Abstract

Technology is pervasive in family life. Family-centered design can enable the creation of technological solutions that align with the diverse needs of and dynamics within families. Yet, designing meaningful interactive technologies that are useful for and desired by families remains a complex and evolving challenge. Furthermore, there are limited resources in the HCI community examining theoretical, methodological, and practical processes for designing and testing technology supporting family life (e.g., interactions among parents, children, siblings, older adults). This workshop aims to bridge this gap by bringing together researchers and practitioners from interdisciplinary areas to discuss practical approaches in applying effective methods, theories, and tools for designing technology for and with families. The main goal of this workshop is to collaborate on creating a knowledge base for family-centered design. The workshop will aim to provide valuable opportunities for researchers and practitioners to grow a community, exchange insights, and share best practices.
