[NABS-L] Fwd: New Study Seeking Blind and Low Vision Participants - Improving Accessibility of Online Collaborative Whiteboards

[Blake, Lou Ann]

Hi All,

Just a reminder that researchers who want to recruit NFB members to participate in their research should be directed to me so the research can be reviewed by the NFB's research advisory council. This is to ensure that researchers have the appropriate safeguards in place. The below research has not been reviewed or approved by our research advisory council. Please forward to me all future requests to post announcements to solicit research participants. Thank you very much for your cooperation!

Lou Ann

> We are researchers who are interested in improving the accessibility of online collaborative whiteboards for people who are blind and visually impaired. We are looking for blind users to participate in an hour-long study exploring different audio and tactile ways of interacting with spatial graphics. Studies will be conducted either on Stanford campus or over Zoom between now and December 1st, and you will be compensated with a $35 Amazon gift card for your time. If you are interested in participating, please reach out to Danyang Fan (email: danfan17 at stanford.edu, cell: 314-495-0190) to find out more. Also, feel free to distribute this to anyone who might be interested. Thanks!
