- Published at the leading HCI conference (CHI, acceptance rate 23%), our participatory design framework, Diversity for Design, was the first to provide guidance for technology designers working with neurodiverse children that capitalizes on children's strengths rather than their weaknesses. This has started a movement toward not only designing 'for' neurodivergent children but also 'with' them (Sobel et al., IDC'15). Researchers have adapted the framework for specific conditions (e.g. ADHD, Fekete and Lucero, INTERACT'19). This approach was used in the Eur 2.3 million EC grant on developing integrated intelligent learning environments for reading and writing (iLearnRW, EC ID: 318803).
