ABSTRACT
Software facilitates the interaction of people with disabilities with the world, technology and other resources, including foreign language learning. However, there is a lack for software to support the teaching process for people with visual impairment. Learning a foreign language provides personal, professional and cultural development. This paper presents a research that aims to answer the following questions: what are the existing methods for teaching visually impaired people? What are the existing methods for teaching foreign languages? Which are the existing software to support the teaching of foreign languages for the visually impaired people? To answer these questions, a systematic mapping about software that aim to teach foreign languages for visually impaired people was conducted. In this article, we present the papers that focus on the teaching people with visual impairment or teaching foreign language, discussing the main teaching techniques used and software proposed.
