<MichaelC> scribe: Liddy
KHS presenting aging etc postponed to next week after edits suggested by Lisa
Jim: cognitive tags
people joining
Jim: Clayton can help - task to
look at exec function
... a construct for thinking about how brain works
... sometimes things very medical but not clear where
everything happens
...
cognitive abilities of cog function grouped .
<allanj> Loosely group into the following areas: goal formation, planning, goal-directed action, self-monitoring, attention, response inhibition, and coordination of complex cognition and motor control for effective performance.
Jim: this will go in wiki
... I have definitions...
<allanj> 1. Inhibition - The ability to stop one's own behavior at the appropriate time, including stopping actions and thoughts. The flip side of inhibition is impulsivity; if you have weak ability to stop yourself from acting on your impulses, then you are "impulsive."

<allanj> 8. Self-Monitoring - The ability to monitor one's own performance and to measure it against some standard of what is needed or expected.
Jim: many abilities in many
articles
... these lead to many functional problems
<allanj> all 8 of these exist on a continuum, if each is on a slider, depending where you put the sliders, you come up with various disabilities
Neil: there are many things that lead to problems with people not aware of them, how to we formulate solutions
Jim: many have to do with user
settings
... eg linearise the page, stop movement on page, ...
... but there will be server-based things - eg for Siri -
augmented page eg
Neil: we've seen govt with easy-read docs - maybe more poeple affected than we realise
Jim: I will finish now and put this in wiki
<janina> akim, next item
<janina> s/appl/apip/
ST: should this be review of something else? not able to do this now
NM: is anyone working on
this?
... is this Barry Johnson's work - he is not here?
NM: anyone have anything else?
ST: review ready but April 5
DR: prsonal problems so reporting next week ..
JF: to help DR this week
Joseph: my daughter needs help
getting ready for the day - done work on non-vocal section and
so maybe report ready next Monday
... exec function very helpful and excellent
KD: I just joined group so this
is first meeting - sectioning requirements have a lot to do
with exec functions - past experience supports this
... eg headings etc break up the page effectively
Neil: I agree
NM: whip is cracking on all task
group members!!
... anything else?
... what are timelines?
yes, I see, sorry - how can it be fixed?
MC: note that chair has been Neil not Michael - correct re whip especially!
NM: any more?
... autism is next on list - who is that?
<MichaelC> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Main_Page
MC: Lisa has assignees listed in wiki - they are not here
LN: talking about constrained languages
<Neil_Milliken> http://www.globish.com/
thank you!
<janina> Who would we ask about the prospect of an internationally agreed constrained vocabulary? Seems it would beyond scope for W3C to establish such a thing.
Liddy: www.globishfoundation.org
Janina: tricky to get this adopted - by whom?
Liddy: maybe we can do this in ISO with education tech group because it is a practice known in education
Janina: all for this - yes, let's
push for this
... seems like a worthy goal - association of ESL people could
help too
LN: many lists exist and there are something like 200 of the 1500 words that are contentious
NM: good idea - let's keep this going
LN: human translation etc very much more accurate
Janina: copyright can be a problem...
NM: yes
LN: copyright can be triacky
ST: with a constrained vocab, you could just translate sections so automated translation of bits could be done - eg if complicated section
Janina: need to get copyright owners on side but dictionaries from standard to constrained language would be helpful
ST; constrained vocab checker good
LN: this is available
already
... I will wrtie this up for wiki
Janina: I will follow it
NM: Lisa would like vendors
involved in this task force
... eg getting Dragon etc people involved
... impoartant to not set up standards that vendors might not
want - better for all to work together
... all done, thank you!
<MichaelC> ack ??P17
Janina: wonderful chairing - applause!!
<KateDeibel> zakim bye
