ABSTRACT

Over the last decade there has been an increased interest in designing for children within the context of HCI. This activity has lead to a community of researchers and practitioners seeking information on best practice on how to work with children. This course will introduce attendees to some of the pitfalls and difficulties when carrying out evaluations with children but will then balance these with tips and tricks, methods and processes that will ensure that anyone attending this course will leave being able to plan and carry out a reasonable and safe evaluation with children.
