Abstract:
In this paper, we describe an audio-haptic drawing application prototype that has recently been tested by five pupils who are 8-13 years. The application has been used by pupils, assistants and teachers to access graphics and create graphics that are accessible for pupils with severe visual impairment or blindness. We have observed a spread in the actual use of the system that seems to depend, for example, on the special pedagogical knowledge of teachers and assistants, their learning focus, and the age of the pupil when they start using the system.
