Published: 22 April 2009 Publication History

Abstract

In order to develop a useful system for teaching and learning, the system should be designed for the needs and capabilities of the users for whom they are intended. Before developing any systems a User-Centered Design Process is always foremost to carry out. Therefore this paper will summarize main principles of user-centered design, and user-centered design process. This paper will also detail the design and development of a multimedia system for students with deafness.
