 I send this from a researcher who needs some help.

 Dear students and NABS listers,
I am conducting a study on the current uses and accessibility of podcasts in
online college courses. The current uses of audio podcasts and the
accessibility of audio podcasts in U.S. online college courses as perceived
by learners with vision loss is unknown. For that reason, we are requesting
that you please take our survey to share your perspective. A link to the
online survey on Survey Gizmo is below. The survey will take approximately
15 minutes to complete and will be anonymous.

Please pass this announcement on to any blind college students that you
know. Please forward to other student lists you are on. 
Thank you.

Yes, the Missouri Association of Blind Students and a parent network that
might also get things out.

Subject: Question


Hello. I am conducting a study on the current uses and accessibility of
podcasts in online college courses. I am hoping to have 100 or more college
students and college graduates with vision loss to take my online survey
about how they used podcasts and how accessible those podcasts were in their
online courses. I only have about 10 surveys collected so far. I was
wondering if you would be able to help me reach out to this population of
students. I really feel that this research will have a positive impact in
making online courses more accessible, so I want to be sure that I am doing
a good job of getting the word out to students through student listservs or
other means.

 
Do you have a student listserv for the blind within your state where I could
send an announcement out regarding my study? Thank you for any ideas that
you can share that would help me.
