Hey Everyone,
My name is April and I am currently a student at The College of New Jersey majoring in Deaf Education. As part of this teacher preparation program, I am required to take a course on the Social and Legal Foundations of Special Education. In place of having a final exam for this course, our professor has asked us to do a research-based Inquiry Project on a topic of our own choosing. I have decided to do mine on Deaf Education and the use of Cochlear Implants. Through this project we are required to interview three people that are knowledgeable about the topic; preferably a person with a disability, a family member, and a professional. If I were able to find a Deaf person with a Cochlear Implant, one without, and then a family member or a professional on the topic that would also be acceptable. I currently have no connection with the Deaf Community, so I am hoping that the members of this website would be willing and able to help me. I would like to conduct these interviews through email and I am currently in the process of developing questions. I do not have a set age of the people I would like to interview as I feel a range of experience would make my project interesting.
I am not sure how this works, or if my email is visible, but feel free to reply back to this post if your are interested and we can exchange emails. Thank you so much for your time.
