Some inquiries have arisen regarding the inclusion of blind students in fashion courses. Would blind students have more learning difficulty on draping? Would it be possible to include blind students in the draping? Willing to reflect on those questions and to explore the idea of teaching draping to the visually impaired the current article has covered the bibliography on teaching, inclusion and the braille system bound to the draping.

O trabalho é um recorte e refere-se a uma pesquisa realizada no plano da pós-graduação em Letras da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo iniciada em 2013, com enfoque no videogame como objeto cultural em interface com a literatura. Este texto oferece um mapeamento, através de um corpus que se originou da coleta de livros, teses, dissertações, monografias e artigos que continham as palavras-chave “videogame”, “leitura” e “literatura” simultaneamente, pesquisas essas que foram feitas majoritariamente nos Estados Unidos. Uma primeira constatação é a de que, fora do Brasil, as pesquisas têm sido feitas de maneira multi e transdisciplinar por acadêmicos de várias áreas de estudos desde a década de 1980 (RUTTER; BRYCE, 2006); no Brasil, a maioria dos estudos com jogos digitais teve início na década de 1990 e está vinculada à ideia de ferramenta lúdica no processo
ensino-aprendizagem, ou seja, são de cunho pedagógico (PERANI, 2008). Através da análise do corpus, foi possível pontuar: a) as áreas de estudo que pesquisam videogames; b) os autores mais recorrentes nos trabalhos brasileiros; c) as contribuições e lacunas das pesquisas no cenário brasileiro.
