Fall 2021 Project Teams
Students are spending the semester working with community members in interdisciplinary teams. One of the course goals is for teams to collaborate equally to develop an accessibility solution. To this end, we gave teams the following advice to get started:
- Don’t make changes to anyone’s personal equipment.
- Don’t act as clinicians (even if you are a trained clinician). Don’t make clinical decisions for this project.
- Limit risk. Make sure everyone on the team has discussed and is aware of the potential risks of any solution (physical, privacy, usability, etc).
- Create an environment where everyone can share ideas freely and has equal opportunity to collaborate.
- Always get consent from everyone on the team before posting content on the website.
- Focus on simple problems with simple solutions first.
- Remember that the semester goes quickly.
- Make a schedule.
- Have fun!
