一句话：通过年轻人与老年人共同参与的黑客马拉松案例，总结促进老年人参与软件开发的良好实践。
随着全球老龄化，老年人在现代技术市场中的比例不断上升，因此让老年人参与开发适合其群体的软件变得重要。本文围绕这一议题，组织了一场由年轻程序员团队与老年参与者共同参加的黑客马拉松，并对其进行案例研究。研究目标在于激励老年人参与软件工程过程，而不是仅将他们视为被动的技术使用者。作者采用多种定性方法收集和分析数据，考察老年人在此类活动中的参与方式、障碍与互动效果。基于结果，论文提出一组良好实践，旨在改善老年人在类似黑客马拉松活动中的参与体验，并优化面向老年人的应用开发流程。
Globally observed trends in aging indicate that older adults constitute a growing share of the population and an increasing demographic in the modern technologies marketplace. Therefore, it has become important to address the issue of participation of older adults in the process of developing solutions suitable for their group. In this study, we approached this topic by organizing a hackathon involving teams of young programmers and older adult participants. In our paper we describe a case study of that hackathon, in which our objective was to motivate older adults to participate in software engineering processes. Based on our results from an array of qualitative methods, we propose a set of good practices that may lead to improved older adult participation in similar events and an improved process of developing apps that target older adults.
