Before working in pairs, you will be given a chance to experience the tasks that the worker will undertake: transcribing strings of Greek letters. There will be two types of transcription assignments: task 1 and task 2.
For task 1, the string length will be 6 letters (see figure 1A below).

For task 2, the string length will be 8 letters. In addition, the images provided 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.
Two practice rounds will take place: one for task 1 and one for task 2, each lasting 60 seconds. You will start with task 1, then move on to task 2. While these practice rounds are unpaid, they are designed to help you become acquainted with the transcription tasks, enabling you to perform better in subsequent paid stages.
After you experience task 1/task 2, you need to provide a rating for the difficulty of the assignments (with a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 = extremely easy and 10 = extremely difficult).
If you are ready to begin stage 2, please click the "NEXT" button.
