> Are you (or do you know) a blind or low-vision student whose school uses
> technology for teaching and learning? Is some of that technology hard or
> impossible for you to use due to accessibility barriers? Your story could
> help change educators' and technologists' ideas about accessible
> technology. Previous research [2] has shown that blind people's stories
> helped to change educators' hearts and minds about accessible technology.

> Dr. Natalie Shaheen [3], Assistant Professor of special education at
> Illinois State University and former Director of Education for the National
> Federation of the Blind, is doing research to gather blind and low-vision
> students' (age 13-22) stories about using accessible and inaccessible
> technology at school. Dr. Shaheen will share the results of the research
> with educators and technologists to, hopefully, begin to change some of the
> technology practices in education and increase disabled students' access.
