Poster workshop11/6/2022 This Thursday, I'm giving a poster workshop with Nathan Horton for the TESL/Ling professional development series. We'll go over the basics of conference sessions and poster design, then talk about upcoming student projects and presentations.
OSU at OSLHA10/1/2022 My department - both faculty and students - made a great showing at our state conference, the Oklahoma Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Faculty gave several talks and workshops, all 8 posters were from OSU students and faculty labs, and our students beat our rivals OU at the first annual Praxis Bowl! Students from my lab presented two posters about our Deaf Experience, Deaf Expression (DXDX) Project: Bailey Smith and Mary Vang described the process of creating the video interview corpus with teams of students in a project-based course, and grad student Tess Meyer presented her thematic analysis of sudden situational loss of communication due to things like noisy restaurants, dead hearing aid/cochlear implant batteries, taking off devices for swimming, masks, and Zoom. I was very proud of all our students, and I'm so glad to see our state conference back to full activities and providing so many opportunities for student involvement. DXDX at FOOLS9/9/2022 This week, three students and I presented three posters about the Deaf Experience, Deaf Expression (DXDX) Project at the Friends of Oklahoma Language Studies meeting. I used last year's ASHA poster to introduce the project, Bailey Smith and Mary Vang practiced their presentation for the upcoming OSLHA conference about student involvement in the project, and Tess Meyer practiced her OSLHA presentation about her thematic analysis. The project was well received, and people had great questions and ideas for further uses of the corpus. All three students did a great job presenting their work!
AURCA funding8/14/2022 Funding has been renewed for a computer science student to work on my Deaf Experience, Deaf Expression (DXDX) Project. The OSU College of Arts and Sciences' Advancing Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity (AURCA) program funds work-study for research projects. My student will build a public database of searchable video clips from my interviews with d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing people.

Their flow chart illustrates the tasks that students in my lab and honors courses have completed while "Building the Deaf Experience, Deaf Expression (DXDX) Project." See their poster and abstract here: https://shareok.org/handle/11244/335224. Outstanding Junior & McNair Scholar3/18/2022 Two students on my DXDX project have received prestigious awards! Bailey Smith was named a College of Arts and Sciences Outstanding Junior, and Mary Vang was accepted to the McNair Scholars program. They have both been active in multiple aspects of the project, getting experience with all stages of research. The McNair program includes an intensive summer institute where Mary will draft a lit review and methods proposal for an honors thesis, as well as attend conferences and prepare for applying to grad schools. Both plan to graduate next year.
