Paid Testing Opportunity: Google Docs, screen readers, Collaboration

 Hello,


On behalf of my colleague, I am sharing a study on Google Docs accessibility that might be of interest to some of us. The following includes detailed information.

=========

We are a team of researchers at the University of Michigan. We are conducting a remote research study that we would like you to participate in.


The purpose of this study is to test a prototype Chrome browser extension to improve access to the collaborative editing features in Google Docs for blind and visually impaired people.


Our study will require you to complete a series of document editing tasks using Google Docs in the Chrome desktop web browser. We want to test our prototype with you and ask you about your opinion. The study will take approximately 2 hours to complete, and you will be compensated $25 per hour. The study will be conducted remotely over zoom, and we hope to schedule it in the next several weeks. We will give you more instructions before and during the study.


Your participation is completely voluntary, and you can quit the study at any time. You need to be a frequent user of Google Docs on Chrome, be 18 years old or older, have some level of visual impairment, and regularly use a screen reader to access your devices.


If you qualify and are interested in participating, please send an email to anhong@umich.edu and let us know what times you are available over the next few weeks. I’ll then send you more information about the study to get your consent and schedule the time.

=========


All the best,


JooYoung
