Abstract

As computers and internet access become more readily available at home, online testing and selfassessment are growing in popularity. In this article we briefly discuss the challenges and opportunities of online testing in general and then describe our experience with putting a standalone cognitive test battery online for users with special needs. Thereby the emphasis is on adopting the humancentered design process for the design of online tests and on the steps needed to be taken to arrive at a usable and validated online test battery. If the experience and process described in this paper turns out to be of value to researchers and/or practitioners in the field of using computers for human flourishing, this article will have achieved its purpose.
