This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Fourth
International Symposium on End-User Development, IS-EUD 2013, held
in Copenhagen, Denmark, in June 2013. The 13 full papers (45%
acceptance rate) and 11 short papers (50% acceptance rate) have
been presented at the event. In addition the volume contains two
keynote speeches, three doctoral consortia papers, and information
on 2 workshops. The papers provide a broad overview of the current
state of End-User Development research.
Recent years have seen a growing number of calls for considering
gender in the design or evaluation of software, websites, or other
digital technology. Calls like these have arisen from an emerging
awareness in HCI of findings from the social sciences that are
relevant to the way people use and design technology. However,
emerging work on bringing together gender research with software
design choices is fragmented across multiple disciplines. This
monograph aims to help bring such works together, by synthesizing
the current state of affairs and future possibilities on how gender
comes together with HCI design. The authors of this monograph
consider inclusive design of technology whatever the gender of its
users of particular importance. This conceptual review provides an
overview of the motivations that have driven research in gender and
inclusive HCI design. The authors review the empirical evidence for
the impact of gender in thinking and behavior which underlies HCI
research and design. They present how HCI design might
inadvertently embed and perpetuate gender stereotypes. They also
present current HCI design approaches to tackle gender stereotypes
and produce gender-inclusive designs. The monograph concludes by
discussing possible future directions in this area.
