Re: [EXT] [Protocols] Agenda for April 8th, 2022 and Proposed Plan

Hi Jaunita and all,
Thanks for communicating an agenda ahead of time. I think this can be very helpful and avoid using the meeting time to agree.
Regarding #2, “Selecting and writing one protocol from scratch as an exercise,” I don’t think we would write a protocol. We could document how one might document using a protocol.
Previously we said we agreed to use PlainLanguage.gov as the protocol and then ended up evaluating what the US Department of Labor documented for their efforts to meet, as I read it, the Plain Writing Act, which is related but a law rather than a protocol. Now there’s a proposal to test “Protocol for how to perform testing against a user process,” using screen reader testing as a user process — but do we have a protocol to use?
Can we agree upon a protocol and site to test, go through the process of how a person might do that, as we previously agreed to do?
Thanks,
Jennifer

Hi All,

At the last meeting the team mentioned that I’ll be stepping in as a co-lead for the Protocols sub-group. I’m really excited to be working with you all in this capacity and to do what I can to further this discussion. I’m new to this, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if I make a mistake or forget something – I’m always available by email and am happy to also set aside time to meet and discuss any questions or comments you have. I really look forward to talking to you all on Friday. 😊

New meeting time:

Last meeting, we agreed to move our regular Friday meeting to 8:00am instead of 9:00am EST. This means that the Protocols Subgroup will be meet this Friday, April 8th at 8:00 AM Boston Time (1400 UTC). I sent out an invite, but please let me know if you didn’t receive it.

Plan for the next few meetings:

To help us answer some of these excellent questions we’ve tackling, I thought we could focus our efforts in the next few meetings to:


  1.  Achieving consensus on how we can use a protocol.



After we’ve achieved consensus on that question, we can move on to:

  1.  Selecting and writing one protocol from scratch as an exercise.

This may help us structure our discussions and help us continue moving forward on all of the wonderful work everyone’s doing – but let me know if you think we should change course at any time. This is only a proposal. 😊

With this idea in mind, here’s an agenda that outlines three examples that show how a protocol could *in theory* be used. We can discuss each of these and maybe propose different or additional examples and add to the list. The idea will be to select one example and write a specific protocol that could be used for that example as an exercise.

*** Agenda for Friday’s meeting ***

agenda+ Protocol for a standard where test results vary so you can't create a test case. We'll be discussing clear language as an example.
agenda+ Protocol for how to perform testing against a user process. We'll discuss screen reader testing as an example. **(Definition: User Process - Series of user actions, and the distinct interactive views that support the actions, where each action is required in order to complete an activity).**
agenda+ Protocol for how an organization can do user testing
