Abstract
With the guidelines and inclusion laws of Assistive Technology (TA) features have been developed to promote accessibility. As well as for other interactive products, these must pass to usability evaluations that consider the perspective of the real users. In the traditional approaches of observation of the interaction it is common the use of questionnaires to identify the profile, satisfaction and emotional state of the participants. However, these instruments may be inadequate when their respondents are deaf, not fluent in the Portuguese language. Aiming to promote autonomy for deaf users in the evaluation process of TA resources, this paper describes the planning and conduction of 2 Participatory Design workshops to adapt forms to be answered by deaf people in the context of usability tests. The workshops were held with 2 interpreters of Libras and 20 deaf people, at FUNAD - located in João Pessoa. The results of workshops indicate how appropriate the use of multimedia elements for the questions and answers of the form, such as: videos, animations, images, etc.
