53 -Virtual Environment to Support Societal participation Education of Low-literates
54 54  * disability/ problem:
55 55  ** Low-Literates, that have problems in reading media and instructions, filling out forms, financial management, ...
56 56  ** leads to shame in isolation of that person
57 57  ** stagnating general development
58 -* solution:
59 -** personal learning environment to exercise practical situations
60 -** Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) that guides the learning process to improve learner's self-efficacy
61 -** practice general situations (e.g. Citizen's office) and useful tasks (e.g. filling out forms)
62 -** comprehensive learning support: combination of social, cognitive and effective support supports improvement of self-efficacy
63 -ECA tries to motivate and encourage the user to do the tasks

69 -* during the evaluation of an exoskeleton, they found out that lots of difficulties occured due to diversity:
70 -** man <-> woman
71 -** person sitting in wheelchair <-> healthy person
72 -* women had pain using the exoskeleton, that men didn't have
73 -* lessons learned: involve user form the earliest stages in your design, not only in the evaluation

117 -Since our robot is made to be used by people with dementia we have to consider the following possible disabilities:
118 -* cognitive disability
119 -** memory
120 -** orientation -> wandering
121 -* motor
122 -** limited endurance, strength, range of motion (due to old age)
123 -** use of mobility assistance ("Rollator")
124 -* slow movement and processing of environment, speech etc.
125 -* difficulties in seeing: especially small things, reading screens (Varifocal glasses)
126 -* difficulties in hearing: high frequencies, silent speech/ sounds
127 -
128 -of course, there can be several other disabilities that are not related to old age or dementia.

130 -How to address these disabilities and make our robot accessible to them:
131 -* cognitive disability:
132 -
133 -* motor
134 -** no need, since pepper is also kind of "disabled" in motion and can't handle stairs:D
135 -** pepper can be used without motions, pressing buttons etc.

137 -* slow movement and processing of environment, speech etc.:
138 -** reduce speed of peppers speech (there is a toolbar to lower the speed)
139 -** use easy language
140 -** underline what has been said by showing images on the tablet. Don't switch the images to fast
