(apologies if you receive this more than once) DESIGN TO READ - Designing for people who do not read easily
A workshop at HCI 2008, Liverpool John Moores University, 2 September 2008 Workshop website http://www.cs.mdx.ac.uk/research/idc/designtoread/ How should we design for people who do not read easily? Many people do not read easily. This might be because of an impairment or disability, poor access to literacy or because English is not their first language. In addition to reading the text itself, there are often other barriers or obstructions to reading, often because of poor design, layout or use of language. The workshop aims to be initial and exploratory, appealing to a range of academics, researchers and design practitioners who not only want to share knowledge and experience but ultimately have the goal of ensuring that our designs work well for everyone who does not read easily. TO PARTICIPATE, send your position papers to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Or feel welcome to ask me any questions about the workshop. We'd like to get position papers or expressions of interest by this Friday, 11th July 2008, so that we can get acceptances out by Monday 21st July 2008, in time for the early bird registration for HCI 2008. Note that registration for the full conference is *not* required for attending the workshop, but we thought that many people might want to do both.
