Abstract
This paper presents an educational resource to support the teaching of Portuguese sign language. This educational resource emerges in response to the significant needs for the development of adequate digital tools to support deaf people in different tasks, especially in the language learning process. This work is motivated by the results and conclusions from previous studies that identify augmented reality as one of the promising solutions to improve the learning and teaching processes, and benefits from the advances already accomplished in the development and application of augmented reality solutions in several domains of the educational environment. The educational resource presented in this work is an augmented reality solution that enables associating hand gestures, representative of Portuguese sign language, to different cards, which represent different letters of the alphabet. In this way, it is possible to associate the alphabet letters with the respective gestures in a visual and straightforward way, facilitating the learning process.
