Re: [AI] important read- a very insightful tweet thread shared by a scribe who wrote the SBI exam for a visually impaired person.

2019-06-25 Thread Austin Pinto
these are all the messages by Harsh
‏ @harsh6363 on this subject unchanged and its in 1 thread.

Since it's been really bothering me, I think it's better I write about it.

Yesterday I went to assist one visually impaired candidate, as his
scribe. This is the first time I was doing so and I didn't know how
the process worked.
I didn't anticipate I was in for a shocker.
This was for SBI clerk prelim exam, which was scheduled for 4:30-6 PM on Powai.
People with disability and without disability were taking the exam
together at the same centre.
As the candidate I was assisting arrived, we entered the centre. First
shock was here, when I realised apart from having just a separate
entrance, there was nothing done to assist these folks.
What I mean is, no was ensuring that a proper queue is maintained.
No one was telling scribe, who were there for the first time as to
what they need to do or make sure. The staff sitting at enrollment
letter checking counter was borderline rude.
After getting scribe form and attaching his and mine documents, we
were told to go to examination hall. Before any person could proceed
to examination hall, they were to supposed to keep bags in shelves
which were kept in an area which seemed like parking area of the
building.
Since a person cannot take mobile to hall, all were supposed to keep
them in their bags and keep those bags in those shelves. Another
shocker here, there was no lock facility here and the way crowd was
just all over the place, no wonder if anything gets stolen from here.
Imagine going for an exam, you are already stressed, then no
arrangements for people with disability, and then having to leave all
your stuff just like that, out on open with no to be accountable if
anything gets stolen.
After this, I took this candidate to his respective examination hall.
If not more, this hall was meant for minimum of 60 candidates plus
their scribes. With   scribes, that makes 120 people in one hall. A
training hall where each desk has one system and seating for one ONLY.
But in such a facility, almost 120 of us were seated, shoulder to shoulder.
As I didn't know what the process is how I am to help this person, I
was waiting and thinking may be they'll tell something, some basic
guidelines and guidance, but no.
Absolutely no help from the staff assisting there or the invigilators.
What they were focused on was to just get the goddam signature/thumb
impression and that's it.
Coming to the exam. The exam was entirely on computer.
So, how it works is, the questions will be served, the scribe has to
read the question and the options and candidate has to tell the
scribe, what answer option they wish to mark.
For people with disability, the ONLY extra bit was they'd get 20
MINUTES EXTRA to attempt the paper, the paper which is same for people
with disability and without disability.
To put things in perspective, imagine sitting for an exam, where the
difficulty level of exam is same for all, but a person without
disability is reading and processing the questions and options all by
their own self and also, they can write themselves use rough sheet.
Now, considering a person with disability, for whom the scribe has to
read the question, explain the options, this candidate, has to process
this information, in case of VI, they cannot write because well,
obviously.
To add to that, 60 scribes are reading questions and options to their
respective candidates in a room, where all are sitting shoulder to
shoulder. How is anyone supposed to take the exam like that, HOW.
Coming to the exam paper.
The questions were same for people with disability and people without
one. To put things in perspective, a person with disability has to
attempt same questions the only difference being the person gets 20
mins extra.
So basically imagine, you are assisting a visually impaired (VI)
person, for whom, you'd read out the questions and options, that
person has to retain that information and then tell the scribe what
option to choose.
Now imagine, a logical reasoning questions, arrangement type question,
where there are 7 things to be arranged, there are a few rules in
question, this goes here and that goes there and all of it, and having
to retain all that information without writing.
And then, figuring out the entire arrangement and telling your scribe
which option to choose.
There were 10+ questions based on this format on Logical Reasoning section.
Coming to english section, questions were like arrangement of
sentences to form a paragraph. FIB, identify wrong usage of word of
spelling.
I could see how the candidate I was with struggling to process this.
Like you have to retain all the information and answer.
And similarly, math section.

Coming to issues.
1. Why no proper arrangements for helping people with disability. If
authorities don't even care then why even make arrangement.
2. Why no proper arrangements to keep stuff?
3. Why can't staff be a bit more considerate?
4. Why can't the examination hall be

I too have helped the visually challenged people write exams in Podar
college the arrangements were quite good, it was a mixture of regular

Is there a common platform for people to register as scribes?

We usually get messages on WhatsApp but check out this handle
@ummehaani13 , she herself is a visually challenged person and an

can do so much to help out.

This is heartbreaking.

Gandhian with a Keyboard
Firstly, 20 minutes by itself sounds trivial but it must have been a
60 minutes Exam so it's 1/3rd the time. Secondly, they are being
judged against Candidates of their own kind on the same parameters.
Also, the Cut-Offs for Visually Impaired Candidates sometimes
breaches...
that of the Orthopedically Handicapped/ST candidates because a lot of
these Scribes are Paid 'Scholars'. Not saying that facilities
shouldn't be better for Law-abiding Visually Impaired Candidates but
do consider all aspects.

Dude, you need to lower your expectations!! Empathy, humanity , ethics
-- nothing. This is "no country for disabled people". Had it been

reality/fact that no privileges will be given to disabled people.

All other things are usual routine.
Except maybe, the issue of maths and reasoning being solved by VI.
Maybe, it is really unrealistic to expect that much of mental processing.
But we have done it ourselves...

Maybe, the level was easier about two decades ago...


But what do you do when critical majority are bringing in  scribes in a package

I suggest that all V I Bankers shoul deliberate upon the tasks they can take up 
after they the job. The candidates must be tested on skill sets which they 
require in bank.

I feel they must be tested for communication skills, both verbal and writing 
skills ,  computer, and adequate knowledge of banking procedures and finance.

When the vacancies are year marked for them why should be require appear in the 
exam with the general lot. This requires in-depth thinking, research and of 
course lot of advocacy . Because those who are competent and are not able to 
get the writer who can help them in the exam get left out.

The java access bridge is a mechanism that communicates between java

center if you are using Windows 10. Restart your screen reader and then see
if Oracle studio is accessible.

If Kriya is studying only basic database management, she can use sql * +
assuming that is still around to carryout database management tasks. Oracle
studio is not needed for the work she is doing.

[AI] Nationwide contest seeks to unearth and showcase talented blind cooks

2019-06-25 Thread Ramya Venkitesh
Source: https://newzhook.com/story/22635

The joy of cooking can be experienced by anyone, that's the driving thought
behind a cooking contest for visually impaired people to be held nationwide
soon.

Blind Masterchefs like Christine Ha have shown the world that given the
right tools and training, people with visual disabilities can cook and cook
well. Now, an upcoming cooking competition aims to give visually impaired
people the opportunity to pit their skills against each other.

Called Golden Eye Chef 2019, the cooking contest is an initiative of an NGO
called Antardrishti.  The contest is nationwide and will be held in Agra
from 17 to 20 October this year. The last date for registering for the
contest is 30 June, 2019.

Akhil Srivastava, managing trustee of Antardrishti, hopes to change the
outlook of society with this competition.

"Most people in society feel that blind people cannot be independent and
cook. The Golden Eye Chef competition will bring about the much needed
change in the perception of people. It will also help open employment
opportunities for blind people and motivate others to seek training in
cooking and be independent". - Akhil Srivastava, Managing Trustee, NGO
Antardrishti

Re: [AI] Promoting XL cinema app

2019-06-25 Thread dipti prasad
Dear timy

Thankyou for your email. Let's take this in steps: which movie were you
using the app for on YouTube?
Xlcinema makes AD tracks upon the content owners agreement so we need
approvals and permissions for the production houses.
The above link is for playstore/appstore. After downloading the app, one
can write a review. You comments and suggestions are important to create
awareness in the industry in proving the demand for AD tracks.

Regards
