We are recruiting participants to take part in a research study examining how behavior around interactive tabletop displays can be reflected in the tabletop interface itself, to better support work. We are looking for participants who are part of the wider Dalhousie University community, including students, staff/faculty, and friends. We are seeking groups of people (preferably four or larger) who are studying in the same major or working in the same department. Interested individuals and groups less than 4 are encouraged to contact us as well; we will work to pair you with suitable collaborators.

The study will be conducted in the GEM Lab, Mona Campbell Building, and will take about 1 hour 15 minutes minutes to complete. You will first meet with a researcher to go over the study details, and give consent to participate in the study. You will perform a number of tasks using the interactive tabletop display that involve coordinating with other participants, and your interactions will be video-taped. After this you will discuss and explore interface improvements and alternatives as a group. Compensation is a $20 Amazon gift card for each participant.

If you are interested in participating, please contact Mohammed Alnusayri (alnusayr@cs.dal.ca).
