Abstract

Suočavanje s dijagnozom oštećenja vida predstavlja razdoblje intenzivnog stresa kako kod djece
i osoba oštećena vida, tako i kod užih članova obitelji. Prema Tuttle i Tuttle (2004), navedeni
period karakteriziraju jednake faze suočavanja kao suočavanje s bilo kojim traumatskim
događajem. Prethodno navedeno vodi ka razvoju nepovoljnih psihičkih stanja što znatno otežava
traženje adekvatnih oblika podrške i rehabilitacije, odnosno ukazuje na potrebu da informacije
budu dostupne te da im je lako pristupiti. Kao jedan od ključnih razloga nedovoljnog
uključivanja osoba oštećena vida u rehabilitacijske programe navodi se upravo nedovoljna
informiranost o njihovom postojanju. Jedan od osnovnih uzroka nedovoljne informiranosti
upravo je neprilagođenost web okruženja potrebama i specifičnostima senzoričkog oštećenja
osoba oštećena vida kao i karakteristikama perioda suočavanja s dijagnozom. Pretraživanje
podataka na trenutnoj infrastrukturi web okruženja pretpostavlja dobro poznavanje postojećih
usluga od strane osoba oštećena vida. Prethodno navedeno ukazuje na potrebu za poštivanjem
načela univerzalnog dizajna pri dizajniranju web okruženja, koje bi osobama oštećena vida,
osiguralo jednostavnost i povećanje dostupnosti ključnih informacija u poduzimanju inicijalnih
koraka usmjerenih rehabilitaciji i ostvarivanju prava na različitim područjima. Cilj diplomskog
rada je prikaz razvoja web okruženja koje će pratiti načela univerzalnog dizajna kroz poštivanje
specifičnosti senzoričkog oštećenja kroz implementaciju prilagodbe samog dizajna kao i
prilagodbe u organizaciji informacija koje se postavljaju pred osobu oštećena vida
konkretizacijom koraka te sumiranjem ključnih informacija.

Abstract (english)

Dealing with a diagnosis of visual impairment represents a period of intense stress both for
children and visually impaired people, as well as for close family members. According to Tuttle
and Tuttle (2004), the mentioned period is characterized by the same stages of coping as coping
with any traumatic event. The foregoing leads to the conclusion that dealing with unfavorable
psychological conditions makes it much more difficult to seek adequate forms of support and
rehabilitation. Previously mentioned indicates the need for information to be available and easy
to access. One of the key reasons for insufficient inclusion of visually impaired people in
rehabilitation programs is unawareness of their existence. One of the main causes of insufficient
information is the inadequacy of the web environment to the needs and specifics of the sensory
impairment of the visually impaired. Searching data on the current infrastructure of the web
environment assumes a good knowledge of existing services by visually impaired people.
Previously mentioned indicates the need to respect the principles of universal design when
designing a web environment, which would ensure simplicity and increase the availability of key
information for visually impaired people in taking initial steps aimed at rehabilitation and social
rights in various areas. The aim of the thesis is to present the development of a web environment
that will follow the principles of universal design through respect for the specifics of sensory
impairment through the implementation of adaptations of the design itself as well as adaptations
in the organization of information that is presented to a visually impaired person by concretizing
the steps and summarizing key information.
