A Contribuicao do design para o desenvolvimento de um jogo de tabuleiro e digital bilingue (Libras-Portugues)

Studies reveal the existence, in Brazil, of a significant portion of people with hearing impairment, where 9% were born with this condition and the others acquired it throughout their lives.The principle of equity states that everyone is able to learn, as long as the necessary conditions are offered.Thus, the objective of this work is, through design, to develop a board and digital game to be used as a didactic resource for teaching-learning aimed at elementary school students.To achieve this goal, the design team used the Design Thinking methodology, with a user-centered approach.As a result, we obtained a physical version of the board game only in Portuguese and a digital solution, in Portuguese and Libras.According to the validation carried out, the solution meets the needs of the hearing-impaired public, providing innovative material for the educational field that minimizes barriers to accessing knowledge.
