<\/p>*** Update ***
\nFraser and I have recruited all the participants for our studies. We will be running another set of studies in 3 to 4 months, so please check back a little bit later for the more information!
\n*******\n

Once again,\u00a0Fraser Anderson<\/a>, and I are looking for participants for our research studies. We are currently running two user studies. Fraser\u2019s experiment is concerned with how people learn pen-based gestures and mine is concerned with how people learn gestures on a large touchscreen. We hope that the\u00a0results will help us understand how generalizable gestures are, how people perform gestures in different contexts, and will help guide the design of gesture-based interfaces in the future.<\/p>\n

Fraser and I are currently seeking\u00a0right handed\u00a0University of Alberta students who are\u00a018+\u00a0to participate. My study has the added caveat that potential participants must *not* be color blind.\u00a0You can volunteer for one or both of our studies.<\/p>\n

The studies take place in the\u00a0Advanced Man-Machine Interface Lab<\/a>\u00a0in the\u00a0Computing Science Center<\/a>\u00a0on the University of Alberta Campus. Your participation will be split over two days. On day 1, you will spend 1 hour learning a number of gestures. On day 2 (approximately 24 hours later), you will return for some follow-up tasks. Participation on day 2 takes less than 30 minutes. At the completion of the experiment, you will receive $15 cash. To\u00a0be eligible to participate, you must be available for\u00a01 full hour\u00a0on day one and\u00a030 minutes\u00a0on day two.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in participating, please email\u00a0hci@ualberta.ca<\/a>\u00a0to set up an appointment. Unfortunately,\u00a0everyone needs to have any appointment set up to participate \u2013 we cannot\u00a0accommodate\u00a0people who just show up at our lab.\u00a0Thanks!
\n** These studies are being conducted by\u00a0Michelle Annett\u00a0and\u00a0Fraser Anderson\u00a0under the guidance of\u00a0Dr. Walter Bischof\u00a0and have been approved by the Research Ethics Board at the University of Alberta. **<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
