Towards Accessible Remote Work
Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction · 2021 · 117 citations
Senior authorCorrespondingWorking from home has become a mainstream work practice in many organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic. While remote work has received much scholarly and public attention over the years, we still know little about how people with disabilities engage in remote work from their homes and what access means in this context. To understand and rethink accessibility in remote work, the present paper studies work-from-home practices of neurodivergent professionals who have Autism Spectrum Disorder, A…
The Future of Care Work: Towards a Radical Politics of Care in CSCW Research and Practice
2021 · 49 citations
Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Human- Computer Interaction (HCI) have long studied how technology can support material and relational aspects of care work, typically in clinical healthcare settings. More recently, we see increasing recognition of care work such as informal healthcare provision, child and elderly care, organizing and advocacy, domestic work, and service work. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has underscored long-present tensions between the deep necessity and simult…

articleOpen accessSenior authorDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, colleges and universities resorted to emergency online learning, which has significant implications for the future of online education. However, our knowledge of the factors influencing student engagement and learning is somewhat dispersed, partly due to a lack of a theoretical framework that guides research. This study draws on the Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework to examine the factors that predict student engagement and learning during emergency online learni…
Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction · 2022-11-07 · 35 citations
articleOpen accessPeople living with dementia as well as dementia caregivers are finding new ways to provide and receive support online. The emerging use of social media platforms-such as TikTok, Clubhouse, and Facebook-by people with dementia and dementia caregivers enables new forms of sharing about stigmatized, poorly understood, and often under-discussed experiences. Building on prior work focused on formal support groups, we report findings from an interview study of how people living with dementia and demen…
CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems · 2022 · 32 citations
Collaborative writing is an integral part of academic and professional work. Although some prior research has focused on accessibility in collaborative writing, we know little about how visually impaired writers work in real-time with sighted collaborators or how online editing tools could better support their work. Grounded in formative interviews and observations with eight screen reader users, we built Co11ab, a Google Docs extension that provides configurable audio cues to facilitate underst…
