1. Communication
Sign Language is important
Useful for the Deaf
3. Residential schools
Are wellsprings of Deaf Culture
Deaf Identity
5. A good sojourner
Immersed in a new culture
With an open mind
and all about what deaf people are like, what they like to do for fun, how deaf
people socialize, deaf history, how the deaf became deaf (e.g., born deaf or after
birth from illness), etc. There is a lot about Deaf culture and the language that I still
need to learn, but in this semester alone I have learned a lot (from both my Deaf
Studies and Deaf Culture classes). So wrote about the things in class that has
stayed with me throughout the term. I hope that other people who see this will learn
what Ive learned this semester, at least a little bit.
