Feasability  =  Easability

Use  Study  –  Digital  Archive  of  Literacy  Narra@ves  

 

DALN  seeks  literacy  narra@ves  –  personal  recorded  stories  of  how  one  learned  to  read,  write  and  compose,  from  everyday  ci@zens.      Instruc@ons  for  uploading  mp3’s  today    are    mul@-­‐stepped.    Submission  from  a  smart  phone  –  with  transcripts  –  would  be  a  boon.

Use  Study  –  Elliston  Poetry  Curator  

•  The  Elliston  poetry  curator  at  University  of  Cincinna@  has  been  hos@ng  noted  poets  and  making  analog  recordings  for  decades  –  s@ll  doing  so  –  would  be  great  for  him  to  have  a  digital  method  that  would  not  be  mul@-­‐stepped  and  would  not  require  mul@ple  devices,  using  an  android  tablet  or  iPad,  and  he  would  be  ecsta@c  to  have  transcrip@ons.

Use  Study  –  tablets  in  the  field  •  Researchers  are  using  mobile  devices  in  the  field.    The  ability  to  upload  an  audio  or  video  file  at  the  point  of  crea@on-­‐with  transcript-­‐  would  greatly  enhance  the  rate  of  contribu@on.
