Abstract(s)
With an increasing interest in the social inclusion of
children in schools, HCI researchers have proposed
technologies that support children at risk of social exclusion
in their interactions with peers. However, much of this
work has focused on the child at risk of social exclusion,
disregarding the fact that social exclusion is a group phenomenon that often originates in children’s negative
stereotyping. In this paper we argue for persuasive
sociometric technologies, ones that sense children’s social
interactions in real-time, and provide persuasive, just-in time recommendations to children with the goal of
challenging their perceptions of diversity and motivating
pro-social behaviors. We report on two studies that aimed at
inquiring into children’s practices of social exclusion in
school communities as well as whether and how persuasive
technologies can stimulate pro-social behaviors and a sense
of empathy among them.
