Abstract

Traditionally, text-to-speech has helped people overcome decoding difficulties with learning or hearing disabilities. Thanks to technological advances, consuming content in which learners use text and audio is more common. However, sign language allows an improvement in the transfer of knowledge and the integration of students with functional diversity. This tool allows the simultaneous translation into sign language of the teacher or speaker and dynamizes the learning of this by the classmates, improving the possibilities of socialization and exchange. In order to test the functionality of the application, a pilot test was carried out with the students of the Teaching Degree in the Special Educational Needs specialty in five face-to-face sessions. Among the contents that these students must acquire is the knowledge of sign language, valuing the application as very useful for learning and classroom use of this tool. It can also be used to promote communication between professionals in the workplace. In conclusion, we can highlight creating a tool for simultaneous translation into sign language applicable to the educational and socio-labor fields.
