Jane,
Funny you should mention holidays. I'd be interested in that experiment
myself, but guess what? I'm off to Turkey for a fortnight. Cheers, and
enjoy yours.

Subject: [vicsireland] Volunteers sought for Braille reading experiment
Dear All,
Fluent Braille readers might be interested in the below notice.
Regards,
Stuart.
********************
Volunteers sought:
A group of researchers from the Department of Computer Science at NUI
Maynooth are looking for a number of subjects to take part in an
experimental study of Braille reading. The aim of the experiment is to
gather detailed data from visually impaired, fluent readers of Braille.
Subjects will be asked to read a series of short texts from a refreshable
Braille display and from Braille printed paper. The experiment will take
place during 11-14 May at NCBI head office on Whitworth Road, Dublin 9.
A session should take no more than one hour and subjects will be paid €10
per hour along with any reasonable travel expenses.
If you are a fluent Braille reader and would like to assist with this piece
of research in to the perceptions of how the Braille reader interprets
image
from finger to brain, please let Niamh Connolly know and she will pass on
your contact details to the research team. You can contact Niamh at
niamh.connolly@xxxxxxx
