ASLN 298 - Community Based Learning

1 Credit Hours
Community-Based Learning (CBL) connects students in the Deaf Studies Minor with organizations, agencies, schools and others in the Cincinnati area that serve the needs of or interact regularly with Deaf individuals. The Deaf Studies director brings to campus representatives from area organizations, agencies, and schools that work with or involve deal individuals; these representatives are matched with students based on their interests and major studies to discuss ways to serve the deaf community. Participation in a CBL Cooperative is designed to serve as a resource that helps students understand the perspectives of deaf individuals and is intended to motivate students to become used to interacting with individuals in the deaf community. CBL will also raise students’ willingness to engage in complex conversations and raise social and cultural awareness of issues facing the Deaf community.
