This research aims to improve literacy for deaf people by developing a practical writing system for sign languages. Because most sign languages lack a standard written form, deaf learners often struggle with written English. The project creates readable sign-language texts and tests whether they can support literacy in deaf communities worldwide.

This study investigates whether morphological awareness—the ability to understand word structure—can improve literacy in both English and Chinese among bilingual children. Through an eight-week training program, Chinese-English bilingual children learn word-building patterns. The research explores whether morphological awareness can serve as a bridge connecting literacy development across both languages.

This research explores how generative AI can create personalized reading materials based on autistic children’s special interests. Using AI-generated stories tailored to individual passions, the study examines effects on engagement and story retelling, suggesting that personalized, strength-based educational tools may improve reading experiences and accessibility for neurodivergent learners.
