Abstract

Development processes of information systems must focus on the end user’s needs for ensuring their effective satisfaction by the high degree of  usability, accessibility and quality. A practice that can be used to collect, analyze and design information in these processes is the Participatory Design (DP), which includes the participation of all stakeholders, such as developers, users, employees and partners, in the development process. Considering this context, this paper aims to explore this practice, which is still little employed in Software Engineering and Information Science, providing support in choosing and treatment of information. The research methodology used involves  descriptive and exploratory analysis as well as technical procedures of bibliographic and documental research. Our results are some DP’s principle and practice like the participation of the users by testimonials, workshops, models, description of scenarios, card-sorting, social
