Hello,

I am recruiting for participants to be involved in a research study regarding the experiences of students with hearing impairments at university and university practice towards inclusion.

I am conducting this study as the basis for the degree of BA Education at The University of East Anglia. This will take place under the supervision of Dr Rebecca Westrup at the University of East Anglia.

I am seeking current students OR graduates with hearing impairments to participate in one semi-structured interview with myself, prior to the 8th March 2019.
The interview is expected to take between 20-40 minutes and will be conducted at a suitable time and location, or via telephone/video-call.
Questions will be reflecting on your experience at university as a student with a hearing impairment.  

Should you be interested in participating and fit the criteria, please contact me at [email protected]
If you know of anyone who may be interested in participating, please forward them my contact details so that I can provide further information.
Furthermore, an interpreter will be available, if requested in advance.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions that you may have.

 

About me:

My name is Cat and I am studying for a degree in Education with the aim of completing a PhD.
I have been a member of my university BSL society for three years and held a committee position for one year.
I am a level 1 signer and wish to continue to practice and learn BSL to gain level 6!

    • I'm learning BSL so I can communicate with my friend and others. It's outrageous that we were never taught this at school so that we can communicate with D/deaf people. I hope to surprise my friend next time I see them. I'm a little worried that I don't pick things up fairly quickly but hopefully I can start to have a conversation with them when I next see them. 
    • Hi I'm Ellie, I've just started learning sign language so I can communicate with a friend. I'm quite nervous that it will take me a while to pick things up but I'm ashamed we never learnt BSL in school and that I couldn't just communicate with my friend naturally. 
    • I'm learning BSL because I have hearing loss and tinnitus due to meneieres disease and my hearing getting worse.  I originally took a level 1 course 25+ years ago as I had a friend who was profoundly deaf and a BSL teacher. Unfortunately we lost touch, but now I'm learning again 
    • Hi, my name is Gareth and I'm new to this forum. Picking up learning BSL after taking a level 1 course 25+ years ago
    • Hi!! ive been learning BSL since I was 11 and when I went to uni I thought there would be a BSL society.... there was not, so im here instead
    • I'm autistic and, though I generally have little issue using spoken languages, I find myself looking for an alternative that might feel more comfortable and be more accessible to me during verbal shutdowns. Furthermore, BSL will allow me to connect with more people in the disabled community and other communities I am a part of, which I really value.
    • Hello! My name is Rowan and I use he/him pronouns. I'm currently completing an introductory course to British sign language. I've been wanting to learn for a while so I'm very excited!
