Content:
"This book shows how to solve the challenges of designing systems for older adults. A series of case studies will demonstrate the principles of good design for older adults and provide methods to evaluate those designs, all using real-world examples. Tutorials allow readers to gain hands-on experience with principles and methods outlined within the book. Data for some of the tutorials will be hosted on our website. If systems are not designed with the needs and abilities of older adults in mind, older adults may not benefit from these systems, or take full advantage of what they have to offer. In some cases, designs without consideration for older users may put their safety at risk"--
Note:
Introduction -- Defining older adult user groups -- Assessing needs with older adults -- Implementing usability methods -- Simulation for design -- Modeling older adult performance -- Designing instructional support -- The personal reminder information and social management system (prism) -- Emerging challenges and approaches.
