In this stage, you will transcribe strings of Greek letters. There will be two types of transcription assignments: easy and hard.
For the easy assignments the string length will be 6 letters (see figure 1A below).

For the hard assignments the string length will be 8 letters. In addition, the images provided for the hard assignment will be blurred (see figure 1B below).

By clicking on the appropriate buttons in the bottom row, you can generate a string that matches the image. If you believe you have made a mistake, you can correct your answer by clicking on the backwards button .
Note that the order of the buttons will be randomized for each assignment.
Practice Rounds
There will be two unpaid practice rounds in stage 2, one for the easy assignment and one for the hard assignment. You will work on the easy assignments first, then the hard assignments. Each practice round will last 60 seconds. The practice rounds will help you get familiar with the assignments.
After you experience the easy/hard assignments, you need to provide a rating for the difficulty of the assignments (with a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 = extremely easy and 5 = extremely difficult).
