This document provides an introduction to deaf identity for higher education professionals. It begins with introductions and outlines the session goals of checking in with participants, discussing the conceptual framework, and covering terms and concepts related to deaf identity and implications for higher education. The conceptual framework draws on social constructivism and symbolic interactionism theory to understand identity development within deaf and hearing contexts from a bilingual, multicultural perspective. Key terms are defined, such as the difference between deafness and Deaf, and perspectives on deaf identities are discussed. The implications of deaf identity for optimizing equity and inclusion in higher education are also covered.

NCORE2016-DeafIdentity102 (1)
This document summarizes a presentation about deaf identity and intersectionality. It discusses conceptual frameworks for understanding deaf identity development, including processes like nigrescence that describe becoming culturally enculturated. It also covers concepts like audism, which refers to societal prejudices that consider hearing and speech as superior to signing. The presentation emphasizes that identities are complex and intersectional, shaped by membership in multiple diverse groups. It promotes a paradigm shift toward views of deafness as a cultural identity rather than solely a medical condition.
PR в условиях культурной специфичности
This document discusses strategies for successful multicultural public relations. It defines multiculturalism as describing cultural diversity and promoting this diversity through ideologies or policies. It also discusses whether societies can be described as "melting pots", where cultures blend together, or "salad bowls", where they remain distinct. The document provides examples of companies seeking to protect their brands in different cultural contexts and discusses issues around cultural appropriation. It also examines data on teens' use of social media and their reasons for disliking Facebook. Overall, the document advocates considering different cultural norms and perspectives to avoid miscommunication in intercultural interactions.
Essay on Culture Understanding
This document discusses cultural understanding and frameworks for analyzing culture, focusing on Geert Hofstede's model of cultural dimensions. It summarizes Hofstede's five dimensions of culture - power distance, individualism vs collectivism, masculinity vs femininity, uncertainty avoidance, and long-term vs short-term orientation. It also outlines advantages and limitations of Hofstede's framework, noting it provides a standardized way to compare cultures but may overgeneralize or not account for internal diversity within countries. The conclusion is that culture is a complex, dynamic concept that influences behaviors and there is no single model that fully explains cultural differences.

Final Essay- Defend Deaf culture
Deaf culture meets the definition of culture according to the author's Deaf Culture class. Deaf culture has its own norms around social interactions and communication. It is a shared group identity with common beliefs, values, and experiences of discrimination. Deaf culture is expressed through its own art, literature, traditions, technology, and shared American Sign Language. It is created and inherited within Deaf families and communities, and continues to be carried on through schools and history.
Activities to Build Cultural Competence
This document describes five activities from edchange.org for building cultural competence in classrooms presented by Paul C. Gorski. The activities are:
1. A "respect" activity where students introduce themselves and discuss what respect means. This allows students to build community and reflect on cultural assumptions around respect.
2. A "knowing the community" activity where students share their names, backgrounds and traditions. This helps students learn about each other and find commonalities across differences.
3. A "who am I poem" activity where students write short poems with each line beginning "I am". This encourages self-reflection and opportunities for connections.
4. An "inclusion/exclusion" activity
Cultural identity development
This document discusses cultural identity development and James Banks' six stages of ethnic identity development. The stages progress from ethnic psychological captivity, where one has a monocultural experience and suffers stereotypes, to stages of reinforcing cultural identity, biethnicity, multiculturalism, and ultimately developing global identities and competencies. The document suggests considering what stage of cultural identity development oneself and one's friends are at and whether this perspective would change how one views friends.
Developing cultural competence
The document outlines an exercise for developing cultural competence. It discusses defining key terms like culture, competence, knowledge, awareness and sensitivity. Culture is defined as integrated patterns of human behavior including thoughts, communication, customs and beliefs of social groups. Competence is having the capacity to function within a cultural context. The document also presents a cultural competence continuum ranging from cultural destructiveness to cultural proficiency. Participants will do exercises to reflect on their reactions to new cultural situations and ways to enhance understanding of cultural differences.

A Survey of Opinions of Major Stakeholders Regarding the Feasibility and Nece...International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR)
The study sought to find out the feasibility and necessity of the hearing impaired child to speak. The researchers after visiting one of the special schools in South Africa were amused to see the deaf children speaking. It is against this background that the researchers were prompted to carry out the study. A sample of twelve teachers from one special school in Zimbabwe was selected as a research study. The school head and fifteen students were also selected. A survey study was used. The research instruments used were document analysis, the questionnaires and the interview. Questionnaires were administered to twelve teachers and fifteen pupils. Face to face interview was carried out with one of the school heads. The study revealed that most teachers were not proficient in the use of the sign language so they welcomed the proposal of enhancing the deaf child to speak. Mixed sentiments were given by the deaf children. The idea of enabling the deaf child to speak was welcomed by most of the students. Some students furiously responded that they are not eager and will never bother themselves by trying to speak. The study recommended that both oral and sign language ought to be used so that the deaf child will not face communication challenges with their peers and the people at large. Teachers need to show a positive attitude and some dedication when dealing with the hearing impaired students. There is also need to have some workshops so that the teachers will learn the sign language since there is a recommendation to promote the learning of both oral and sign language. Parents for the deaf children should work hand in glove with the school to enhance their children to benefit from both ends, that is, the school and at home.

Identity & Culture
This document discusses identity development and cultural identity. It defines identity as a person's self-conception derived from their socialization experiences. Identity is dynamic and changes throughout life. People can have multiple identities, including cultural, social, and personal identities. Cultural teachings, others' perceptions, self-perceptions, and social comparisons influence identity development. A person's identities are largely acquired through group memberships like family and through the socialization process from a young age. In a globalized world, cultural diversity and mixed cultural identities are increasingly common.
FROM NIGERIA TO FIJI – ANDREW FOSTER TOUCHES
Andrew Foster was the first Black Deaf person to graduate from Gallaudet University in 1954. From 1957 to 1987, he established 32 mission schools and churches for Deaf people across 13 African countries. Two of his protégés, Matthew Adedeji and Olawale Alade, continued his work of establishing schools for Deaf people in Fiji. Adedeji founded the Gospel School for the Deaf in Fiji in 1999 after discovering a lack of education available for Deaf Fijians. Alade succeeded him as the school's head teacher later that year, modeling the methods Andrew Foster had used to establish schools in Africa.
Strategic Planning
Strategic planning determines where an organization is going over the next year or more, how it's going to get there, and how it'll know if it got there. Developing a strategic plan has several benefits, including helping leaders see the broad perspective and take the long view, understand their organization better, and make the organization more effective. When developing a strategic plan, it's important to involve stakeholders and leadership in the process to gain support for implementation. Once completed, the next step is to commit to implementing the goals through action plans and periodic review to ensure the strategic plan is successfully carried out.

Conceptual framework Understanding the development of identity in deaf individuals within hearing and Deaf contexts by applying: • A bilingual, multicultural perspective • Drawing on constructs from: – Social Constructivism – Symbolic interactionism theory Social Constructivism • Individual learns through group interactions • Access to a community and its culture is essential for an individual’s understanding of themselves and the world • A group creates its reality, and essentially its culture, through their interactions and collective interpretation of their environment and its stimuli • Access to these interactions is mediated by language; each individual must have unhampered access to that shared language!
- 2. 6/1/16 2 deafness vs. Deaf • Medically-oriented term • A state; condition • Diagnosis • Abnormality • Handicap/disability • Individualism • Cultural and linguistic • Way of “being” • Normality • Recognized • Beliefs and values • Collectivism Is sign language universal? VIDEO Symbolic interaction theory • Feedback from others affects how individuals see themselves, use language, and make sense of the world • Social interactions shape Individual development and identity formation • We learn to behave as others expect us to behave, according to designated societal or community roles • The beliefs and values that a community develops are comprised of the beliefs and values of its members VIDEO Without a legitimately recognized language, there is no culture; without a culture, there is no self-identity; without a self-identity, you just go on trying to be what others demand you to be.

Paddy Ladd Optimizing equity and inclusion in higher education for deaf and hard of hearing students At Gallaudet, [being Deaf] isn’t an issue. You don’t even think about it. Students can pay attention to accounting or psychology or journalism. But when a deaf person goes to another college, no matter how supportive it is, that person doesn’t get the same access. I.
