Hi All,
First of all, I would like to
thank you for your time. As a bit of background, I am currently a
PhD student from Nanyang Technological University studying the
effects of computer character (agents) on intergenerational
behaviour.
I have created a virtual world for students to learn about the
Lower Secondary Science topics of Osmosis and Diffusion.
For one of my studies, I require pairs of testers from different
generations to help me test my system. For example, a father and
son pair, grandfather and grandson pair, niece and aunt pair etc,
as long as they are from different generations.
It would be preferable for the younger of the pair to be between
Primary 5 (ages 10-11) and Secondary 2 (ages 13-14).
Testing of the system will take about 20 minutes followed by a
survey which will take about 15 minutes. As a token of appreciation
for your time, each pair of testers will be presented with $15
worth of NTUC or Macdonalds vouchers depending on your
preference.
All details will be kept confidential and no user details will
be disclosed in the writing of the thesis. In my thesis, all
testers will be referred to by an ID, eg Youth A and Senior A, to
refer to each pair of participants. A softcopy of the thesis and
results will be provided (after submission) upon request.
Location of testing will be either
a) Nanyang Technological University or
b) A public space of your choosing near MRT, eg MacDonalds or
Library etc (will arrange upon contact)
