Designing for Inaccessible People and Places
Speaker: Judy Bowen – Hamilton, New ZealandTopic(s): Human Computer Interaction , Software Engineering and Programming
Abstract
The benefits of participatory and co-design are well understood and form the foundation of much of the research and development work undertaken within human-centred computing. However, these assume that we have appropriate access to the people we are designing for and that these groups are willing, and able, to engage in such design processes. In this talk I discuss some of the challenges that can arise, related to distance, accessibility of participants, participant dynamics and domains of use. I present concrete examples of how we tackled these and present solutions which can be applied more generally across real-world design problems.About this Lecture
