Findings of Expert Validation and Review of the Technology Enhanced Interaction Framework

A Technology Enhanced Interaction Framework has been developed to support designers and developers designing and developing technology enhanced interactions for complex scenarios involving disabled people. Issues of motivation, time, and understanding when validating and evaluating the Technology Enhanced Interaction Framework were identified through a literature review and questionnaires and interviews with experts. Changes to content, system, and approach were made in order to address issues identified. A detailed analysis of the expert review and validation findings supported the view that the TEIF could help designers/developers design technology solutions in complex situations when disabled people are involved. The next step will be to run a motivating experiment to evaluate how and in what ways the framework helps designers/developers.
