* Harvard Athletics is generously offering free tickets to Harvard sporting events and Harvard Athletics apparel as an incentive for taking part in the study.
* Tests require no more than two hours, and will take place at the Bentley usability lab in Waltham. Transport can be arranged for anyone who needs it. If you're interested in taking part in the study please fill out a brief questionnaire and let us know what your time availability is on weekends (we hope to start testing this weekend).Please click here to fill out a brief survey https://bentley.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_eJVIjG3brJGIsra.
