Thema: Contextualising Experiences of Autistic Children with Technologies
Abstract: Experiences in HCI are often assessed with prototypical users in mind. While some established concepts tie experiences back into everyday life, these concepts are applicable only to a limited range of life worlds and often fail to provide methods to reflect this. By looking at autistic children as a user group, my PhD work seeks to reevaluate existing concepts of technological experiences and broaden them in order to deepen the understanding of them. Next to this theoretical work, I will established a systematic methodological tool set assessing the experiences with technologies in a multi-faceted and more holistic way, which allows research into user experience to go beyond questionnaires and interviews in order to better consider its situated context. Through a series of case studies, I will show the feasibility of my approach.
