Printed Voice

Abstract

This article proposes to develop a block for voice typing in AVA Moodle, focusing on accessibility for people with mobility limitations. To achieve the objective of the work focusing on assistive technology, two types of research were approached: qualitative and exploratory. Initially, the research was divided into two stages. In the first stage, materials such as articles, websites, magazines, among other sources were acquired to build the theoretical foundation of the proposal and, in the second stage, the methods, platforms and languages to be used in the development of the tool were specified. As a result of this work, a block for voice typing was created with the aim of making the AVA Moodle platform accessible to people with mobility limitations. Thus, the user has the possibility of using their voice to make a transcription in text form when carrying out their activities within the VLE Moodle itself. According to the results obtained, the proposed tool was successful in relation to its objective, which consists of creating a voice typing block, in addition to being able to download a text file. The user can use the Printed Voice block to assist in the development of activities or make various notes that require typing, without the need to use the keyboard. Printed Voice was created in a way called “Universal Design”, which makes it accessible to everyone regardless of their skills and/or needs
