摘要 人類在學習過程中80%~90%是經由視覺獲取,但視障者是由殘餘的感官知覺做為主要的學習工具;利用雙手的觸摸體驗判斷所接觸的事物,利用聽覺分辨週遭的環境與空間。本研究以輔助科技提升視障盲童肢體律動之經驗。 首先透過觀察與訪談,了解視障盲者學習上的困難,盲童在學習肢體律動課程時,除聽從老師所發號的指令,老師也必需在旁指導,教學時間相對提高。透過設計發想搭配科技,建構出系統雛型並進行測試。氣流輔助肢體律動器材,運用固定點方式出氣搭配音樂節奏,引導盲童肢體動作,拓展視障盲童的學習環境。研究結論如下: 一、盲童對於氣流的噴氣感到興趣,並可經由出氣的方位隨之擺動肢體,達到律動的效果。 二、盲童在情緒上能夠接受透過氣流的律動引導,會和同儕分享過程。
ABSTRACT This research investigated the difficulties of vision impaired children in their learning process. Vision impaired children like to learn rhythm course, but teachers need to instruct the children personally. In this way, the teacher has to take a lot effort. To assist vision impaired children accumulate more bodily movement experiences, air injection technology is developed to help children along physical body movement. Vision impaired people, however, uses sensory perception as their main learning tool. They use their haptic perception to touch and interpret things through touches. Also, they use their hearing perception to recognize and differentiate surrounding environment. We built a prototype through innovative designs to integrate hardware software and ergonomic considerations. During the test and experiments, the results show the learning efficiency increases. After the observation from children’s response during experiment, it conducted as follow: 1.Vision impaired children is interested in air flow and move their limbs along with the air blowing direction. 2.Through the air flow guidance, vision impaired children evidently became more willing to express and can share their experience with friend.
