Ability-Based Design

Jacob O. Wobbrock, Shaun K. Kane, Krzysztof Z. Gajos et al. · 1 Apr 2011

Current approaches to accessible computing share a common goal of making technology accessible to users with disabilities. Perhaps because of this goal, they may also share a tendency to centralize disability rather than ability. We present a refinement to these approaches called ability-based design that consists of focusing on ability throughout the design process in…

Self-Conscious or Self-Confident? A Diary Study Conceptualizing the Social Accessibility of Assistive Technology

Kristen Shinohara, Jacob O. Wobbrock · 13 Jan 2016

With the recent influx of smartphones, tablets, and wearables such as watches and glasses, personal interactive device use is increasingly visible and commonplace in public and social spaces. Assistive Technologies (ATs) used by people with disabilities are observable to others and, as a result, can affect how AT users are perceived. This raises the possibility…

How Older Adults Learn to Use Mobile Devices

Rock Leung, Charlotte Tang, Shathel Haddad et al. · 1 Dec 2012

Mobile computing devices, such as smart phones, offer benefits that may be especially valuable to older adults (age 65+). Yet, older adults have been shown to have difficulty learning to use these devices. In the research presented in this article, we sought to better understand how older adults learn to use mobile devices, their preferences…

The Current Status of Accessibility in Mobile Apps

Shunguo Yan, P. G. Ramachandran · 11 Feb 2019

This study evaluated the status of accessibility in mobile apps by investigating the graphical user interface (GUI) structures and conformance to accessibility guidelines of 479 Android apps in 23 business categories from Google Play. An automated tool, IBM Mobile Accessibility Checker (MAC), was used to identify the accessibility issues, which were categorized as a violation…

Investigating the Implications of 3D Printing in Special Education

Erin Buehler, Niara Comrie, Megan Hofmann et al. · 18 Mar 2016

Consumer-grade digital fabrication such as 3D printing is on the rise, and we believe it can be leveraged to great benefit in special education. Although 3D printing is infiltrating mainstream education, little research has explored 3D printing in the context of students with special support needs. We describe our studies on this topic and the…
