Parents must assume expert role in interactive technology development for children with special needs
نویسنده
چکیده
Parents are one of the most powerful people in the lives of children with special needs, because they – mostly – have lived closely together. Including parents into technology development provides invaluable information for researchers about children per se and working with them. In this paper, I first present benefits about working with parents. Second, I introduce three areas of primary challenges of parental participation: motivation, organization, and interaction. Finally, regardless whom to include into technology development – parents, teachers, or both of them – the goal must be searching for the best for the child.
