Book Participation by hard of hearing students in integration classrooms  Facets of interactional competence

Download or read book Participation by hard of hearing students in integration classrooms Facets of interactional competence written by Simone Girard-Groeber and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A growing number of deaf and hard-of-hearing students attend regular classrooms where they face specific opportunities and challenges concerning their participation. This book focuses on plurilingual (spoken and sign language) adolescents in partial integration, who are supported by a teaching assistant in the spoken language classrooms. How does the presence of an assistant shape the students’ participation and the overall classroom interaction? How do the students design their engagement in classroom activities and how do they negotiate their hearing and understanding, which are particularly at risk for them? Managing these tasks calls for the participants’ interactional competence, which is observed on the basis of their multimodal practices including verbal and non-verbal resources.

Book New Materialist Explorations into Language Education

Download or read book New Materialist Explorations into Language Education written by Johanna Ennser-Kananen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book analyzes language education through a socio-material framework. The authors revisit their position as researchers by decentering themselves and humans in general from the main focus of research activities and giving way to the materialities that are agentive but often overlooked parts of our research contexts and processes. Through this critical posthumanist realism, they are able to engage in research that sees society as an ethical interrelationship between humans and the material world and explore the socio-materialities of language education from the perspectives of material agency, spatial and embodied materiality, and human and non-human assemblages. Each chapter explores language educational contexts through a unique lens of (socio)materiality. Based on how the authors conceptualize (socio)materiality, the book is organized in three sections that seek answers to the following overarching questions: In what ways do material agencies emerge in language educational contexts? How are educational choices and experiences intertwined with materialities of spaces and bodies? What assemblages of human and non-human may occur in language education contexts? Each chapter questions, in its own way, the notion of the human subject as rational, enlightened being and sole possessor of agency, and offers examples of allowing for other-than-human agency to enter the picture. Together, the contributors exemplify how researchers who have been committed to social constructionist thinking for most of their careers learn to make space for new theories, thus inspiring and encouraging readers to remain open for new intellectual and embodied endeavors.

Book Captioning for Children

Download or read book Captioning for Children written by Nathalie Mälzer and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2022-11-10 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume gathers empirical and historical perspectives on closed captioning on German television for children who are d/Deaf or hard of hearing. It is partly based on a two-year study, SDH4KIDS, in which the following research question was addressed: Which subtitle-specific aspects have a positive impact on comprehensibility and acceptability of subtitled TV-programmes for d/Deaf and hard of hearing children aged between 8 and 12? The quantitative study with over 200 participants was accompanied by a qualitative study gathering eye-tracking data on subtitle reading behaviour with a smaller group of participants of the same age. Both studies are presented and discussed in detail. The results were furthermore used to develop guidelines for professional subtitling practice. In addition, this book provides a historical overview of subtitling practice for people who are d/Deaf or hard of hearing in the Federal Republic and the former German Democratic Republic of Germany. For this, previously unpublished material from the German Federal Archives has been examined.

Book Deaf Education and Challenges for Bilingual Multilingual Students

Download or read book Deaf Education and Challenges for Bilingual Multilingual Students written by Musyoka, Millicent Malinda and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biliteracy, or the development of reading, writing, speaking, listening, and thinking competencies in more than one language, is a complex and dynamic process. The process is even more challenging when the languages used in the literacy process differ in modality. Biliteracy development among deaf students involves the use of visual languages (i.e., sign languages) and auditory languages (spoken languages). Deaf students' sign language proficiency is strongly related to their literacy abilities. The distinction between bilingualism and multilingualism is critical to our understanding of the underserved, the linguistic deficit, and the underachievement of deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) immigrant students, thus bringing the multilingual and immigrant aspect into the research on deaf education. Multilingual and immigrant students may face unique challenges in the course of their education. Hence, in the education of D/HH students, the intersection of issues such as biculturalism/multiculturalism, bilingualism/multilingualism, and immigration can create a dilemma for teachers and other stakeholders working with them. Deaf Education and Challenges for Bilingual/Multilingual Students is an essential reference book that provides knowledge, skills, and dispositions for teaching multicultural, multilingual, and immigrant deaf and hard of hearing students globally and identifies the challenges facing the inclusion needs of this population. This book fills a current gap in educational resources for teaching immigrant, multilingual, and multicultural deaf students in learning institutions all over the world. Covering topics such as universal design for learning, inclusion, literacy, and language acquisition, this text is crucial for classroom teachers of deaf or hard of hearing students, faculty in deaf education programs, language instructors, students, pre-service teachers, researchers, and academicians.

Book Welcoming Students who are Deaf blind Into Typical Classrooms

Download or read book Welcoming Students who are Deaf blind Into Typical Classrooms written by Norris G. Haring and published by Brookes Publishing Company. This book was released on 1995 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an increasing number of students who are deaf-blind join their peers in typical classrooms, educators need guidance to create supportive environments that maximize students' potential for learning and personal growth. This timely book discusses in depth the rationale for including students who are deaf-blind in typical classrooms and explores the issues that surround such important areas as behavior, mobility, communication, and transition to adult life. In addition to offering sound advice on how to physically adapt a classroom, move from one activity to another with minimal distractions, accommodate unique behavioral and medical needs, and more, this practical text also answers important questions. Equally valuable for professionals who are including students in regular classrooms as well as for those still investigating the facts, this perceptive book gives readers an overview of the issues to consider in actively supporting the inclusion of students who are deaf-blind.
