Biography

Dr Grant Meredith’s passion for helping people in need led him to launch and establish the Technologies for Empowering People for Participation in Society (TEPPS) research program.

TEPPS is a highly applied and socially engaged research team that envisages, creates, trials and implements assertive technologies designed to encourage self-directed and proactive positive life changes. Through TEPPS, Dr Meredith has developed a number of free software systems for people with special needs, including the online social simulator Scenari-Aid, which enables people to desensitise themselves to commonly feared social settings and practise different forms of speech therapy.

Grant’s research interests in information technology encompass assertive technologies, technology accessibility, disability, emerging technologies and educational inclusion. He holds a PhD from Federation University Australia, where he has been Lecturer of Multimedia & Computer Games since 2008.
