| contents | An Approach for e-inclusion: Bringing illiterates and disabled people into play Juliano Castilho Dall'Antonia Giovanni Moura de Holanda Ingeniería ICT inclusion digital divide disabled people functional illiterate In emergent economies, the continued process of digitalizing the ICTs, summed up with some sociocultural particularities and poverty, contributes to cleave the society into two groups: the connected and the increasingly more disconnected or socially excluded. However, efforts to effectively narrow this kind of divide transcends the provision of access to web and other digital networks, mainly if the attention is focused on people with disabilities and lack of literacy. For these social groups, accessibility and intelligibility are the key barriers to e-society. A manner to mitigate then is the objective of an ongoing research project in which we are engaged and that comprises the elaboration and application of a methodology for developing solutions to e-inclusion in Brazil. This paper presents the central aspects of such an approach, focusing on some activities which go beyond the connectivity provision and may help the most excludeds in bridging the divide. 2006 artículo científico 0718-2724 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=84710304 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=847 Journal of Technology Management & Innovation application/pdf Universidad Alberto Hurtado Journal of Technology Management & Innovation (Chile) Num.3 Vol.1 |
