<h2><b>Research Title: Exploring Creativity Support Tools for Blind and
Low Vision People</b></h2> <br><br>
Being conducted by: Northeastern University<br><br>
<h2><b> <br><br>
<br>
Purpose of the Study</b></h2>The purpose of this research is to
understand how blind and low vision people engage in creative thinking
process, including adding, recording, organizing, and evaluating their
ideas to build creative artifacts.<br><br>
<h2><b> <br><br>
<br>
Role of the Participants and Anticipated Length of the Study
</b></h2>Participants will be asked to share their creative thinking
processes in daily life. Specifically, we will ask questions in various
phases of creative thinking, including adding, recording, organizing,
evaluating, and sharing ideas. <br><br>
Participants will also be asked to demonstrate their work process using a
creative artifact (e.g., artwork, design) that they have done before,
either individually or with collaborators. <br><br>
<b>By creative artifacts</b>, we refer to design prototypes, tactile arts
and crafts, images, photographs, drawings, creative writing samples
(e.g., fiction, but not academic papers at this time), and musical
compositions. These artifacts can be in any medium, as long as they were
created by the participant as part of their creative practice.<br><br>
The session will last for approximately 90 minutes, and participants will
receive $45.<br><br>
<h2><b>Proposed Participant Compensation</b></h2> $45 via Amazon
