SignaApp a modern alternative to support signwriting notation for sign languages

The present work reports the development of an application called Signa App, which was designed following the philosophy of User-Centered De-sign. Signa App aims to provide a mobile platform for editing and creating texts in SignWriting notation. The proposal was based on the lack of a mo-bile application that is usable for Deaf individuals who use sign language. The application was tested with adults, children, and adolescents, and the results showed a high degree of acceptance and ease of use. The app has al-ready been introduced to the SignWriting user community, receiving posi-tive feedback. Likewise, the application is available on the Google Play Store

Analysis of User Experience Evaluation Methods for Deaf users: A Case Study on a mobile App

User Experience (UX) evaluation methods that are commonly used with hearing users may not be functional or effective for Deaf users. This is because these methods are primarily designed for users with hearing abilities, which can create limitations in the interaction, perception, and understanding of the methods for Deaf individuals. Furthermore, traditional UX evaluation approaches often fail to address the unique accessibility needs of Deaf users, resulting in an incomplete or biased assessment of their user experience. This research focused on analyzing a set of UX evaluation methods recommended for use with Deaf users, with the aim of validating the accessibility of each method through findings and limitations. The results indicate that, although these evaluation methods presented here are commonly recommended in the literature for use with Deaf users, they present various limitations that must be addressed in order to better adapt to the communication skills specific to the Deaf community. This research concludes that evaluation methods must be adapted to ensure accessible software evaluation for Deaf individuals, enabling the collection of data that accurately reflects their experiences and needs.
