Tyson McMillan | yes | Assessing the Accessibility of Web 2.0 Authors: Tyson McMillan, Ph.D., Lin Lin The American Society for Information Science & Technology November 2009 This study examines the accessibility of Web 2.0 websites to the visually impaired. Web accessibility standards are established to maximize the ability of those with impairments to navigate the web. Various computer tools exist to evaluate web HTML content against existing accessibility standards. Using a weighted metric-based formula called the Web Accessibility Barrier (WAB) score, this study adopted an experimental design and compared 88 randomly selected Web 2.0 websites against 88 randomly selected Web 1.0 websites. The study found that Web 2.0 websites are significantly less accessible than Web 1.0 websites. Details of the analysis, evaluation, discussion, and recommendations are included in the paper. |

Andi Saptono | no | |
Takayuki Watanabe | yes | I have submitted an communication paper on W4A 2017, which title is "Communication Model of Web Accessibility." (At the moment, I don't know if this article is accepted) Abstract: WCAG 2.0 plays an important role on Web accessibility. Evaluation of Web accessibility is carried out to conform to WCAG 2.0 and authors and evaluators consult specific techniques to achieve Web accessibility. Web accessibility, however, is a communication problem. The current paper tries to draw holistic view of Web accessibility in terms of communication model, which is derived from semiotics. Based on this model, gap between authors and users, importance of users’ goal, importance of context, evaluation of the right part of the model (user side), and intelligent Web content are discussed. I'm happy if this paper is useful for Silver's research activity and gets feedback from your activity. |

David Swallow | yes | I have potentially useful stakeholder interview data on web developers and their working practices, including their use of WCAG and other resources.

Michael Heron | yes | |
Bob Dodd | no | |
Eleanor Loiacono | yes | WPI has a project based curriculum and so there are two types of projects: Interactive Qualifying Projects (IQPs) and Major Qualifying Projects (MQPs). The Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) is one of the most distinctive elements of the WPI Plan and WPI’s signature project-based curriculum, giving every WPI student the experience of working in interdisciplinary teams to solve a problem or need that lies at the intersection of science and society. The MQP is a capstone experience. The MQP helps students put the theory of what they've learned into practice to tackle real-life scenarios and issues, often sponsored by corporations or other external organizations. I have advised many of these over the years. I have published research conducted via these groups at high level IS journals. Students and I have presented this work at various conferences. |
Tristen Breitenfeldt | no | I am not a student nor an educator. |

Reade Lowell | yes | I work in industry, so I'm not sure if this is particularly relevant to me, but depending on the timing and scope of the project, I would be willing to support/mentor/advise students who are using Silver research questions as a basis for projects. |
Klaus Miesenberge | yes | |
Andi Saptono | yes | |
Takayuki Watanabe | yes | I'm concerned about schedule. Japanese 1st term term begins in April and ends in July. February and March is vacation. This timeline doesn't much your schedule. In addition to that, students are not familiar with Web accessibility (because I teach Information design and HCI), it takes some time to start a research. |
Nancy Alajarmeh | yes | If asked to do so |
Gregg Vanderheiden | no | over committed now |
Stephanie Wilson | yes | I regularly supervise projects undertaken by students on BSc Computer Science and MSc Human-Computer Interaction Design (HCID) at City. Students on the MSc HCID take a module on "Inclusive Design" - projects based on Silver research activities might be particularly suitable for this group and I would be keen to pursue this. I also have one or two PhD students who might be interested in a short-term project. |

As mentioned above, WPI is a project-based curriculum and has two distinct projects: the IQP, MQP, and data science projects. The Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) is one of the most distinctive elements of the WPI Plan and WPI’s signature project-based curriculum, giving every WPI student the experience of working in interdisciplinary teams to solve a problem or need that lies at the intersection of science and society. The MQP is a capstone experience. The MQP helps students put the theory of what they've learned into practice to tackle real-life scenarios and issues, often sponsored by corporations or other external organizations. WPI has a data science program of which I am on the faculty steering committee. So, I would be able to engage a data science student or team to help analyze large datasets. I have advised many of IQPs and MQPs over the years (see http://eleanorloiacono.weebly.com/projects.html). I have published research conducted via these groups at high level IS journals.

I am intersted in looking at theory building within this field (adding to the literature in IS that has focused on "typical user" for so long and analysis of "big" datasets that may help our understanding of accessibility and the needs of users. |

Of the options listed, I am most interested in helping to analyze received reports, or perhaps even helping compile a "meta-study" of all participant studies. |

There is still very little known about information representations that are accessible to the broad range of people with cognitive disabilities - particularly people with little to no literacy skills. Also comparing accessibility needs of those with cognitive disabilities to those with sensory disabilities is greatly needed as some of the sensory accessibility standards create barriers for those with cognitive disabilities. |

Experiments. I, however, want to start my research with user interviews as an "Understand and specify the context of use" of ISO 9241-210 to identify "Specify the user and organizational requirements". |

I am also interested in projects that involve conducting observational studies of how people use technology in practice. Clearly, this is particularly relevant for the stakeholder group that we have been focusing on recently - people with aphasia - who can find it challenging to participate in surveys and interviews. |

Gregg Vanderheiden | I am completely over committed for the next 4 years. My contributions will therefore be limited to occasional review and to providing think pieces. I don't think we can get to creating guidelines for what we will have in 10 years by conducting experiments. We are going to need to look at where things are going and work off of principles of accessibility -- and include the potential new approaches to it that will be emerging. This will be a big challenge. | |

Silver currently has a statement of Expectations, including copyright and intellectual property conditions under which participation and contribution of new data will be covered.
Do you anticipate any difficulties contributing work under these conditions as currently defined by Silver?
If yes, please give details of your difficulties, including alternative conditions under which you’d be prepared to contribute work not already in the public domain.

Abi Roper | no | I am an early career researcher so don't know the ins and outs of IP very well. I'm not aware of any issues with this but would need to research further to guarantee there would be no difficulties. |

Bob Dodd | no | |
Eleanor Loiacono | no | Though I don't foresee any difficulties with meeting deadlines, the ability to find students for projects requires lead time and a solid description of the specific project. |
Tristen Breitenfeldt | no | N/A |
Stanley Lam | no | |
Shea Tanis | yes | Consultation with our University regarding the outlined expectations would need to be performed in light of the particular research to be executed. We work with vulnerable populations and thus have a rigorous IRB process that would need to be followed and researchers are subject to the IRB timeline. Thus, this would need to be kept in mind when agreeing to deliverables. |
