Education of Deaf Children and the Politics of Recognition.

Ohna, Stein Erik

Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, v8 n1 p5-10 Win 2003

The ideological basis for education of children with deafness has changed during the last few decades. In Norway, the new curriculum is emphasizing bilingual and bicultural ideas. Using an excerpt of an interview with a secondary student, this article discusses problems that arise when heavily emphasizing a cultural approach. (Contains 10 references.) (Author/CR)
