Resumo: In a world that is increasingly dominated by computers and their digital systems, computer accessibility resources play their full role in achieving the objective of assistive technologies. The present study aimed to present the DOSVOX program as an assistive technology that helps the process of school inclusion of blind students with visual impairment, through a mini course in distance learning that sought to guide teachers about the use of this Assistive technology. The methodology used was an exploratory, qualitative field research and was guided by three main points: the importance of using computer accessibility resources in the classroom; the lack of knowledge of these resources by most teachers; and the need to spread the use of Assistive Technologies. A to promote inclusive environments. The research approach followed the participatory model, employing semi-structured interviews for data collection. Regarding the results obtained, we could see that the knowledge of education professionals about AT is low. In this way, a change in attitude and a search for knowledge that promotes accessibility is relevant, aiming to effectively contribute to the educational development of students with visual impairments.

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo presentar el programa DOSVOX como una tecnología asistida que ayuda en el proceso de inclusión escolar de los estudiantes ciegos con discapacidad visual, a través de un minicurso en educación a distancia que buscó orientar a los docentes sobre el uso de esta tecnología asistida. La metodología utilizada fue una investigación de campo cualitativa y exploratoria y estuvo guiada por tres puntos principales: la importancia de utilizar los recursos informáticos de accesibilidad en el aula; el desconocimiento de estos recursos por parte de la mayoría de los docentes; y la necesidad de difundir el uso de Tecnologías de Asistencia. A para promover entornos inclusivos. El enfoque de investigación siguió el modelo participativo, empleando entrevistas semiestructuradas para la recolección de datos. En cuanto a los resultados obtenidos, pudimos observar que el conocimiento de los profesionales de la educación sobre las TA es considerablemente bajo. De esta manera, es relevante un cambio de actitud y una búsqueda del conocimiento que promueva la accesibilidad, con el objetivo de contribuir de manera efectiva al desarrollo educativo de los estudiantes con discapacidad visual.Em se tratando de um mundo que se torna, cada vez mais, dominado pela informática e seus sistemas digitais, os recursos de acessibilidade ao computador exercem sua plena contribuição para que seja cumprido o objetivo das Tecnologia assistivas. O presente estudo teve por finalidade apresentar o programa DOSVOX como uma tecnologia assistiva que auxilia o processo de inclusão escolar de alunos cegos com deficiência visual, através de um minicurso em Ensino a distância que procurou orientar professores, acerca da utilização desta tecnologia Assistiva. A metodologia empregada foi uma pesquisa de campo, exploratória, qualitativa e se orientou com base em três pontos principais: a importância do emprego dos recursos de acessibilidade ao computador em sala de aula; a falta de conhecimento desses recursos por boa parte dos professores; e a necessidade de se difundir o uso das Tecnologias assistivas. A para promover ambientes inclusivos. A abordagem da pesquisa seguiu o modelo participativo, empregando entrevistas semiestruturadas para a coleta dos dados. Em relação aos resultados obtidos, pudemos constatar que o conhecimento dos profissionais da educação acerca das TA é consideravelmente baixo. Desse modo, faz-se relevante uma mudança de atitude e busca por conhecimentos que promovam acessibilidade, objetivando contribuir efetivamente para o desenvolvimento educacional dos alunos com deficiência visual.Research, Society and Development2022-08-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3146310.33448/rsd-v11i11.31463Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 11; e105111131463Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 11; e105111131463Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 11; e1051111314632525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/31463/28248Copyright (c) 2022 Cristiano Marins Moreira; Kelly Cristina Martins; Ruth Maria Mariani Braz; Dagmar Mello e Silvahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoreira, Cristiano Marins Martins, Kelly Cristina Braz, Ruth Maria Mariani Silva, Dagmar Mello e 2022-09-05T13:24:46Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/31463Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:47:47.815730Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
