<p><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">I hope this email finds you well I am writing to seek your assistance in identifying about 6-8 volunteers (either faculty or research administrators). Included below is additional information on the NSF activity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">The NSF Proposal Submission Modernization (PSM) user experience team is seeking PIs or any other roles (OAU, SPO, or AOR) who are involved with preparing proposals for usability testing. Specifically, sessions will focus on selecting
where to apply for your proposal. Sessions are expected to begin in November and last 30-45 minutes. The typical session will be one-on-one, meaning one participant and one session moderator. During the session, the moderator will talk with the volunteer
(faculty or administrator) about their current experience with Research.gov and then ask to perform some common tasks, and to provide feedback about their experience.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">If you know of a faculty or administrative colleague would like to participate as an NSF volunteer tester, please respond to this email. A member of the user experience group will contact the volunteer with details and to schedule
their testing time. I welcome your forwarding of this request to interested colleagues as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">We know FDP members are eager to assist with NSF Research.gov efforts. We thank you in advance and look forward to hearing from you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
