Hi Ozcan
I suggest you may find it useful to join the Mailbase
discussion forum "deaflink." It has been established:
"to put deaf undergraduates and their support
staff/researchers in touch with each other so that
attitudes can be observed/surveyed. All stages of their
experience from induction, through lectures, tutorials and
exams will be monitored to assist the development of
support systems in HE.
Join this in the same way as you did for dis-forum, (but
subsitute deaflink). Join deaflink first name last name,
etc.
