Involve the deaf community, obviously! But alcohol to help? hmmm.
The second of 3 in this series of celebratory episodes for the University of Wolverhampton. Their BA (hons) BSL/English program is 30 years old. Today Megan, Sarah, and Becky discuss the overarching principles that helped design the curriculum and mission. We also discuss the influences and impact of the deaf community involvement, technology, collaborations, and much more.
My guests include:
Professor Megan Lawton, Founder
Sarah Bown, Senior Lecturer
Rebecca Fenton-Ree, former Senior Lecturer
(and mentioned: Kristiaan Dekesel, second Head of Department)
Their bios can be seen in the notes of episode 101.
Next week: We get more advice and are told the amazing and fun stories from these key figures and hear from several alumni of this sign language interpreting program at the University of Wolverhampton.
Enjoy.
