Resumen
ANDRADE, Andrea Faria y MONTEIRO, Caroline de Castro. Um estudo sobre a utilização de Símbolos Pictóricos Táteis em Mapas Temáticos para o Ensino de Geografia no âmbito do Desenho Universal. Rev. cartogr. [online]. 2019, n.99, pp.71-94. Epub 14-Mar-2022. ISSN 2663-3981. https://doi.org/10.35424/rcarto.i99.424.
This work aimed to evaluate the use of tactile thematic maps with pictorial symbology, to be used based on the Universal Design for Learning (DUA). Thus, it is possible to use the teaching material by all children, promoting the inclusion of visually impaired students to social experience and communication with visionaries. For that, two maps were made with patterns of distinct symbologies: pictorial and abstract. The maps were modeled in 3D software and printed using Rapid Prototyping technology. Perception tests of these symbologies were performed with visually impaired and visually impaired students in a school in Curitiba, Paraná. From the first results obtained in this research, it is suggested that pictorial symbology be indicated to be used for the representation of punctual features in tactile mapping, as it was more attractive to all participants and stimulated students with visual impairment to social interaction and to use beyond touch, language, which contains the principles of Universal Design. However, as with the use of pictorial symbols for seers, some symbols are apprehended as they are observed and used in everyday life, making them subject to standardization and being used universally. The design of these symbols from 3D printing proved effective because it allows the modeling of complex geometries, which allows the combination of visual and tactile resources to generate maps from the perspective of Universal Design, as well as producing durable and easily reproduced materials.
