<b>Purpose</b><br></br>This paper aims to report the findings of a systematized literature
review focusing on participatory research and accessibly in the context of assistive
technologies, developed for use within museums by people with sensory impairments
or a learning disability. The extent and nature of participatory research that occurs
within the creation of technologies to facilitate accessible museum experiences is
uncertain, and this is therefore a focus of this paper.<br></br><br></br><b>Design/methodology/approach</b><br></br>This
paper is a systematized literature review and subsequent thematic analysis.<br></br><br></br><b>Findings</b><br></br>A
screening of 294 research papers produced 8 papers for analysis in detail. A thematic
analysis identified that the concept of accessibly has nuanced meanings, underpinned
by social values; the attractiveness of a technology is important in supporting real-life
usability; and that the conceptualization of participation should extend beyond the
end users.<br></br><br></br><b>Social implications</b><br></br>The argument is made
that increasing the participation of people with sensory impairments and learning
disabilities in the research process will benefit the design of technologies that
facilitate accessibility for these groups.<br></br><br></br><b>Originality/value</b><br></br>An
original notion of participation has emerged from this review. It includes the participation
and goals of disabled people but has expanded the concept to encompass museum personnel
and indeed the physical and social spaces of the museums and heritage sites themselves.
This constructs a broad of participation, with different aspects being reflected across
the review’s research papers. |
