Abstract

The research project aims to improve the scientific student with software engineering studies, design and documentation software, advanced programming techniques, software coding and Assistive Technology focused on computer use. It is proposed to develop a software project aimed at the early stages of kindergarten Accessibility and activities on the recognition of colors and painting. The project aims to contribute to the teaching / learning process of students with special educational needs and is designed with the automatic scanning tool, allowing use by students with reduced mobility in the upper limbs and / or severe physical disabilities and / or generalized dystonia. The software project will guideline the principle of autonomy, that is, once started running, students with disabilities will be able to carry out all activities regardless of the actions of third parties.
