Lisa called for updates and actions - very quick round up

Mental health sub group - set two more meetings

<lisa> https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/coga/wiki/Subgroups scedule for subgroups

Lisa and Rashmi worked late for initial meeting so set new times - India friendly times and more that are US friendly. One after this call 7/19th Oct meeting in the mornings

Any problems due to timings?

No comments

<lisa> any objections:

Structure subgroup - Rain mentioned a concern

Rain had a solution to possible issues - qualitative research having done the quantative survey - Kiki, Shawn and Rain analysing quantative data and now want interview for sharing more data

Also share more to validate data

Need to record the interviews such as video recording or carefully documenting what comes out of the interviews... need ethics

W3C does not have approved tools or ethics approval for privacy and data etc

We as individuals are responsible for the ethics - means that coga individuals are put at risk. Possibly Google could be the organisation that has the research ethics

Findings would then be shared with coga and it is possible other organisations have ethics and could provide support

<Kiki> Present

Rain feels that coga task force should be comfortable with the chosen organisation that receives the data and has the insights.

Kiki confirmed that only the consent forms and data would be seen by the organisation and then shared outcomes - confirmed by Lisa

Lisa explained that invited experts may not have any infrastructure behind them so could be sued. Asked if Google could work with a hybrid system where the experts can do it as part of Google and the others have their own research infrastructure.

Rain replied that this would not be possible with Google as the latter is very careful about sharing data and keeping private data secure.

Rain said that it is possible to pull our anonymised data and share that with others.

Lisa asked how it affected viewing the survey

<Jennie> 1. Institutional Review Board (IRB) process/length of time for review before launch. 2. Assent process in addition to Consent or option to use this. 3. No pay wall for publication.

Rain replied that what people agreed to initially states clearly what is allowed - so that is easier but as Kiki confirmed the data collected from individuals the consent is different and belongs to Google.

data belongs to Google

Jennie commented on the length of time that needs to be considered - then you need to think about assent as well as consent as some groups may have difficulty with this aspect. Google may want no pay wall

<Rain> Yes

Lisa suggested that after Rain and Kiki do the research around the interviews it is then shared - not a formal partnership - need to avoid that.

Becca added that many universities allow people to be added as part of the research team - affiliated to allow for collaboration.

Universities can take time but it depends on the subject content and liabilities.

Rain followed up as confirming that she and Kiki are happy to work on the interviews but happy to support it going through another organisation.

Kiki +1 to Rain's comments and willing to help with research and scripts etc. as the initial stages do not involve the data

<Becca_Monteleone> +1 to Kiki - university standards, it is only the consent process, data collection, and de-identification that need to be done through the approved ethics process.

<kirkwood> no objection

Lisa asked Rain and Kiki to put together the actions to take to carrying out the research around the interviews at Google.

<Jennie> no objection

+1

<Kiki> no objections

<Rain> +1 to that path forward and gives people time to think of another organization if there is one

<kirkwood> +1

Updates with EO

<lisa> Draft survey https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1-VdpaYq0qLk0bZYryimWb-VL_tlklX-D1Uvtd2btzrw/edit Sending it out :https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xXjHPCfWm00iAJqmjdwFq_RQ80vKwwxFAoiEGI3NOlM/edit#gid=0

Research Plan and Strategy - send out the survey

Updates with EO - speedy update

<kirkwood> can we put google doc in irc?

Julie - Another script to review - explanation of cognitive and learning difficulties - feedback on text version - script now about video version. Please use the Google doc Next Weds aligning on feedback

Calendar invite sent out

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WIUsN_iZESQfwCqTUl6w_ukm7oNwTQTCfBZcBIQO7cE/edit#

<kirkwood> perfect

Meeting Wed Oct 19th to be completed by 21st Oct - possible 1hr - complexity of one of the user stories

Roxanne - scripts based on information already provided and reflected in the script.

Lisa said the Julie has pulled out 8 paragraphs and sentences for commenting

Roxanne confirmed that was all as revolves around coga scripts not the rest of the scripts for other disabilities

Julie thanked Lisa and confirmed that the survey covered many other abilities - scripts on tools and techniques, perception etc and coga may want to comment on but due to time restraints Julie feels we concentrate on the aspects that directly relate to cognitive impairment. EO will lose their funding for the videos if they do not get them finished by the end of the year

Lisa agreed that the timeline is tight and may need to consider a pre-consent system. So please put in comments from now on and try to attend and Julie will submit it as there is no time if you have an issue. Lisa asked if people were happy with the tight timeline

<Jennie> +1 to following Julie's lead on this

<Rain> +1 I am okay with it, Julie is really good about reaching out for clarity when needed

<kirkwood> +1

<lisa> are we ok with julie submitting the results of the google doc as an issue to eo after wensdays call

<Rashmi> +1

<Becca_Monteleone> +1

+1 to following Julie's lead

<lisa> any objections

Our review of Collaboration_Tool_Accessibility <https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/task-forces/research-questions/wiki/Collaboration_Tool_Accessibility> at coga review of accessible meetings <https://docs.google.com/document/d/14Ha6bbgDMMo_zLLWa3yz88mkwL2Dz7eczWXQTB6mcPc/edit?usp=sharing>

Review of collboration tool - need results

<Jennie> https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/task-forces/research-questions/wiki/Collaboration_Tool_Accessibility

Jennie asked people to look at the document and make decisions as she will not be around later

<Jennie> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1odt2eWGeJT06S2xdW2H3ymTHOTa0QWkscNSEphNI1og/edit#

Share feedback in the document and Jennie will share her screen. Added suggestions, tools and title and has shared this via email and clarification and going through data already collected

Jennie also added the prior comments so they are available.

<Rashmi> Recent update - We got Janina's response for Jennie's mail about asking the scope of collaboration tool

Jennie hopes that it will all be completed by the end of the following week as she is out of her office

Jennie read Janina's email response with more documents to look at and other note documents. Lots of acronyms mentioned

The acronyms relate to the groups working on other documents related to the collaboration document.

Lisa mentioned the issue with time that is now being considered for feedback - early January. Lisa mentioned that it was going to be end of October.

Lisa feels this is an important document and our feedback appears to be getting lost in the workflow

The document appears to be going to be published now and we have not had time to put together finalised feedback. We have to give quality feedback.

Rachel asked if we had agreed to end of Oct - Lisa mentioned it was in a coordination call and Rachel said she will check out what she can find.

Lisa asked what we should do now... suggested we carry on and Rachel will talk to Janina if possible to see what we can do.

Apologies Rachael - spelling of name.

<Rachael> Rachael has an action to circle back with Janina and find out why the date changed and what we can do to provide feedback (which wont' be available until Nov 1)

<kirkwood> can we propose a github issue? .. is there a github issue already to this point?

John asked if there is a specific Github issue that we are talking about?

Lisa saw on an APA list that the working draft was going to consensus.

Jennie reviewing what Rachael mentioned

Rachael gave a couple of options - APA members can put negative 1 to the group - concerns not got coga review. Or it could be a cross group review which is what we are trying to do to provide feedback. Rachael would prefer to contact Janina first and then consider what should be the next step.

<lisa> https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa-admin/2022Oct/0008.html

Rachael will email Janina and also have a private conversation as the next step.

Jennie will make sure she has reviewed what has taken place over the coming days and review comments added.

<lisa> jennies doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1odt2eWGeJT06S2xdW2H3ymTHOTa0QWkscNSEphNI1og/edit#

Lisa and Rachael please can you take care of other things whist Jennie is away.

Lisa is hoping there will be some conclusions to the review and Jennie is happy to complete the action.

<lisa> call for concensus from APA is at https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa-admin/2022Oct/0008.html

<Jennie> APA members only?

<lisa> if you do not agree and are in apa you can respond -1

<Rain> Lisa from LT: So we had one survey on making company usable, and this survey is about our research documents.

<Rain> Lisa from LT: You know the research module and the issue papers. And basically you want to see people using it.
