Mobile Touch and Gesture Interaction for Children

(MTAGIC, just pronounced 'magic')

This study seeks to determine what differences lie in adults and children’s touch interactions with mobile devices. The overall goal is to provide research findings that will help application developers create better touch user interfaces for children.
