Paper Abstract:
|
The use of social media plays an important role in our lives. It is crucial that visually impaired (VI) can likewise take part
in various social media platforms. In this paper, we tried to discover the problems and interactions faced by VI on Facebook
with the help of tasks that are prepared beforehand. We, researchers helped the participant to pass the steps required to
complete these predetermined tasks if the participant encountered a problem. According to the first factor, the results are
displayed in terms of points attributed to the steps. Secondly, the time required to complete the task is checked. The third
factor is if the participant had already known it before or not. As a result, findings in terms of usability and accessibility
are discussed. Hence, we tried to find out what can be done to address these issues. |
