I have special needs! the case for cerebral palsy
pp. 214-222
Abstract
The HCI community has an important task of bringing the requirements of people with special needs to the forefront. Thus, all involved can help inform the design of systems that promote quality of life, inclusion and citizenship for a large portion of individuals and groups. This article presents a process that draws from universal and participatory design, as well as intellectual tools, such as mental and empathy maps, to help designers to inform design of artifacts. As per the proposed framework, it also presents a set of suggestions of artifacts and systems to be built that are centered on persons with Cerebral Palsy.
