Participatory Design for Inclusion and Empowerment
The Informatics Seminar Series present Foad Hamidi, Research Assistant Professor, University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
In this talk, Professor Hamidi presents several research projects that underline the importance of including diverse perspectives when creating digital systems. These projects include the participatory design and evaluation of a digital living media system that engages children through dynamics of caring and responsibility, the development of a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) prototyping platform for the creation of audio interfaces for children with disabilities, and a study of the perceptions and attitudes of individuals with diverse identities towards automatic recognition technology.
