Scholarship
In the last five years, on top of her year-round, three semester (fall, spring and summer) teaching and coordinating duties, Raychelle was able to publish one book (her dissertation), two book chapters, three book reviews, two academic journal publications, two in-progress encyclopedia submissions, and a newspaper article in a psychology magazine. She was also able to review five different journal article and book chapter submissions.
Raychelle has been invited to present at over 40 different venues internationally (colleges, deaf schools, universities and organizations). She was also asked to endnote a national conference, but declined because she felt the honor should go to a person of color, traditionally underrepresented at this particular conference venue. Raychelle has presented at numerous conferences, including American Sign Language Teachers’ Association, International Congress on the Education of the Deaf, Association for College Educators of Deaf and Hard of Hearing, American Evaluation Association, National ASL and English Bilingual Early Childhood Education Summit, Gallaudet University Regional Interpreter Education Center, ASL Roundtable, Revolutions in Sign Language Studies, Visual Language and Visual Learning Lecture Series, and Conference for Community and School Awareness for Deaf, Hard of Hearing and DeafBlind.
In addition, she is a versatile scholar, who is able to present on assessment, curricular design, early childhood language acquisition, language teaching methodology, specialized discourses (such as Academic ASL) and advocacy for sign language peoples.
