David: For mental health, reviewing literature and rachael came up with a good google form to help with the literature review

Update from Rachael on Mental Health, including the form to submit reviews

David: Rachael created a process with instructions for tracking the articles

<Rain> Link to the process: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XWmikm5Ein5CQ02knEJ5iGzO1YJMilTMBJ_aLVCTzs0/edit#heading=h.bc4vqyklmnk0

<Rain> Link to the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1HixNzZUXWiMBfyPjlZj0COtBkI3h1uvlxTFGIzAVngk/viewform?edit_requested=true

Rain: This is for anyone really. There is a sub-group working on it but you don't have to be in the group to work on this. Please feel free to help in.

David: If you have questions about the google form, please let us know.
... please check it out and if you have any comments, let us know

Rain: Rachael joined in at the perfect time. Anything to add?

Rachael: Essentially, we built the form with instructions because anyone who's not in the group to be able to help in
... Feel free to walk through the form
... 15-20 mins Grab an article and follow the form to fill in
... It'd be very helpful for the mental health literature review
... We did around 10-12 papers but no where closer to what we wanted

John: anyone can review the article. do we want to invite any person potentially to do so?

David: we've been working to invite but not very successful

Rachael: Probably we want someone in the COGA group to do it

Rain: how would you feel sharing this form with the community group?

Rachael: Fine with it

Rachael will send email with the form and Rain can forward to the community group

APA checkin (David)

Rain: Moving onto APA
... Need to check on this and make it a regular process
... Checking in with you David on where we are in terms of our interaction with the APA

David: Been away due to trip so i need to review the latest to see what's going on
... Lisa requested something from the APA. Need to review..skips my mind. will try to find it and update
... give a minute

Rain: I think also APA group would love to have more interaction from the COGA group as well
... so if anyone wants to participate, feel free to. Not a liaison but help. I think APA will appreciate more.

David: Wednesday 12 pm EST APA meeting

John: might try to jump in sometime

Rain: still working on setting up joint meeting for TPAC. we are making progress there so that will increase the interaction

Jennie: Actually, that leads into my next question. When is the TPAC meeting time going to get finalized?

Rain: That's a good question. We were starting to set up meeting times. Couple days ago, we were asked to revise the time so we don't know yet about the actual schedule
... So the joint meetings & Breakout sessions (panel, Jennie's planning)

Jennie: I understand the difficulty of the working time together but want to know early so that i can respect the time.

Rain: Will take TPAC agenda item now

TPAC planning updates - https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/coga/wiki/TPAC_2021_initial_planning

<Rain> Schedule overview: https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/coga/wiki/TPAC_2021_initial_planning#Schedule_overview

Rain: schedule overview i created for TPAC
... for meetings that we planned.
... 2 days ago, all meetings week of 18th should be moved
... 18th needs to be open for potential breakout sessions
... best i can give you right now is the link to where we submit sessions while tpac is planning

<Rain> TPAC submissions for breakouts: https://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC/2021/SessionIdeas#COGA_Content_Usable:_user_needs_to_specifications

Jennie: when i look at the how to work with the coga group for example, it says 2 slots preferred. does 2 slot mean 2 hours?

Rain: YES

Jennie: consecutive?

Rain: i believe consecutive
... at this moment, we are only doing: giving preferences
... at best
... everything except for tuesday will be moved
... Tuesday the 26th

Jennie: is there expectation that we must attend?

Rain: yes there will be

Jennie: will they schedule accessibility guideline call? and coga meeting will not be happening due to overlap?

Rain: TPAC update: all sessions in 18th week have to be rescheduled. we just found out on tuesday. will update when we know
... we are also trying to meet with the mobile accessiblity team
... Planning a panel discussion as well
... look at the user stories
... from coga members
... once lisa returns, we will pick 3
... when Lisa returns, then we will follow those stories. David, John, and Lisa are the panels

<Jennie> https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1UIQu4RqklIlFjEuDPh3bZgMaeqexsRW32ite37AOhoA/edit#slide=id.gf082ec77ba_0_26

Jennie: will share screen right now
... in tpac folder, i put slides on how to work with coga
... not many know the benefit of knowing how to work with coga

Disucssing about the slides accessibility for people with dyslexia

Rain explained how to format the line spacing

Jennie: after a brief overview of different cognitive disabilities, i wanna focus the time on each best practice. This is a list of best practice that would benefit for people with certain cognitive disabilities. meeting etiquettes. Open to feedback on it.

John: fully agree with it. articulate as much as possible on what the functional needs are especially the members of w3c and other teams. functional needs related to processing speed, memory, etc

David: John has a good point. Functional needs work pretty well

Jennie: will draft out and when ready for initial review, will share to the list

<Jennie> Albert: Is there any need or an area where I can share for members with mental health disorders like OCD?

<Jennie> ...For the user personas.

<Jennie> Rain: That is a good question.

<Jennie> ...When Lisa returns from holiday I will talk with her about this.

<Jennie> ...We don't have a lot of time in the panel and it will be the panelists sharing their stories.

<Jennie> ...We will look and see if we have time for an additional panelist.

<Jennie> ...If we do, we will invite you as well.

<Jennie> David F: We were also tying it into the Content Usable document.

<Jennie> ...At this time there were no user stories added yet around mental health disabilities

<Jennie> Albert: As I am understanding there are 2 types of TPAC sessions

<Jennie> ...One is around Content Usable; the other is on how to work with the COGA team

<Jennie> ...Is that right?

<Jennie> Rain: That is correct - these are both breakout sessions.

<Jennie> ...The Content Usable one is about how it can help translate information into other documents created by the W3C

<Jennie> Albert: For working with the COGA group, I don't have to participate as a persona, but can I participate with the functional needs

<Jennie> ...I would like mental health included

<Jennie> ...I want to be sure that COGA talks about mental health

<Rain> Outline for TPAC breakout session on working with COGA: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Sg9Q0QbQHmRhoqA5UfNq908ffSpeV7vEaRUqiw9cTQI/edit#

<Rain> Everyone is invited to contribute

<Rain> Doc to capture notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m8nWqlFdrJWsV-tf_h7Y2MZEwiL-VFb4Y-aunh4_RW0/edit#

Rain: UN is working on the draft of the convention of the rights of persons with disabilities. they are open for comments until September. I created a new doc to capture our notes because lisa's doc doesn't allow edit.
... if you have time, please take a look at the document
... notes can come from anywhere but if we come together as a community then, it will carry more weight
... there is a big concern on the way things are defined
... a lot of cognitive disabilites are categorized under the label of mental health
... we wanna look at how mental health is defined
... plz take a look
... we will bring this up next week as well

<Rain> Community Group: https://www.w3.org/community/coga-community/

Rain: community group has started. exactly 2 meetings (which is just one because we split into 2 groups)
... very exciting for this interesting involvement

<Rain> RRSAgent: make minutes
