Message-ID: Hi All, Welcome back! Accessibility Lunch will resume tomorrow, once again in NSH 4201, and we'll also be in zoom ( https://cmu.zoom.us/j/95635175391?pwd=ODhDOEZaUVM4cE5hYkFaRUs3T0tvZz09). In-person is very much preferred if you are able -- send me a quick note if you'll be there so I can better gauge how much pizza to buy :) Topic for tomorrow is kicking off the semester, starting to get speakers lined up, and general accessibility discussion. And, as an advanced advertisement, next Monday (1/29) we'll have a talk by UCSB PhD student Atieh Taheri. Thanks!

See you there! -Jeff Title: Beyond Function: Inclusive Design for Empowering Experiences Abstract: Imagine navigating daily experiences without full control of your movement or senses. Assistive technologies (AT) often focus narrowly on functional restoration, overlooking holistic human needs. My research introduces an inclusive design philosophy that moves beyond utilitarian assistance to transform interactions for people with disabilities. I leverage approaches like hands-free interfaces, immersive VR, haptics, and conversational AI to create technologies that cater not just to functional limitations, but to the psychological, emotional, and sensory aspects of experience. Through participatory design and mixed-methods evaluations, we have built systems enabling creative expression, seamless communication, virtual exploration, and enriched sensory engagement with computers. This human-centric methodology sets a new standard for assistive technology, augmenting functional capabilities while resonating emotionally. It pushes the boundaries of inclusive design to empower, include, and bring joy to those often excluded. We stand at the cusp of a new era where technology moves from isolation to connection, from limitation to liberation, from disability to possibility. The future is one where inclusive technology dissolves the line between ability and disability to promote universal empowerment and equity. Bio: Atieh Taheri is a PhD Candidate at UC Santa Barbara, working under the supervision of Professor Misha Sra at Human-AI Integration Lab. Her research, characterized by its interdisciplinary nature, aims to redefine the field of assistive technology (AT) by incorporating principles of generative AI. Taheri's scholarly pursuit is marked by a shift from conventional AT design, adopting a holistic and inclusive design philosophy that extends beyond just functional capabilities. Her notable achievements include developing an innovative hands-free video game input technique, honored with the Student Game Competition Award for Innovative Interfaces at CHI 2021, creating tools for artistic self-expression as well as enhancing interactions with conversational AI agents, receiving the People's Choice Best Poster Award at UIST 2023. Extending her expertise into virtual reality, Taheri is pushing the boundaries of AT, focusing on user experiences that provide assistance to individuals with motor impairments and bridging significant gaps in current AT solutions. Her methodology, combining quantitative and qualitative research, actively involves diverse user groups, ensuring her solutions meet real-world needs. Collaborations with industry leaders like Google and Apple further demonstrate her commitment to practical, inclusive technology. Taheri's technical expertise and her deep understanding of accessibility's transformative power reflect her dedication to creating technologies that are inclusive for all. Her contributions are shaping a more accessible, inclusive future in technology. -- == Associate Professor Human-Computer Interaction Institute Language Technologies Institute Carnegie Mellon University jeffreybigham.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Brianna Greetings, My name is Paul Ezeamii, and I am a PhD student at the Rochester Institute of Technology. I am conducting a research study to understand the experiences of PhD students with disabilities in computing and information science fields, or related domains. Specifically, we are interested in hearing from students with mobility impairments, motor impairments, or learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADD/ADHD, auditory processing disorder, autism spectrum disorder, or similar. This study is focused on students who have been enrolled in their doctoral program within the last 10 years, whether they are currently enrolled or not. We want to hear about successes and challenges with conducting research, using assistive technologies, interacting with faculty, attending conferences, and other aspects of the graduate school journey. We seek perspectives from disabled PhD students in computing because it can provide invaluable insights to help identify and address issues. Participants will be compensated at $30/hr. Interviews can be in person or via Zoom. If you or someone you know has a disability and fits our criteria and is interested in sharing with us their experience, please contact me at pe3814 at g.rit.edu. Please feel free to share this message widely. Thank you, Paul Ezeamii Brianna Blaser, Ph.D. (she/her) University of Washington, DO-IT washington.edu/doit 206-221-4163 | blaser at uw.edu ________________________________________ Computing Faculty, Administrator and Employer Community of Practice compcop at u.washington.edu review the discussion archives at https://mailman1.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/compcop -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Abstract: Empowering Diverse Learning through SEEDS This presentation explores SEEDS, a research project designed to enhance educational accessibility for children with vision impairments (CVIs) in India. SEEDS (Scalable Educational Experiences with Digital Scaffolding), created in collaboration with Vision Empower, is a voice-based educational platform for CVIs. It integrates an Android Teacher App, an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system, and a website for content management, facilitating interactive STEM education. A study with 29 visually impaired students demonstrated SEEDS' capacity to engage students and support collaboration, despite connectivity challenges. This talk will explore the journey of SEEDS from conception to field studies, highlighting the technological innovations, collaborative efforts, and the learning experiences they facilitate for the CVI community. Speakers: Roshni Poddar is a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research Lab India (MSRI). She received her undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Engineering from PES University, Bangalore, India.

To: GIS Services in University Libraries , Jessica Benner Hi All, Next week is Love Data Week! Check out our line up of workshops from CMU Libraries (some in person, some virtual) and consider attending some. We will be having one *in-person* on Friday February 16th 11:30 am-1:00 pm that is GIS oriented on enriching sidewalk data with accessibility information. Details below. Please share with anyone who you think may be interested. All are welcome :D Jessica Mapping Accessibility: Enriching sidewalk data using Project Sidewalk - Registration recommended Do you think sidewalk data or sidewalk accessibility are important? Join us for a workshop on the importance of sidewalk data and a tutorial on Project Sidewalk , a tool that allows you to enrich sidewalk data with accessibility information. Project sidewalk is a project of the Make Ability Lab at the University of Washington and currently has data for 11 cities, including Pittsburgh PA . The labels you add during the workshop or later impact city planning in the city you enrich, and help build mapping tools and algorithms that are accessibility-aware. We hope you will continue to add data throughout the semester and beyond. No previous experience is required. This will be a hands-on workshop--please bring a laptop. *Presenters:* *Eric Sinagra* - Co-Founder and CEO of PathVu - a company focused on sidewalk accessibility. Eric graduated in 2014 with an M.S. in Rehabilitation Science and Technology at the University of Pittsburgh?s School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences after completing his undergraduate degrees in Physics and mathematics from Duquesne University. *Jessica Benner* - Librarian and GIS Specialist at Carnegie Mellon University Libraries. Jessica is a liaison to several departments at CMU and has studied motivations for collaborative mapping projects like OpenStreetMap and how these tools are used to map the physical accessibility of urban spaces.

(https://zainabiftikhar.com) Abstract: The talk will be about the speaker's work on mental health accessibility and the need to recognize the absence of mental health services as a disability. In contrast to psychosocial disability, they will discuss the concept of "access to care" disability that pertains more to institutional or systemic barriers rather than an individual's psychological impairment. It signifies the challenges individuals face in obtaining necessary mental health support due to structural limitations within healthcare systems. The talk will explore research on alternate ways to make mental health support accessible by design, content, and agent.

Please find the talk abstract below: From Immersion to Inclusion: The New Frontier of Accessible Human-VR Interaction In the rapidly evolving realm of Virtual Reality (VR), immersion stands as a hallmark, offering users unparalleled experiences that blur the lines between physical reality and virtual reality. Yet, for a significant portion of our population, namely individuals with physical disabilities, full immersion remains an elusive dream. In this talk, I will delve into this pressing challenge, spotlighting the pivotal role HCI plays in bridging this divide. As immersive technologies become more and more pervasive, it is imperative that HCI researchers and professionals pioneer solutions that are not just innovative but also inclusive. This presentation will explore the current landscape of VR accessibility, highlight the barriers faced by individuals with physical disabilities, and underscore the transformative potential of HCI-driven solutions. By championing inclusivity in VR design and interaction paradigms, we can usher in a new era where VR truly belongs to everyone, irrespective of their physical abilities.

Please find the talk abstract below: Abstract: Spinal Cord Injury is one of the leading causes of severe motor disability, resulting in abrupt and dramatic changes in an individual's life and mobility, requiring the use of a power wheelchair, and adopting new health activities. With their reduced functional ability, these health activities are complex, and difficult to track; however, well-informed and tailored technological solutions can support them. Although personal informatics or self-tracking technologies, such as activity trackers and food trackers, enable individuals to monitor and track multiple aspects of their lives, little is known about the needs and potential of these tools for this particular population. Unfortunately, contemporary PI research focuses on people with motor disabilities as a monolithic group, failing to distinguish the needs of people with severe impairments. My research aims to bridge this gap by employing a user-centric lens to expand PI research by answering the question: How can personal informatics research address the needs, challenges, and expectations of people with a severe motor disability? My work provides an understanding of the current state of PI research for people with motor disabilities, and details the factors to consider when designing a PI system that addresses the needs of this highly underrepresented group.

However, the unfortunate reality is that many of these digital services are not accessible to disabled people. Understanding the different factors causing inaccessible design will allow us to develop more effective solutions to support accessible design processes. Dr. Tigwell will share current research his group has been working on that involves investigating the various challenges designers and developers face. He will also share ideas on how we can solve these challenges to help designers improve the accessibility of their work. Increasing the accessibility of digital spaces not only benefits disabled people, but also people experiencing situational or temporary impairments.

Please find the talk details below: Talk title: Can Accessibility Research Impact Real-World Software Accessibility? Design, Education, and Governance Talk info: Academics have devoted significant efforts to researching software accessibility and assistive technologies. However, myriad accessibility pitfalls are still present in software in the wild. What should we do? Kyrie Zhou argues that accessibility research and industrial practices are often siloed, leading to suboptimal outcomes. Drawing on his published and ongoing accessibility research, he will present how researchers may impact real-world design, education, and governance of software accessibility. Research can be translated into practical design guidelines for designers. Research can be translated into educational materials to teach next-generation designers about accessibility. Research can be translated into policy recommendations to inform legislation and regulation. This pragmatic approach has the potential to reduce the gap between numerous accessibility research and persisting accessibility issues in software, but challenges remain. Speaker bio: Kyrie Zhixuan Zhou is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Information Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research interests are broadly in tech accessibility, tech ethics, and tech education. He aspires to design, govern, and teach about ICT/AI experience for vulnerable populations. Looking forward to this interesting talk! Join us at NSH 4201 at noon on Monday, 25th March.
