A pesquisa busca identificar as questões relacionadas aos estudos de Comunicação na Usabilidade de interfaces. O estudo é desenvolvido com revisão bibliográfica da Interação Humano-Computador e da Usabilidade. As revisões da interação humano-computador se dá considerando três principais eixos: Engenharia de software, Engenharia de Fatores Humanos e Design gráfico. Neste sentido, faz-se um recorte na importância das investigações e das propriedades comunicacionais que viriam a surgir nas relações suportadas pela interface de sistemas e das qualidades e características que determinam a usabilidade de interfaces. Observa-se que, apesar das características e propriedades comunicacionais serem intrínsecas as tecnologias digitais da informação, o envolvimento da Comunicação nestes processos de investigação ou construção de tecnologias interativas são superficiais e oferecem certo distanciamento dos aspectos tecnológicos. Denota-se, portanto, que as contribuições sobre aspectos da interação entre homem e máquina suportadas por interfaces comunicacionais são estritamente técnicas e oriundas de outros campos do conhecimento, apesar da existência da Teoria Mátemática da Comunicação e da sua origem em meios técnicos de comunicação como o telégráfo. Verifica-se assim a possibilidade de um maior envolvimento da Comunicação não apenas nas investigações relacionadas à usabilidade de sistemas interativos, como também na contribuição dos seus processos de desenvolvimento de sistemas baseados em diálogos.

This study aims to assess the usability of Interactive Materials developed for the courses offered by UFRN SEDIS the modality of distance education (DE), using the techniques of focus group cooperative evaluation and assessment of satisfaction. The Interactive Materials are intended to serve as an avenue where the course content reaches the student in an educational, stimulating and self-instructive enough for the student to engage and find no difficulty in using it so. After the survey data in this context were selected four Interactive Materials ("Introduction to Applied Calculus", "Science, Technology and Society", "studies the Semi-Arid" and "Cultural Geography") that adopt the framework established by UFRN for SEDIS be evaluated for their usability. Initially, a preliminary test was conducted from cooperative assessment with a student interacting with the four learning objects in order to reveal and map the major failures of usability, supporting deeper questions later. The recordings of this preliminary test were analyzed by a focus group composed of two graphic designers and two multimedia designers, and developers responsible for these objects, which helped to analyze the gap between "what was designed" and "as was used "structuring and supplementing the roadmap for cooperative evaluation and assessment of subsequent satisfaction. The cooperative evaluation was applied individually to ten students of undergraduate UFRN that tested each of the four materials. At the end, every student completed a questionnaire assessing satisfaction form adapted Wanted (Questionnaire for User Interaction Satisfaction). The analysis of the data collected in this study revealed positive, negative and notes to be considered to guide the future development of Interactive Materials, in the context of UFRN SEDIS, feedback to the process of design and evaluation with user participation

The electronic journals correspond publishing channels and dissemination of scientific information. Through them, users can spread their studies as well as developing new researches. One of the systems used for creation and e-journals management is the Electronic System for Journal Publishing (SEER), used in the construction of periodic portals, as well as the creation of magazines in isolation. In this purport, it is believed that the management systems and creation of e-journals should be developed (internally and externally) according to the needs of its users. In the case of internal development, some of these processes refer to the copyright registration and submission of articles, which, in turn, are relevant tasks in the editorial process. Thus, the proposed study, thematic Usability of scientific journals, aims to analyze the usability of the copyright registration process and submission of articles in the Electronic System for Journal Publishing through BiblioCanto magazine, part of the Electronic Journals Portal of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN). For the realization of the research, two valuation techniques were used: the Usability Test with a total of twenty participants and the Cooperative Evaluation, with the same number of participants separated in four categories considered target audience of that magazine, namely: undergraduate students, graduate students, teachers and librarians. The results indicated that the two analyzed processes (copyright registration and submission of articles) need improvement. In the case of the registration process, the following needs are: signalizing of the conducting registration ambient; description and exclusion of requested information on the registration form. In the process of article submission, it is emphasized improvement of aspects: the early steps to submission, signaling of required fields, concise description of the steps, minimization and review of the steps. To this end, it is believed that in general idea the SEER partially meets the needs of its users regarding the usability of such software.

Avaliação de usabilidade é um processo importante durante o desenvolvimento de um software, seja ele para um sistema web ou mobile. No caso de um sistema mobile, o custo é bastante oneroso, tanto no que se refere à mão de obra especializada, como de recursos tecnológicos utilizados, tornando essa avaliação de usabilidade ainda mais importante. Além disso, as versões webdos sistemas SIG da UFRN já estão consolidadas e com uma grande aceitação, fazendo com que suas versões mobile tenham, ainda mais, a preocupação de lançar um produto de boa qualidade para manter essa credibilidade dos sistemas SIG , tanto na UFRN, como nas demais instituições que utilizam esses sistemas. Com este trabalho, buscou-se identificar algumas diretrizes de interface que possam ser utilizadas no processo de desenvolvimento dos sistemas SIG Mobile, mais especificamente o SIGAA Mobile, de modo a facilitar o desenvolvimento de novas funcionalidades voltadas para estes sistemas. Para isso, foi realizada uma avaliação de usabilidade no Portal do Aluno do SIGAA Mobile Android, tomando como base padrões de interface já existentes na literatura. Posteriormente, foi aplicado um questionário com os usuários do sistema para coletar as opiniões e sugestões dos mesmos. De posse de todos esses dados coletados, foi possível definir algumas diretrizes de interface a serem seguidas como recomendações no processo de desenvolvimento dos sistemas SIG Mobile.

O Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo (TEA) caracteriza-se por uma série de distúrbios cognitivos e neurocomportamentais e sua prevalência mundial é estimada em 1 criança com TEA a cada 160 crianças com típico desenvolvimento (TD). Indivíduos com TEA apresentam dificuldade em interpretar as emoções alheias e em expressar sentimentos. As emoções podem ser associadas à manifestação de sinais fisiológicos, e, dentre eles, os sinais cerebrais têm sido muito abordados. A detecção dos sinais cerebrais de crianças com TEA pode ser benéfica para o esclarecimento de suas emoções e expressões. Atualmente, muitas pesquisas integram a robótica ao tratamento pedagógico do TEA, através da interação com crianças com esse transtorno, estimulando habilidades sociais, como a imitação e a comunicação. A avaliação dos estados mentais de crianças com TEA durante a sua interação com um robô móvel é promissora e assume um aspecto inovador. Assim, os objetivos deste trabalho foram captar sinais cerebrais de crianças com TEA e de crianças com TD, como grupo controle, para o estudo de seus estados emocionais e para avaliar seus estados mentais durante a interação com um robô móvel, e avaliar também a interação dessas crianças com o robô, através de escalas quantitativas. A técnica de registro dos sinais cerebrais escolhida foi a eletroencefalografia (EEG), a qual utiliza eletrodos colocados de forma não invasiva e não dolorosa sobre o couro cabeludo da criança. Os métodos para avaliar a eficiência do uso da robótica nessa interação foram baseados em duas escalas internacionais quantitativas: Escala de Alcance de Metas (do inglês Goal Attainment Scaling - GAS) e Escala de Usabilidade de Sistemas (do inglês System Usability Scale - SUS). Os resultados obtidos mostraram que, pela técnica de EEG, foi possível classificar os estados emocionais de crianças com TD e com TEA e analisar a atividade cerebral durante o início da interação com o robô, através dos ritmos alfa e beta. Com as avaliações GAS e SUS, verificou-se que o robô móvel pode ser considerado uma potencial ferramenta terapêutica para crianças com TEA.
