As a Ph.D. candidate of Texas Women University finishing up her dissertation on Reading, I also have a Ph.D. minor in Deaf Studies from CSU, Northridge transfered to TWU. My advisor is Dr. Nancy Anderson of TWU, Reading department.

I'm wondering if you can help me find parents of Deaf child(ren) of any age for me. :bowdown: I'm attempting to reach out to all parents of Deaf children (of any age) for a survey on how they read to their children (both hearing and deaf).

If you have any questions, I'm more than willing to answer them.

Thank you,

Hi Parents of Deaf Child (of any age);

My name is Denyse. I am Deaf. My mom is Hard-of-Hearing and my
grandfather was Deaf. I have many other Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing family
members. My husband is also Deaf.

I am conducting research in order to fulfill the requirements for a
Ph.D. in Reading, and need your help in doing a survey.

I'm seeking an audience of parents having raised or are raising Deaf
child or children for a study...

Study Purpose: The purpose of the present study is to compare Deaf
parents' interactions with their Deaf children to those of hearing
parents with Deaf children in relation to language and literacy

For every one hundred participants, there will be a drawing for a $50.00 :deal:
gift certificate for American Express.

Thank you,

I'm a deaf parents that does read books to my kids....they are three and one. but kids are not deaf. however.. i do talk and sign at same time when i read to my boys.
 
i would love to hear about your findings. My son is deaf and this has been a completely new exsperince for me. right now I just let him flip the pages (he's 21 months) and when he stops on a page I try to find something I know the sign for and point and sig what it is and say it (though he can't hear me he loves to watch my mouth move.).
