| 2025-Present | Stakeholders Perceptions of Good Deaf Education Leadership Survey and focus groups of stakeholders to define what “good” leadership looks like in Deaf Education. This baseline study will provide the foundation for future research and development of training, support, and assessment of Deaf Educational leadership. | Russell West & Nathan Harrison (RIT) |
| 2024-Present | Deaf School Leadership: What We Know and What We Don’t Comprehensive literature review of research into Deaf educational leadership to understand what the field knows and doesn’t from the research. This is also aligned with work with CEASD members to develop a research agenda for Deaf educational leadership. | Nathan Harrison & Russell West (RIT) |
| 2024 | Picture-Based One-Sign Vocabulary Test Development of an ASL-driven one-word picture vocabulary test to use as part of the assessment of a student’s language. Frustrated by the non-ASL nature and subjectivity of the non-Deaf-normed EOWPVT, PPVT, PVT, etc., assessments, began development of an Deaf picture vocabulary test that was based on ASL signs and word lists deemed most frequent and vital to reading skill. | Utah School for the Deaf |
