Description

Still need one more hour of professional development?

Join us on December 9th @ 3:15pm!

// “Consulting with d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing Peers”: Student exposure to d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing people may be scarce therefore during these encounters, we might be unsure how to best interact. Given that those with varying degrees of hearing loss may and have sought help at the Writing Center, improving our consulting skills with this population is important. During this workshop, we will first learn the difference between deaf, Deaf, and Hard of Hearing as they fit into the scope of Deaf culture. In addition, we will become familiar with some assistive technology for further understanding. The session will conclude with tips and discussion regarding more effective communication with d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing people within and outside of work.
