style="FONT-FAMILY: 'serif'; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">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.</SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
