    Engaging ASL-English Interpreting Undergraduates in Research: A Model for Student Engagement and Faculty Productivity

    No full text
    Engaging undergraduate ASL-English interpreting students in research yields multiple benefits beyond enhancing faculty scholarly productivity. In this innovative practices article, we first summarize scholarly literature showing that including undergraduates in research experiences supports development of career-readiness skills while simultaneously building the pipeline of future faculty. We then discuss the benefits of undergraduate research experiences and argue that research activities can be integrated throughout an interpreter education program curriculum. Using a detailed description of a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) and course-embedded project examples, we demonstrate how structured research experiences can be integrated into programs without creating additional burden for faculty or students. We provide practical implementation strategies that address common challenges while highlighting how research engagement strengthens connections to theory, professional practice, and the communities we serve

    Fragmented Foundations: Interpreter Educator Resources and Uneven Student Preparation

    No full text
    The readiness-to-work gap among graduates of signed language interpreting programs has been widely acknowledged for decades. Efforts to address the gap have primarily focused on training methods and student performance. This paper shifts the focus to interpreter educators, examining whether the inconsistencies in their awareness and use of discipline-related books may contribute to the disparate educational outcomes of students entering the workforce. Drawing on survey data from 75 interpreter educators in the United States, this study explores demographic patterns of their book awareness and usage in teaching. Results indicate that awareness and utilization of discipline-related books to support teaching are generally limited, with notable differences across demographic groups. Educators with higher degrees, more teaching experience, employment in accredited programs, and the ability to hear report greater familiarity and engagement with books to aid their teaching. Furthermore, most institutions lack protocols for selecting coursebooks, and educators often choose their own materials, leading to inconsistencies in the foundational information presented to students. These inconsistencies may be contributing factors to the ongoing gap in workforce readiness. By investigating a specific aspect of teaching resources, discipline-related books, this study highlights a critical yet underexamined factor in interpreter education and calls for attention to the field\u27s teaching infrastructure

    Episode 27 Higher Level Research Skills Description  Welcome back to Instruction Request, the podcast from the Thomas G. Carpenter Library at the University of North Florida (UNF)! In Episode 27, hosts Lauren Odom (Instruction Librarian) and Beryl White-Bing (Virtual Learning Librarian) do something a little different: we sit down with our colleague Sarah Moukhliss, STEM Online Learning Librarian, for a practical conversation about higher-level research skills and strategies—especially for students tackling complex health-related research questions. Before we jump into the interview, Beryl shares a quick update on the VR Club at UNF (now around 70+ members!) and exciting momentum in the Virtual Learning Center (VLC). With student leadership transitions underway, we also celebrate the possible future of a female-led VR Club and share how students (and even faculty!) can get involved. The club meets on alternating weeks to support busy schedules: Thursdays, 3:30–5:30 PM Mondays, 2:30–4:30 PM In this episode, Sarah Margolis shares: What makes advanced research consultations rewarding—and what can be challenging when students hit “brick walls” Why pre-planning is a must for complex research (and how to make it manageable) How to approach PICO questions (Patient/Problem, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) in nursing and health program Strategies for building keyword “buckets,” identifying subject headings (including MeSH terms in PubMed), and staying organized Tips for graduate students working on scoping reviews and systematic reviews, including the value of using established frameworks such as: PRISMA Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) (and other review frameworks students may use in health fields) Tools & resources discussed: Citation management tools (like RefWorks and other options students may prefer) Review workflows and tools that help manage duplicates and screening (Sarah shares an example of a tool a student used during a scoping review process) Worksheets, handouts, task cards, and librarian-created learning materials that support student success Library guides, tutorial videos, and “types/levels of evidence” support for health research Need research help after listening? If you’re working on a PICO question, literature review, scoping review, or a graduate research project and feel stuck, you’re not alone, and the library can help. Contact the library instruction team: [email protected] You can also schedule a research consultation or submit an instruction request through the library. Thanks for listening to another episode of Instruction Request—and stay tuned for our next episode, where we’ll be talking more about nursing research support!https://digitalcommons.unf.edu/instructionpodcast/1026/thumbnail.jp
