Project description:
Accessible e-forms are developed together with clients as "experts by experience". Residents of residential homes and assisted living in Fulda (Caritas) and Wiesbaden (Verein für Innere Mission EVIM) as well as the expert group from the field of self-help of the Institute for Person-Centred Support at the University of Applied Sciences Fulda are involved in the project. In cooperation with computer scientists, barrier-free navigation, presentation and interactive form design are being developed for people with so-called mental and multiple disabilities such as people with mental illnesses. This is done using the example of overall plans/participation plans. Individual elements are evaluated both in terms of software technology and social science. The project attempts to implement technical aids for participation and enables insights into the barrier-free design of forms and websites.
