Abstract

Ubiquitous environments allow different interactions forms throughout sensors and actuators in the environment. The Covid-19 pandemic brought challenges to schools to develop playful activities to students in remote scenarios; this situation is yet more challenging for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This paper investigates the use of ‘Aquarela Virtual’ system, a socioenactive remote system within a pre-school context including an ADHD child. The study uses Thematic Analysis as a method and the UbiAccess as an accessibility evaluation instrument. Results point to uncovered social aspects within the system to allow equitable access.

Keywords: ubiquitous computing, equitable access, evaluation, universal access, socioenactive
