For my research proposal, I want to do something that is both meaningful and holds value to disenfranchised/ underrepresented groups. Personally, I think that research should be conducted for the means of helping society progress. Furthermore, those who do not have means of understanding anything research/educated related and its benefit for being conducted should be given an opportunity to be identified as a subject in a UX research experiment. My idea for research will follow a Postmodern goal and give attention to underrepresented users of computer softwares and or anything related to technical communication i.e. grafts and statistical analysis. Another idea I have thought about is to include research of how technical communication could be misrepresented. For this research, I would like to focus on ethical issues that certain users could face. For now, these are my ideas and I have yet to decide on an actual research proposal.
