This book was released on 2020 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an increasing number of students pursuing a postsecondary education, colleges are looking at how to attract and keep students in school as states have increased accountability on colleges ensuring students are successfully obtaining degrees. One of the keys in this process is understanding how college choice may affect students' ability to successfully graduate with degrees. The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine how Deaf students come to a decision on which college they attend. Many studies have examined the college choice phenomenon for first-generation students, Students of Color, students of low socioeconomic status, and undocumented students. These studies have investigated how parent education background, cost of attendance and financial aid, reputation, location, and majors offered affect the decision-making process. With only 17% of Deaf individuals obtaining a bachelor's degree compared to 32% for their hearing peers (Garberoglio, Cawthon, & Sales, 2017), there exists a clear need to see how this college choice process may affect their long-term success in college. Through individual interviews with high school students and staff, Deaf students' college choice process was examined through the combined framework of Critical Race Theory, intersectionality, and Community Cultural Wealth. Findings revealed that participants generally aspired to pursue higher education at the encouragement of their families, but were limited when creating their college choice sets. Participants were not knowledgeable of the various types of colleges to choose from and did not know the names of specific colleges that had large Deaf student populations. Campus visits had a significant impact on participants' final college choice, but completing applications became difficult for some due to challenges with writing. Participants and their parents also had little understanding of the finances involved with a college education. The significance of the findings can perhaps lead to different educational settings of Deaf students, particularly schools for the Deaf, to reevaluate how they support students as they navigate the college choice process to ensure they persist in college and graduate.
Download or read book Deaf Students in Postsecondary Education written by Susan B. Foster and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1992. With an ever-increasing number of deaf students entering higher education throughout the world, major strides need to be made in provision and support for them. This book recognises that the integration of deaf students into mainstream higher education raises complex and challenging problems. It has proved extremely difficult for deaf students to enter fully into the social and extra-curricular fabric of campus life – an essential factor in ensuring student success. The authors provide an assessment of state-of-the-art practice in postsecondary settings and suggest theoretical and practical approaches to providing support. There is discussion of the attainments of deaf graduates with commentaries by deaf persons about their experiences in college. In addition, statistics support the theoretical contentions and clearly demonstrate the benefits of postsecondary education to deaf people.

Download or read book Raising and Educating a Deaf Child written by Marc Marschark and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this guide offers a readable, comprehensive summary of everything a parent or teacher would want to know about raising and educating a deaf child. It covers topics ranging from what it means to be deaf to the many ways that the environments of home and school can influence a deaf child's chances for success in academic and social circles. The new edition provides expanded coverage of cochlear implants, spoken language, mental health, and educational issues relating to deaf children enrolled in integrated and separate settings. Marschark makes sense of the most current educational and scientific literature, and also talks to deaf children, their parents, and deaf adults about what is important to them. Raising and Educating a Deaf Child is not a "how to" book or one with all the "right" answers for raising a deaf child; rather, it is a guide through the conflicting suggestions and programs for raising deaf children, as well as the likely implications of taking one direction or the other.

Download or read book Captioning and Subtitling for d Deaf and Hard of Hearing Audiences written by Soledad Zárate and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captioning and Subtitling for d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing Audiences is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of captioning and subtitling, a discipline that has evolved quickly in recent years. This guide is of a practical nature and contains examples and exercises at the end of each chapter. Some of the tasks stimulate reflection on the practice and reception, while others focus on particular captioning and SDH areas, such as paralinguistic features, music and sound effects. The requirements of d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences are analysed in detail and are accompanied by linguistic and technical considerations. These considerations, though shared with generic subtitling parameters, are discussed specifically with d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences in mind. The reader will become familiar with the characteristics of d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences, and the diversity – including cultural and linguistic differences – within this group of people. Based on first-hand experience in the field, the book also provides a step-by-step guide to making live performances accessible to d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences. As well as exploring all linguistic and technical matters related to the creation of captions, aspects related to the overall set up of the captioned performance are discussed. The guide will be valuable reading to students of audiovisual translation at undergraduate and postgraduate level, to professional subtitlers and captioners, and to any organisation or venue that engages with d/Deaf and hard of hearing people.
