Review Smartphone Apps for the Journal!
Do you own a smartphone, such as an iPhone, Blackberry, or Droid? Are you familiar with the wide variety of food and nutrition apps developed for these and other similar phones? Would you like to share your opinion with your fellow ADA members? If so, you’re the perfect candidate to join the Journal’s new smartphone app reviewer pool. Beginning in January of 2011, the Journal’s New in Review column will feature the new Apps in Review section, which will provide Journal readers with information on food and nutrition–related smartphone apps designed for both dietetics practitioners and consumers—but first we need a group of tech-savvy RDs to serve as reviewers.
ADA Research Tool Kit Usability Testing
Are you interested in the latest dietetics research, but are not always certain what the results mean? Do you want to collect outcomes data, but are not quite sure how to get started? A new "hot off the presses" online Research Toolkit is ready for testing. ADA has developed the toolkit and is looking for volunteers who are interested in learning more about research to help test the usability of the Toolkit before it is available to all ADA members. The review process will begin in late September 2010 and will take 3-5 hours of your time.
