7th Conference on Interaction Design for ChildrenEach day, we interact with hundreds of technological devices that help us organize our lives, achieve our goals, and indulge in our passions.
For children today, technology is especially pervasive in all aspects of life.
They learn and play using computers and other technological devices; as they grow, they build and maintain friendships using computers and mobile phones; they interact with one another virtually; and even find critical interpersonal support and therapy using computers, the internet and other technology-enhanced products.
Given the ubiquity of technology in children's lives, it is surprising that so few venues bring together those who are concerned with designing the technologies and the interactions with technology that are so important to children's lives.
For this reason, IDC 2008 will bring together, in the diverse city of Chicago, an international community of researchers, educators, and industry professionals concerned with interaction design for children, in order to think outside the toybox.
