LEAD-ME Summer Training School: Eye tracking in media accessibility research - methods, technologies and data analyses
The 2021 LEAD-ME Summer School addresses major questions related to harnessing the potential of eye tracking for media accessibility research. We will discuss fundamental concepts of eye tracking research as applied to media accessibility, focusing on a variety of research methods, tools, statistical analyses and research communication.
Participants will be invited to take part in a series of talks and workshops. Additionally, early-career researchers will have a chance to participate in hands-on afternoon sessions. Working in smaller groups in break-out rooms, they will discuss, design, conduct and present small-scale research projects using the online eye tracking tool by RealEye. Presenting their projects on the last day of the summer school, they will get feedback from more seasoned researchers and eye tracking research practitioners.
The Summer School is a fully virtual event.
