Subject: [NFBAffiliatePresidents] Reminder: BANA Seeks Participants 
inEvaluation


>
> Attention Braille Readers who are Attending the NFB National Convention in 
> Detroit:
>
> The Braille Authority of North America (BANA), in response to consumer
> requests, is conducting an evaluation of the Nemeth Uniform Braille
> System (NUBS). NUBS is an experimental code designed to include
> literary, math, and scientific information, combining all three codes
> into one unified system.
>
> As an initial phase of this evaluation, BANA is recruiting interested
> braille readers who will be attending the National Federation of the
> Blind (NFB) convention during July 3-5, 2009, in Detroit, Michigan.
> BANA is looking for a broad representation of participants--readers of
> various ages, with different levels of braille reading experience, and
> both casual and professional users of braille.
>
> At the convention, selected individuals will take part in sessions
> examining the experimental code. Some individuals will be assigned to
> a group task, and others to a half-hour individual task.  If an
> individual is not selected for the convention tasks, he or she will be
> welcome to participate in a later survey.
>
>  If you are interested in being considered as a participant in this
> phase, please send a message to brailleauthority at gmail.com. You will
> be asked to fill out a simple demographic questionnaire that will help
> BANA determine into which group you fall.  From all of the responses
> received BANA will create participant groups of similar size.
