Subject: Undergraduate student recruitment for HCI study
__________
Call for Participation: Investigating Searching tasks across devices–desktop, iPad and iPod
My name is Laura Marcial. I am a Doctoral Candidate at UNC Chapel Hill working locally at UW. My dissertation research is focused on studying searching task efficiency across the current suite of devices: desktop, tablet (iPad) and mobile (iPod). We are looking for participants to help by performing searching tasks on these devices in a lab setting.
You will be asked to perform some searching tasks on a desktop computer, an iPad and an iPod. The study will take place in Room 418 of Sieg Hall on the University of Washington campus. It will consist of a single 3-4 hour session with breaks.
We are looking for undergraduate students over the age of 18 who are current iPod, iPhone or iPad users. If you are interested in participating, please contact me at marcial@unc.edu.*
Beyond the basic requirements for device experience and age, participants of all genders, ethnicities, abilities, and familiarity levels with computers are encouraged to participate!
WE WILL REIMBURSE YOU $60 FOR PARTICIPATING IN THIS STUDY.
Sincerely,
Laura Haak Marcial
Doctoral Candidate
School of Information and Library Science, UNC Chapel Hill
