Evaluating Interactive Technology with Children

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: While evaluating technology with adults is well understood, evaluating interactive technology with child users has received far less attention and raises a range of unusual and unexpected challenges. With more children than ever before using interactive technology on a daily basis, this course, for practitioners and researchers, aims to provide a succinct and useful introduction to evaluating technology with children. The course begins with the developmental and ethical challenges of working with children, then covers a range of foundational evaluation techniques, along with how techniques are used and how results are reported both in publications and to child audiences.
