After all of the wonderful courses that I have taken here in the NLGL program, I am incredibly excited for future courses ending my journey here at NCSU. I do not yet have any finished products relevant to these courses, but have already developed my own personal objectives in my intentions for taking these classes. Please learn what personal goals I hope to achieve in my remaining classes below.

Compelling Question: What are ways to support deaf and hard of hearing students in developing their literacy and language?
Answer: Through Teaching Children's Literature (ECI 537), I intend to bestow a passion for reading to my students by introducing them to new and inviting books to read. This passion and excitement for reading will transfer into their language and literacy development being that a child who loves to read will reap the benefits again and again. In addition I intend to challenge myself in Teacher as Researcher (ECI 523) in becoming a teacher who discovers and critically analyzes information. This information that I learn to view with a critical eye will help me to learn more about language and literacy development for deaf and hard of hearing students and create my own research clarifying my own pedagogy.
