[BlindMath] Hoping you can help us recruit for a study about stakeholders experiences with college-level math - seeking BLV students, university math instructors, TAs and GAs, and disability office staff for a survey

[Susan Osterhaus]

I’m hoping that some of you on this list can assist  Dr. Herzberg and Dr.
Rosenblum.



Best wishes,

Susan



My colleague, Dr. L. Penny Rosenblum, and I are excited to have the
opportunity to conduct the research study, *Identifying Factors Associated
with Success in College Mathematics for Students Who Are Blind or Have Low
Vision: Insights from Students, Faculty, and Support Personnel*. We could
really use your help in recruiting for the study.

We are recruiting four groups of stakeholders to complete a 30-minute
survey. All stakeholders will have met participation requirements in fall
2023 or later. The groups are:

   - College students who are blind or have low vision (BLV) and have
   enrolled in a math course
   - University instructors of math courses who have had a student who is
   BLV in their course
   - University teaching assistants, graduate assistants, or math tutors
   who have worked with a student who is BLV
   - Employees of disability service offices who have supported a student
   who is BLV enrolled in a math course

If you meet our college student criteria, we hope you will participate in
the study. Attached is a formal letter of invitation.

We would also really appreciate your help in recruiting other stakeholders.
Will you take a few minutes to share the attached invitation with

   - Other college students
   - Your current and past college level math instructors
   - Teaching assistants and graduate assistants who support students who
   are BLV in math
   - Staff at your college/university disability service office.



To participate in the study, individuals will complete the survey at

Thank you,

Tina & Penny
