<p class="elementToProof" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black;">My name is<b> </b>Debbie. I am part of a team of master’s students at Georgia Institute of Technology conducting a research study to explore how people with vision impairments use
technology for knowledge learning daily. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black;">We are conducting 40 to 60-minute interviews to learn about the experiences of blind people when engaging in learning activities. We aim to understand any challenges and frustrations
that blind people face when learning new skills.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black;">We are looking for participants who are legally or completely blind. Participants must be 18 years or older – students or working professionals. The interviews will be conducted virtually
on Zoom. For this study, we are unable to compensate participants. </span></p>
<p class="elementToProof" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black;">If you are interested in participating, please reach out to me via email at

between 2/29 and 3/11 along with the time zone that works best for scheduling a time to interview you. We would be happy to work with an interview on the weekend if that works best for you. </span></p>
