Experience Reports


The value of accessible technology is measured ultimately by the experience of people who use it. ASSETS 2015 invites papers that reflect these experiences first-hand. An experience report is authored or co-authored by one or more persons who are in the intended audience for the technology discussed in the report. It describes these authors’ experience with the technology, positive or negative (and may describe the experience of other users, as well).
