| Abstract | Universities have become more and more computerized, and, because of that, there’s an ever higher demand on developing academic-administrative systems. It is important that these systems be accessible to everyone, therefore it is crucial that said accessibility be in mind from the very beginning of the development process. There is, however, a further step of complexity in the creation of systems focused on accessibility and usability. In this work, we demonstrate the development of our system, which follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) directives and also Nielsen’s 10 Usability Heuristics. Interwoven with the two abovementioned needs, we were able to identify some necessities and problems from students and coordinations that could be improved by introducing an informational system. Our goal, then, became not only to solve those problems, but also to make sure that each and every user is able to access every piece of content of the system. To achieve that, steps such as the analysis of similar systems, the application of questionnaires and the interviewing of possible users were done, in order to elaborate system requirements, user personas/scenarios, with the sole purpose of assisting us with the process of understanding the problems we faced and developing the system. With the purpose of guaranteeing the desired result, we evaluated the levels of accessibility and usability, through the use of automated tools and a questionnaire used to assess the two concepts. Both methods allowed us to reach the conclusion that the developed system is in agreement with the WCAG guidelines and Nielsen’s heuristics. Our system meets the needs of students and coordinations of the Federal Fluminense University, contemplating many tasks labeled as being of high priority in our survey, with the main focus being on the activities revolving around the beginning of a semester. It also was developed to be responsive and accessible while browsing from mobile devices. Finally, we concluded through our results that the adopted methodology was suitable, as it guided us to develop a system with not only good user accessibility and usability, but also that meets user’s needs. |
