Abstract:
The design of multimedia systems in the e-learning context poses
several challenges in term of developing usable and accessible applications.
This paper presents a case study related to VisualPedia, a collaborative
multimedia e-learning system, whose software lifecycle has followed a
participatory design and the analysis of specific phenomena characterizing the
HCI process. The goal of this work is to highlight that the adoption of these
approaches from the early design phase will lead to make useful, usable and
accessible multimedia interactive systems. Results are validated by showing
some usability and accessibility analysis carried out in the context of the
VisualPedia development process.
