Resumen
Descripción
The accessibility of students with visual disabilities in education is a concern. Adequate compatibility in learning management systems (LMS) with screen readers, handling of alternative formats, and better treatment for graphic elements are issues that negatively impact the learning experience of this population. This work presents a qualitative study on the perception that blind people have about LMSs, identifying points for improvement and offering some guidelines for developing and using LMSs. In summary, blind students expect more conscious teachers to promote inclusion in the classroom, offer diverse options, and ensure opportunity and equity. People with special needs must be involved during systems development and thus consider their needs. © 2024, Associacao Iberica de Sistemas e Tecnologias de Informacao. All rights reserved.
