Deaf Community Service Learning 1 (INTR 2150)
This course is the first of two courses designed to strengthen the interpreting student's ability to adapt to linguistic and cultural diversity within the Deaf community and to appropriately engage in the cultural norms of the Deaf community. Service learning provides authentic immersive experiences in a way not possible in the classroom. Through collaboration and volunteer service, students will participate in activities designed and led by Deaf community members. Guided by a Deaf instructor, students will participate in classroom seminars to reflect on their learning. The language of instruction will be ASL.
