Congratulations Annelies! This epoch-making, community building achievement means so much to us deaf academics: theguardian.com/education/2023…
Looking forward to adding selections from this book to ANU's corpus linguistics course!
Looking forward to adding selections from this book to ANU's corpus linguistics course!
We recommend all PhDs in pre-writing stage and all MA’s curious about an academic career PhD Deaf. For the writing retreat any academic writing project goes. #drDeaf
There are still places available for the last two #drDeaf workshops of 2022! PhD Deaf workshop and writing retreat will run parallel 11-16 December. There are some joint sessions. Register here: bit.ly/3RUEhaZ before 13 November 📚❄️🔥💻
@AnneliesKusters @mdemeulder @EDSUnion What's next? We'll have a #DrDeaf writing retreat and Phd deaf workshop in Ål 11-16 December! The Phd workshop is for deaf people in Phd programs AND deaf people with MA/BA who are curious about Phd programs.
@AnneliesKusters @mdemeulder @EDSUnion #DrDeaf values are: deaf-centered spaces where deaf academics at all career stages feel welcome, #InternationalSign spaces welcoming to new signers, developing deaf peer networks, and growing deaf Phds
@AnneliesKusters @mdemeulder @EDSUnion #DrDeaf is not an org, grant, or a business, It's 3 #DeafAcademics in an informal network together and with colleagues on ways to grow the number of deaf people in academe. We do this on top of existing work, family, and volunteer commitments because we share some core values
@mdemeulder @drjosephjmurray @EDSUnion Most participants also gave a 10 minute presentation about methods they were interested in, or had used before. Doing and talking methods at #drDeaf was a fun way to not only learn about methods and receive feedback on interview skills, but also to get to know each other better.
@mdemeulder @drjosephjmurray @EDSUnion We practiced interviews, focus groups and language portraits. We analysed the language diaries and field notes that had been created as home work. The last day, we studied how participatory filmmaking can be used for research, by creating short films on “deaf academic space”.
@mdemeulder @drjosephjmurray @EDSUnion The workshop this week focused on qualitative research methods: a new theme and thus a new challenge for us at #drDeaf! This week’s activities involved a mixture of lectures about the use of different qualitative methods, and trying out these methods with other deaf academics.
In 2020, the pandemic forced us to move the writing retreat online. In 2021 @drjosephjmurray facilitated an online writing workshop with @EDSUnion #drDeaf

In 2019 we organized the first #drDeaf writing retreat, that @drjosephjmurray and I facilitated. We’re still seeing publications from that workshop! acadeafic.org/2020/01/30/eig…
In 2018 @drjosephjmurray came up with the idea for #drDeaf. There was a need for more deaf academic spaces for academics at different career stages, also because many of the existing academic spaces were not accessible or only through interpreters. A collaborative thread 🧵
