| Abstract: | Disabled people are often not sufficiently involved in design even though they can be seen as lead users and partake in crip hacking. This project aimed to increase disabled people’s creative confidence in making and hacking so they can hack and/or create their own assistive technology. Disabled people were involved in two research activities: 1. An exploratory hacking activity to design for justice. 2. A creative learning activity using the Disabled Design Quest prototype and 3D printing, with a pre- and post-use interview and diary study. The results from Activity 1 were used to ideate, conceptualize and prototype a toolkit. Activity 2 showed a self-reported increase in the creative confidence of all participants. Building upon the results, indications for future research are formulated. |
