3. Learning Ally is paying Blind and Visually Impaired College Students up
to $550 for a Research Study  <http://www.blindbargains.com/link/9296> 


Learning Ally wants to learn how to better serve their blind and visually
impaired customers. they are looking for college students to participate in
a multi-month study to get feedback about how blind and visually impaired
students access their materials. According to their website, this is what
the study would entail: "The study has been designed to allow students to
share their experiences with us at their own pace and in their own words. We
plan on following students at the start of the semester. Over the course of
the semester, they will be asked to leave voice-mail messages to reflect on
their successes and challenges. At two points in the semester, researchers
will meet with the student to further discuss and observe their academic
experiences. Student participation will be compensated at several points in
the semester and students will be able to withdraw from the study at any
time and for any reason." Participants may be compensated up to $550 if they
complete the study. Students in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut will
be given preference. If you're interested in participating, contact Ksenia
