Hello. I realized that the original email that I sent to you doesn't contain a link to my survey. My survey announcement is below.

 

Thank you again for your 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.

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.
