Abstract:
How are students of applied linguistics able to contribute to community efforts in increasing access to justice? Activist applied linguistics (AAL) (Cowal & Leung, 2021) is defined as utilizing applied linguistics in coordination with community partners to address wicked problems (Rittel & Webber, 1973). AAL provides a framework for engaging university students with communities outside of their campus and has been utilized to further work in water justice (Haeffner & Cowal, 2019) and to increase the Oregon State Bar website’s comprehensibility (Anesa, Cowal, & Pulju, 2022). In this poster, we present an AAL case study in which students of applied linguistics partner with the Oregon Judicial Department (OJD) for the purpose of increasing access to justice for Oregonians trying to navigate the Informal Domestic Relations Trial system. In conversation with OJD staff and building off of their OJD website, we employ multi-modal semiotic theory (Kress & van Leeuwen in Jovanovic, 2015), universal design (CAST, 2018) and plain language (Kimble, 2007) to create informational visuals that are more accessible to the public. Our poster gives examples of “befores” and “afters” of materials about Informal Domestic Relations Trials. We also present feedback from OJD and discuss the take-aways from this experience and provide suggestions for further research. Anesa, P., Cowal J., & Pulju, K.
