The Portuguese ColorADD app has won the international Vodafone Foundation Mobile for Good Europe Award 2013 in the Accessibility category. ColorADD enables 1. (over 30 million people worldwide) to detect the colours of objects via a mobile phone camera, so ensuring equal accessibility for all where 2. in identification, guidance and choice (such as public transport lines or hospital triage). The way the app works is simple: the user points the phone camera 3. and the name of the colour appears at the top of the screen together with the 4.. As well as analysing images in real time, the user can analyse previously recorded images. The images so generated can be shared.. The Portuguese developers responsible for the ColorADD app received in Brussels the award of 30,000 euros to be invested in 6.. Part of the amount will enable us to improve the app s performance, finish the Android and Windows Mobile versions (currently the app exists only for iphone) and add new features to the existing version 7.

3 ACTIVITY B 1. Read the following article about ColorADD Try to imagine being unable to distinguish green from blue. What impact would this have on your daily life? For the colour-blind, simple things like crossing the street, shopping for clothes or navigating the tube can become extremely complicated. However, this may now be aided by something known as ColorADD. ColorADD is a colour identification system that allows the colour-blind to identify colours using a code. This colour-blind alphabet, composed of simple, universal shapes, was created by the Portuguese graphic designer Miguel Neiva as part of his master s thesis. Starting with the idea that most visual communication relies on colours, Neiva realized that colour vision defects are seldom taken into account by graphic designers. Although one-tenth of the male population is affected by colour-blindness, nothing had been done to provide them with a tool that would help them in their everyday life. Neiva started by sending surveys to colourblindness sufferers across the world. The study revealed that 42% of those surveyed found it hard to fully integrate into society, and 88% had trouble choosing what to wear every day. This led Neiva to create the ColorADD project, aiming to facilitate colour identification for the colour-blind while contributing to their social integration and welfare, making communication more efficient, responsible and inclusive. Creating a graphic code that would be easy to understand and to memorize took eight years of hard work. The system is composed of monochromatic icons that symbolise a range of colours. The basis of this system is the primary colours, represented by three forms that can be mixed together to create a diversity of tones. The possible applications of this code are wide-ranging, especially in aspects of life where colour aids or influences decision-making. One of the biggest projects ColorADD is currently working on is the 2016 Olympic Games, to be held in Rio de Janeiro, where the colour identification system might be useful for visitor accessibility. For Neiva, the best appreciation of his work is by people with colour-blindness themselves: testimony from all over the world arrives daily in his mailbox. Some of this contact is sceptical and even critical, pointing out the difficulties of associating a colour with a sign if you cannot conceptualize the colour, memorising all the figures, and not becoming confused by the orientation. Yet, even the most critical remarks praise the ColorADD system as the first initiative to fully include the colour-blind in society. The fact that it is a designer and not an ophthalmologist that developed this system shows that initiatives aiming at helping the community can spring from anywhere. (adapted and abridged), accessed in February What or who do these words refer to? a. this (l. 2) b. his (l. 11) c. them (l. 14) d. those (l. 1) e. where (l. 26)

4 3. Find the words in the text that mean the same as the following. a. depends on b. faults c. rarely d. wellbeing e. at the present moment f. jump out 4. Answer the following questions using your own words as far as possible. 4.1 What is ColorADD and why is it an innovative system? 4.2 Is ColorADD praised by everybody? 4.3 Answer the question the author poses in his/her text: Try to imagine being unable to distinguish green from blue. What impact would this have on your daily life?. Rewrite the following sentences as indicated below. a. ColorADD has a fantastic app now, but not everybody knows about it. In spite of b. Miguel Neiva is not colour-blind; however, he created a code system for colour-blind people. Although c. Communication is easier now than it used to be in the past; however, some people still don t have Internet at home. Despite d. Though communication technology is being developed more and more, it is not available to everyone equally. In spite of ACTIVITY C In about 120 words write an article for a teen magazine about digital media and accessibility in which you discuss the following statement. Accessibility encompasses more than kerb cuts and wheelchair ramps. It is about being able to communicate with people.

5 ANSWER KEY Activity A d. 2. h. 3. j. 4. i.. a. 6. e. 7. c. 8. g. 9. f. 10. b.. a. having a fantastic app now, not everybody knows about ColorADD. b. Miguel Neiva is not colour-blind, he created a code system for colour-blind people. c. it being easier to communicate now than it used to be in the past, some people still don t have Internet at home. d. communication technology being developed more and more, it is not available to everyone equally.

Miguel Neiva c. colour-blind people d. people surveyed e. the 2016 Olympic Games, in Rio de Janeiro 3. a. relies on b. defects c. seldom d. welfare e. currently f. spring Model Answer: ColorADD is a colour identification system for colour-blind people. It allows them to identify colours using a code of different shapes, and it is an innovative system because it is the first tool of this kind aimed at this segment of society. 4.2 Model Answer: No, it isn t. Some colour-blind people criticise it because they experience some difficulties in associating colours with signs, as they don t recognise colours. They also think the code is difficult to memorise and so the guidance is confuse. 4.3 Personal answer.
