Focus On Users
The nine-session series will start in June of 2008 and last until October of 2009, and will feature workshops on:
- kids,
- adolescents,
- moms,
- older adults,
- physicians,
- public health professionals,
- international users,
- disabled users, and
- underserved populations.
In each session we will:
- review demographic data;
- identify trends in technology use, preferences, and user behavior;
- review audience-specific evidence about technology and positive health change; and
- establish strategies to use technology more effectively with target CDC audiences.
These sessions are open to both CDC staff and public health partners.
