Clube das Minas : Uma plataforma digital para apoiar a escrita feminina na literatura

Abstract

Literature has historically been dominated by male voices, with women writers facing significant challenges to be recognized and valued. This problem involves the invisibility of women in literature, the marginalization and silencing of their works throughout history. Given this context, the objective of this work is the development of a digital tool called Clube das Minas, to support women’s literature, rescuing and valuing female writers who were neglected by literary tradition. The project used the Double Diamond methodology, consisting of four steps: discover, define, develop and deliver. As a platform validation strategy, usability tests were carried out with potential users. The results were positive, with good acceptance and interest in the project. In addition, suggestions for improvements were identified, such as implementing a night mode and improving the visualization of reading material. For the future, it is intended to carry out these improvements, in addition to implementing new features, such as the creation of a virtual community and the inclusion of works by writers from Ceará.
