[NFBMDTLC-Chapter] Looking for virtual volunteers to assess apps/sites for Towson U students

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Mary Jo:

As a senior whose graduation is coming upon me much faster than I'm ready for it to arrive, I don't want to commit to something at this point that I could potentially have to drop out of later. However, please feel free to make me a backup in case you don't have enough testers or someone ends up dropping out.

I am in need of a few more volunteers to participate in an assessment/interview process for the students final project.  I am looking for volunteers who would be willing to work with a team during an upcoming class period to assess a few websites with a screen reader.   This would take place during our class on Wed. April 28 from 1:00-2:15 p.m.  (ET)

To visit each student’s chosen site or app.  During this time, you would walk through how you use a screen reader with that site and point out problems,  or places where you have to find a work-around to navigate the site, along with positive things that site has done to make it accessible.  The idea is to show the students how the site/app could be more user friendly for those with screen readers.  You do not have to be a tech expert for this.  Just comfortable using a screen reader to access sites like uber eats, etc.
