Hello
Deaf community,
Through
the past number of months, there has been a new interest in using Twitter, but
not a clear understanding about its purpose or how to use it to peoples'
benefit.
A
group of Deaf people want to help provide accessible education for Deaf
community members: including parents of Deaf children; CODAs; & ASL
interpreters, about the use of Twitter. If there is enough interest, after the
survey is complete, there are ideas and plans to provide workshop(s) as well as
instructional videos in ASL on how to use Twitter.
The
group has created a survey so they could find out what people:
1)
need to know about Twitter or
2)
what they want to learn about Twitter
Questions
are available in ASL by video inserts with each of the questions. The
last question is not in ASL, but please answer do it. We need to find out
if you want to get information from these organizations or associations.
Here
is the link to the Twitter survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/deaf-canada-twitter-survey
Please
participate in the survey before the deadline: January 30, 2014. Thank
you.
A
side note, two more versions of the survey will be available ASAP - one with a
Deaf-Blind friendly background for Deaf-Blind people to participate in the
questions. The second one is going to be a subtitled one for Hearing & Hard
of hearing people to follow the ASL questions. These take time to edit. One at
a time they will be available. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Feedback
about the survey is welcome, as it is a new experience for this group of Deaf
people. My e-mail contact is: lisandkellett@gmail.com
Much
appreciated,
~
