Have you contributed to open-source software projects as a designer or a developer during the past year? We are inviting you to take part in an interview study conducted by researchers from Polytechnique Montréal and McGill University.
Study Goal: This study aims to improve OSS processes and tools by exploring new ways to involve designers in OSS communities through innovative design approaches.
Time Commitment: Approximately one hour per session, with two sessions in total.
Process: You will participate in two individual interview sessions, where we will explore your experiences contributing to OSS projects and ask for your reflections based on fictional worlds, we created to inspire discussion on OSS design and usability. The interviews will be conducted virtually (via Teams or Zoom) and will be video recorded for accuracy.
Compensation: You will receive a total of $60 CAD for your participation in both sessions.
Confidentiality: Your privacy is a priority. Your information and identity will remain confidential and accessible only to the research team.
Contact: If have any questions please contact me directly here or by emailing me at Rozhan.hozhabri-nezhad@polymtl.ca. Looking forward to hearing from you!
