The present research investigates, from the place of interdisciplinarity, favoring the possible theoretical interactions between Drawing and its senses, and the culture that surrounds it, the design of the screens of the Duolingo application in its Web and Mobile format, with the purpose of understanding how screen design proposes communication between machine and human, seeking to understand drawing as a language, as a means that mediates a relationship, and which goes far beyond the graphic representation on a sheet of paper. analysis of the web and mobile interface, as a visual image, how the design of the screens proposes a communication, and builds its learning environment. This work sought, therefore, to reflect on the concepts of design and cyberculture, how they materialize their interaction in Duolingo, in addition to thinking about possible ways of performing a visual analysis adequate to the specificities of the investigated object.In this qualitative research, I present a set of images collected from the use of the application in its two formats, over two years of research, including the text images that could best demonstrate the investigated phenomena.
