Website Walkthrough

The purpose of the website walkthrough is to give volunteers a sense of how the Ukrainian Folklore Audio Project will work for you. How do you check out audio? How you submit transcriptions or translations? Can you download the audio and work for your desktop? Questions that volunteers have will be answered to facilitate accessibility of the website. Multimedia crowdsourcing sites can be complicated, but we made a conscious effort to keep it simple.

Ukrainian Folklore Audio Project

• To access the website you can surf to the webpage by typing in "Ukrainian Folklore Audio Project" in your preferred search engine or have entered the URL that Dr. Natalie Kononenko provided in the initial contact email. Once opening the site you can choose to explore the public space or login.
• The Public space provides web surfers to discover the project on their own, the "About," "Home," and "Contact Us" pages familiarize and temp those that may have cultural ties or interesting in Ukraine heritage.
• There is access to the audio clips for public listeners, but they cannot check out the clips unless they receive permission from Dr. Kononenko.

• • A Graduate student types "Ukrainian Folklore Audio Project" into their preferred search engine.
