| Abstract: | While faculty impact on students' utilization of social and navigational resources is generally well documented, research on this experience for disabled students is limited. The purpose of this research study is to explore faculty priorities and understanding of service provision for deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) students to address the discrepancies revealed through review of the literature, as well as the uncertainty gap revealed among faculty in a preliminary study when it comes to their role in this process. A qualitative study was conducted to gather the perspectives of 18 faculty members at a postsecondary institution. A scenario-based approach was used in which faculty read about a situation and expressed their thoughts and action steps based on guiding questions. Three overarching themes emerged: faculty willingness, building a student-faculty partnership, and request for institutional support. Findings indicate faculty are willing to accommodate and support DHH college students but are looking for institutions to lead the way. These results offer implications and points of consideration for faculty and their institutions in ensuring positive postsecondary outcomes for DHH students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
