| 抄録: | In modern society competence in giving presentations is required more and more by professionals, regardless of their occupation. Blind professionals also face the challenge of having to make presentations in their workplace and in the community. In July 2004 we surveyed the use of IT by blind professionals for the preparing and delivering of presentations. Sixty-nine blind people responded. Subjects of the survey included acupuncturists, school teachers, college professors, office workers, and other professionals. One third of them do presentations using a computer, either by themselves or with an assistant, e.g., class lectures, speeches, and addresses in meetings.We found that although some severely visually-impaired people are using the PC for presentations, difficulties, i.e., insufficient access tools, still exist for those who would like to independently prepare and give a presentation, thereby mandating the need for sighted assistance. The function they mostly want to be built into presentation software for the blind is the capability of adding on-the-spot comments during the speech. Presenters who do not use presentation software now acknowledge the necessity of getting presentation software into their work environment. We are developing new software to rectify this situation. |
