After thefirst day of class she wrote, “Today’s session really got me thinking about whathappiness is and what it means to ‘change the world’.” She was struck by learning aboutthe conditions of community as expressed in the following quotes: “Hearing about thedifficulties that women face on a day-to-day basis was heartbreaking to hear, andalthough I am grateful I have the opportunity to learn about the realities of somepeople’s situations, it still makes me very sad.” “[S]ometimes I feel almost guilty abouthow many comforts and rights I have compared to others

Whenyou're a kid it ha[s] a great influence on you, because ... your dad just looked like an Einstein.”For Sean, being a good son was tied up in being a good teacher and a good engineer, as successin one indicates success in the others. He also drew on his experiences and identity as a non-native speaker when talking about his work teaching engineering, as demonstrated in thefollowing quote: “One of my students asked me, ‘Oh my god. I got a minus work, a negative work.’ ... Don't feel bad about the negative work…. This negative means that this is work out of your system, not into your system.

spring of 2017. The Historical Society director wanted to show the shift from flour milling topaper milling on the Fox River that occurred at that time. So, the class was ‘hired’ to makeinteractive exhibits that demonstrated how an 1870’s flour mill worked.It was a unique opportunity for the class, because they were able to interact with a client,including touring the space, creating prototypes, having the client request design changes, andfinally building the exhibit. Partnering with the students also helped the Historical Societyreceive two local community grants to support the exhibit. At the end of the semester, thedirector of the Historical Society reviewed the student projects and accepted 4 of the 5 projectsfor inclusion in the exhibit
segmented using a conversation analysis coding system thatdistinguishes turns-at-talk between two individuals.33 Conversation Analysis (CA) is aqualitative method derived from ethnomethodology and discourse analysis and established in the1960’s by social scientists Harvey Sacks, Emanuel Schegloff and Gail Jefferson to distinguishsocial interaction during discourse. It allows researchers to describe, analyze and understand talkthrough a series of organizational structure and linguistic notation.33 Specific notation for CAtranscripts were developed by Gail Jefferson to show linguistic emphasis. Additional focusincludes the use of adjacency pairs that delineate conditional relevance (e.g., first turn-at-talk ofadjacency pair makes the later turn

For each case study, we begin by describing thenew sign prototypes and how they fit the concept(s) they attempt to describe. We compare thenew sign to previous options for signing each concept, contextualizing them as examples of thecolonized/assimilated nature of Deaf Education in the United States.
