This workshop, presented in an interactive mode, will provide participants with practical
suggestions and resource information for solutions to common challenges (both academic and
non-academic) faced by professionals working with students who are deaf or hard of
hearing; challenges such as: intensive orientation programs to help students adapt to
college life, effective communication assessment and individual communication
training, effective remedial course structure for language arts and basic mathematics,
the interpreter/tutor model for more effective academic support, student success
courses related to personal living skills, and housing.
