Description:
Teaching Assistant for Human Computer Interaction required
primarily to help maintain, support and mark the practical exercise.
Details of last year's exercise (creating a speech synthesis demo) are
here:

Ideally this practical would be re-used, but it may require some redesign.
In particular we may want to change to using the Festival Speech synthesis
system, so familiarity with this system would be very helpful.
The post may also involve marking of the MSc course exercise described here:
