Potential of accessible website for elderly - case study research

Digital accessibility refers to a website, mobile application or electronic document that can be easily navigated and understood by a wide range of users, including those who have visual, auditory, motor or cognitive disabilities. Properly designed web and mobile applications possess great potential for removing barriers to communication and interaction that many people face in the digital world and may significantly contribute to the well-being of particularly elderly by offering new possibilities and services not only for active participation in the society, but also for supporting living independently as long as possible. The "Accessible Website for Persons with Disabilities" project is a product of long multidisciplinary cooperation between the University of Zagreb FER and Croatian Regulatory Authority for Network Industries (HAKOM). The project includes several NGOs of persons with disabilities (PWD), students from technical field from Zagreb and Dubrovnik, middle-school students and elderly from retirement homes. The overall research goal is to analyze specific needs of PWD regarding web accessibility in the country and to implement open and innovative solutions for their digital inclusion. One of the results is the accessible web prototype (usluge.ict- aac.hr/pristupacni-web-2) with the purpose of providing information on telecom operators’ offers and benefits to young people, PWD and elderly. The prototype implements different accessibility features and presents the accompanied by corresponding method for developing accessible website that is distributed publicly to help developers and designers in their effort of accessible website development. Prototype evaluation was performed in several iterations and representatives of elderly from retirement homes also took part in this process, the oldest participant was 89. Finally, total of 61.3% of respondents state that all accessibility options are fully implemented while 34.2% state that accessibility options are partly implemented. Part of the research performed in collaboration with the representatives of elderly focusing on those living in a nursing home shows that most of the elderly who use ICT need additional support mostly to communicate with the family and friends. This collaboration discovered new insights on what the elderly really expects the most from the digital world, as well as new ways of engaging students of technical studies in improving digital inclusion of elderly. So new course named "Application of technical knowledge for socially useful purposes" is starting at FER where students will apply their knowledge to provide support also for elderly.
