This course approaches Deaf Culture and Community in more depth and introduces the topics of Deaf Education, Service Agencies for the d/Deaf, and Deaf Advocacy. The course includes a variety of activities including group discussion activities, lectures, videotaped panel discussions, and supplementary readings. Videotapes, assigned readings from required texts, and supplementary readings are used as springboards to discussion.
