Abstract

The design of the tool mediated by (ICT) promotes the training of teachers in the inclusive classroom in care for children with hearing disabilities for an educational system on equal terms. The User-Centered Design (UCD) methodology, the Concur Method Tasks Trees (CTT) and the open source implementation allowed the development of the tool; the usability test System Usability Scale (SUS) provided perception data to support teacher training in the inclusive classroom, especially for children with hearing impairment. The test (SUS) was applied to 12 teachers, the result of the study indicates that the usability of all the tools is above the standards (72.5), equivalent to a very good rating. The design and implementation of the tool led to the acceptance by teachers for training in the inclusive classroom; in addition to needing a teacher training program, where children with disabilities and learning disorders are cared for.
