Quarterly progress report (tomorrow) - done Presence paper? - no Finish up reading – done, but not finished Write out plan for experiments– thought about it, but not written up Draw up questionnaire - no Speak to CAMA people for “map” of data – meeting was postponed Work out format for 1st experiment – some of it Devise tasks for 1st set of groups - no From Last Month:

  3. Reading • Lunneborg et al - “Everyday Spatial Activities Test” • Sayers et al – “Navigation in Non-immersive Virtual Environments” • Thurstone et al – “Primary Mental Abilities” (1938) • Darken et al – “Spatial Orientation and Wayfinding in Large-Scale Virtual Environments” • Iwata & Yoshida – “Path Reproduction Tests Using a Torus Treadmill” • Templeman et al – “Virtual Locomotion: Walking in Place through Virtual Environments”

  4. Reading • Bowman, et al – “Maintaining Spatial Orientation during Travel in an Immersive Virtual Environment” • Gray & Salzman – “Damaged Merchandise?” – reading group paper • Loui – “Design as Inquiry: The Methodological Legacy of AI” • Wickens – “Engineering Psychology and Human Performance” • Bechtel – “Environment and Behavior”

  5. Other Stuff... • 2 full weeks of networks demos and marking • PLT exam paper & marking of tests (1 day) • Typed up reading list – now in .bib format (2 days!) • Quarterly Progress Report • Devised Spatial Ability Test

  7. To Do: • Presence paper • Still more reading • Write out plan for experiments (2 days) • Draw up questionnaire (2 days) • Physically draw up spatial ability test – maybe run pilot & combine with Lunneborg’s self report SAT • Work out format for 1st experiment (what to compare to, layout, what interactions there will be, what is needed) • Devise tasks for 1st set of groups (two weeks together) • Going to SAICSIT (2 days)
