Narrative-based elicitation: orchestrating contributions from experts and children

Integrating requirements from experts and children is a challenging task, especially when we design technology for children with special needs. This paper describes the use of the "narrative-based elicitation" as a method to facilitate the process of requirements' elicitation for the design of a Kinect game for children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder. The use of narrative resources to structure meetings with experts and participatory design with children allowed a smooth orchestration between different disciplines, generations and contributions.
