We report initial results of the codesign process of a software platform aimed to support the development of reading and writing skills among deaf students at the elementary level. This platform is one of the main outcomes set out for a broad multi-institutional, multi-disciplinary deaf literacy project. As one of the initial user research activities, we held a co-creation workshop with six deaf participants, one sign language interpreter, and four hearing researchers. In this workshop we explored the application of a design technique intended to enhance participation and communication by relying on low-tech tangible representations of interface components that can be combined to generate interaction designs. Through observation during the workshop and analysis of video recordings we have derived adaptations and adjustments to our approach for its application in upcoming codesign activities.
