*Overview*
-----------------------------------------------------------
In this special issue, we are calling for contributions dealing with
distributed online co-design with children and its wider field of
design-based learning. We are looking for both theoretical and
methodological reflections on the position of participatory design and
co-design and empirical cases that advance design practices with
children in online environments. A significant contribution of the
volume will focus on facilitation tools and techniques connected to
the contemporary challenges of distributed online design in formal
settings (i.e. K-12) or informal settings with children.
Effective techniques and tools for co-located environments (Antle et
al., 2020, Zaman et al.,2022), which foster the genuine participation of
children (Kinnula & Iivari, 2021), have been established over the years
within the child-computer interaction community. However, technologies,
tools, and techniques for distributed online co-design with children are
only beginning to emerge, with much room for new developments and the
need for adaptations. Co-design with children in online and hybrid
environments, encountered constraints in the utilization of existing
technologies and tools, and challenges when applying longstanding design
facilitation techniques (Itenge et al., 2021; Rötkönen et al., 2021;
Rötkönen et al., 2022, Winschiers-Theophilus et al., 2022,). Within
online environments, new technological affordances and methods need to
be explored, and established facilitation strategies and co-design
methods need to be amended (Bertran et al., 2022; McVeigh-Schultz &
Isbister, 2021; Walsh et al., 2015; Warren et al., 2022). The move to
online environments offers a variety of challenges but also new
opportunities (Fails et al. 2022), including the collaborative
participation of children that are geographically distributed
(Winschiers-Theophilus et al., 2022). Given the challenges, yet also the
novel opportunities, a larger collection of theoretical and empirical
work about online co-design with children and design-based learning is
required.

*Topics of Interest*
-----------------------------------------------------------
We invite researchers drawing upon design-based research approaches to
share their theoretical, methodological, or practical perspectives. We
welcome submissions that report on qualitative or quantitative studies,
systematic reviews or scoping reviews, as well as theoretical and
reflective pieces.
The indicative list of topics of interest for this special issue
includes, but is not limited to:
● Geographically distributed participants
● Ethical considerations and implications
● Special educational needs
● Inclusion, diversity, and heterogeneity
● Social-emotional learning
● Intergenerational engagement and communication
● Facilitation tools and techniques
● Supportive technologies and platforms
● Formal and informal educational contexts
● Design-based learning in K-12
