SUMMARY:Analysis of Deaf Students’ Experiences in Sign Language Interpreter-mediated Classroom in Public Universities in Ghana.
DESCRIPTION:UNCG’s Global Engagement Office (GEO) presents The Global Commons Lunch & Learn Series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApril 15\, 2026 • 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM\n\n\n\nOnline event\n\n\n\n\n\nDetails\n \n**This is a hybrid event. If attending in-person\, please register and join us in Foust 206. (Please note the Foust Building does not have an elevator.) If attending virtually\, please register and the session link will be emailed to you soon.  \nThis week’s topic:     Analysis of Deaf Students’ Experiences in Sign Language Interpreter-mediated Classroom in Public                                    Universities in Ghana. \nPresenter:                  Dr. Felix Kwame Kumedzro\, Principal\, Akatsi College of Education\, Ghana  \nTarget Audience:      Campus-wide     \nBring your lunch and join us in-person or virtually! This qualitative study\, guided by three research questions\, explored the experiences of Deaf students in sign language interpreter-mediated classrooms at three Ghanaian public universities. Using an interpretative phenomenological design\, the study employed a two-stage sampling approach\, combining purposive and convenience sampling to recruit participants. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews\, and results were presented based on experiential themes that emerged from the interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). Findings revealed that Deaf students faced significant challenges such as inconsistent interpreter availability\, lecturers’ polarised teaching methods\, and occasional mockery. Positive experiences were reported when lecturers employed inclusive strategies and interpreters attended lectures regularly. Furthermore\, hearing students provided peer support through sign language interpreting assistance and assignment reviews\, motivated by mutual benefits that reflect the Ubuntu ethos of collective humanity. It is therefore recommended that lecturers continually and intentionally adopt Deaf-friendly teaching strategies to ensure Deaf students are not marginalized in the classroom\, and universities should employ more sign language interpreters. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n RSVP link – https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/22f320ef-8634-461f-8a71-7d98d28b98dc@73e15cf5-5dbb-46af-a862-753916269d73 Learn more at http://uncg.presence.io/event/analysis-of-deaf-students-experiences-in-sign-language-interpreter-mediated-classroom-in-public-universities-in-ghana

SUMMARY:English as a Lingua Franca: Using English to Promote Prosocial Intentions Among Bilingual Consumers
DESCRIPTION:UNCG’s Global Engagement Office (GEO) presents The Global Commons Lunch & Learn Series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApril 01\, 2026 • 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM\n\n\n\nOnline event\n\n\n\n\n\nDetails\n \n**This is a hybrid event. If attending in-person\, please register and join us in Foust 206. (Please note the Foust Building does not have an elevator.) If attending virtually\, please register and the session link will be emailed to you soon.  \nThis week’s topic:     English as a Lingua Franca: Using English to Promote Prosocial Intentions among Bilingual                                                Consumers \nPresenter:                  Dr. Jessie Rui Du\, Assistant Professor of Marketing\, Department of Marketing\, Entrepreneurship\,                                        and Hospitality and Tourism  \nTarget Audience:      Campus and Community     \nBring your lunch and join us in-person or virtually! Nonprofits often create donation appeals in multiple languages to engage diverse audiences worldwide. While native languages are typically seen as more persuasive\, we propose that using English can\, in some cases\, increase prosocial behavior—a phenomenon we term the English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) Effect. Across six studies\, we demonstrate that donation requests in English (vs. the native language) make bilingual consumers feel more connected to and sympathetic toward beneficiaries\, which in turn increases donation. The ELF effect is particularly salient when the beneficiary is an outgroup member. This research offers practical guidance for marketers and nonprofits on how to use language strategically in multilingual donation appeals to increase support from diverse audiences. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n RSVP link – https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/dc543cff-df67-449b-8d1d-f05ef6b0dc42@73e15cf5-5dbb-46af-a862-753916269d73 Learn more at http://uncg.presence.io/event/english-as-a-lingua-franca-using-english-to-promote-prosocial-intentions-among-bilingual-consumers
