NoteBlock: Prototype Design of Music Learning Experience for Blind and Low Vision Children in Preschool Ages
This research aims to create an interactive music learning device, NoteBlock, for Blind or Low Vision (BLV) children. Through research on music learning-related designs and interactive designs suitable for BLV children, NoteBlock proposes a prototype for preschool children to understand music notes and motivate their interest in music. This research aims to investigate the mental model of BLV children through feasibility testing, primarily enhancing user experience based on the design concepts of ergonomics and universal design. Overall, NoteBlock proved engaging and effective interaction in music education. Further improvements suggested a broader usability.
