Evidence you will build
- HCI audit report
- Interface prototype (v1 and v2)
- User test feedback record
- Revised interface with accessibility annotations
Why this matters
Science platforms only serve communities when interfaces are readable, accessible, and honest about data limits.
What you will investigate and collect
You will audit, prototype, test, and revise a simple interface — arguing for accessibility with evidence. Whether a digital interface meets accessibility and HCI standards for a real science audience. Audit notes, prototype screenshots, user feedback, revision annotations.
