Subject: [Access Lunch] Reading for this Week

Hi everyone,

Please find the reading for this week attached, the paper is, "Invisibility in Disability and Assistive Technology."

The article discusses the roles of visibility and stigma and assistive technology.

A few motivating questions for the discussion are below.

Questions:

  *   How should designers design assistive technology to help users keep their disability invisible?
  *   Should designers create public awareness campaigns that address and attempt to combat stigma instead? Here, the idea is that addressing stigma could help alleviate challenges persons living with disabilities have when wearing or using assistive technology

Meeting date: Thursday, March 25
Meeting Time: 1:30 pm EST

Looking forward to our discussion on Thursday.

Sara
