Many older people want to live in their homes for as long as possible. Much computer and sensor-based technology is being developed and deployed to support aging in place, ranging from fall sensors to complicated systems that monitor all of a user's activities and provide reminders, warnings, and alerts to family and caregivers. However, by and large such technology has been designed by engineers rather than the end users. As a result, adoption and acceptance of these systems by older adults is low. The project will begin with studies and focus groups of retired adults to determine the kinds of technological support elders actually want in their homes. Next, the project will create an easy to use "toolkit" that will enable an elder to create and customize a system to use in her own home. Finally, the project will create training materials to help ordinary people learn to design these technologies. As a result, this project will lead to the development aging in place systems that better meet the needs of elders and find more widespread acceptance. In addition, project will bring together people of all ages to engage in intergenerational design, including a workshop where Girl Scouts will collaborate with their grandparents to learn about each others technology needs and utilize the toolkit. The project, TAIPOR, builds on sociotechnical research in personal informatics that engages underserved populations in making their own customized technologies for tailored personal use and identifies perceptions related to adoption and abandonment of pervasive computing technologies by the people who live with them. TAIPOR research can be abstracted into three areas: (i) Identify Perceptions related to Adoption and Abandonment of IoT through contextual, qualitative studies where older retirees document their experiences with aging in place technologies. Investigators will develop a set of design guidelines and highlight exemplar IoT that meet older retiree needs. (ii) Design a Toolkit to Create and Customize IoT by novice, older retirees with minimal training. Based on the design guidelines, the investigators will develop a toolkit that abstracts the functionality of the exemplar IoT to enable older retirees to create their own aging in place technologies. (iii) Develop Scaffolded Training Materials so that older retirees can develop their own technologies with limited researcher intervention. Design workshops have arisen as a way to involve the end user in the design of technologies, but require significant resources on the part of researchers and are not scaleable. The investigators will disseminate a set of best practices for how to teach older retirees, an underserved population, about making at scale.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

许多老年人希望尽可能长时间地住在家里。 许多基于计算机和传感器的技术正在开发和部署，以支持就地老化，从跌倒传感器到复杂的系统，这些系统监视用户的所有活动，并向家人和护理人员提供提醒，警告和警报。 然而，总的来说，这种技术是由工程师而不是最终用户设计的。 因此，老年人对这些系统的采用和接受程度很低。 该项目将开始与研究和重点小组的退休成年人，以确定类型的技术支持老年人实际上希望在他们的家园。 接下来，该项目将创建一个易于使用的“工具包”，使老人能够创建和定制一个系统，在自己的家里使用。 最后，该项目将创建培训材料，帮助普通人学习设计这些技术。 因此，这一项目将导致发展更好地满足老年人需要并得到更广泛接受的就地老化系统。 此外，该项目将汇集所有年龄段的人参与代际设计，包括一个女童子军将与其祖父母合作的讲习班，以了解彼此的技术需求并利用工具包。TAIPOR项目以个人信息学的社会技术研究为基础，使服务不足的人口参与制作自己的定制技术，供个人使用，并确定与他们生活在一起的人对普及计算技术的采用和放弃的看法。TAIPOR的研究可以抽象为三个领域：（i）通过上下文，定性研究确定与物联网的采用和放弃相关的感知，其中老年退休人员记录了他们对老化技术的经验。调查人员将制定一套设计指南，并强调满足老年退休人员需求的示例物联网。(ii)设计一个工具包来创建和自定义物联网的新手，老年退休人员与最少的培训。根据设计指南，研究人员将开发一个工具包，该工具包抽象了示例物联网的功能，使老年退休人员能够创建自己的就地老化技术。(iii)开发脚手架培训材料，使老年退休人员可以在有限的研究人员干预下开发自己的技术。设计讲习班是作为让最终用户参与技术设计的一种方式而出现的，但需要研究人员投入大量资源，而且无法扩大规模。调查人员将传播一套最佳做法，如何教老年退休人员，一个服务不足的人口，关于规模。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得支持的，通过评估使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
