Inclusion of Deaf/Hard of Hearing Students in the General Education Classroom
Borders, Christy M.; Gardiner-Walsh, Stephanie; Herman, Molly; Turner, Molly
Advances in Special Education
Inclusion of deaf/hard of hearing (D/HH) students is more common than ever before. General education teachers need to be aware of strengths and needs of this particular group of students as well as have a few simple strategies to implement in the classroom. This chapter will present strengths and needs relative to language, social/emotional skills, and literacy. Language modalities, educational philosophies, as well as assistive listening technologies are discussed. We will further present important information on changes in technology and support personnel that may be used to improve the education of D/HH students.
