About this book This book aims to raise awareness of the important role that parents and families can play in the lives of their deaf children and in their communities. It is written for all those who want to know more about parental involvement in support for deaf children, but especially those who are involved in providing services for deaf children and their families. It is not always easy for service-providing organisations to involve family members in their work, or in self-help activities. Often parents feel that they know too little in comparison to professionals, that they are too poor, that the distances to travel are too far or that they have little to contribute. However the inspirational case studies presented here show that it is possible for service providers, families and deaf people to work together to support deaf children. The examples in this book show that families can be one of the most powerful forces for change in the lives of deaf children. They can change the lives of their own children and also work to change the future for many others. Different people - both deaf and not deaf, parents and practitioners - have contributed to the book and we are very grateful for their willingness to take time in contributing to our project. This book represents some of the core values of Deaf Child Worldwide and many important learning points from the work of our partners and friends. We have found producing this book inspiring and we hope that it inspires you, too! Family Friendly! Working with deaf children and their communities worldwide 1 Using this book This book presents the experiences of others through case studies. It uses some principles from Action Learning to encourage readers to think about their own practice and to challenge themselves to act upon what they learn as a result.

How will reading Reflect on the this book affect experiences in your work? the case study in relation to your Act This is up to you! Think own situation What lessons can be learnt from the experiences? How do you respond to the Learn author’s learning? Each stage of the cycle uses these symbols. In each chapter, you will find: Case studies written by practitioners or family members. You can find all the case studies in full on our website – www.deafchildworldwide.info . If you don’t have access to the internet, please write to us and we would be happy to send the Read case studies to you. The case studies come from many countries, in which families have followed a range of different approaches for their children. On the whole, there are fewer case studies written about children with mild or moderate deafness or about those who became deaf later in their childhood. However, as this book is about strategies for 2 Family Friendly! Working with deaf children and their communities worldwide Continued informing and empowering families, we hope that the examples will be relevant to all families with deaf children who have different levels of hearing loss. On page 144, there is an index of all the people who contributed to the book and the page numbers where their contributions can be found. Some of the case studies have been published previously and the full references for those published stories are available after this index. Things to think about… Taking time to reflect on your own practice can be very productive. The case studies may help you to see your own work situation differently. Some people call this “making the familiar unfamiliar”. The questions in these “think” boxes are designed to Think help you to reflect on your own work. They may help you to reflect on what is going well in your project. They may also help you to think creatively about changes that could be made. The questions can be used with individuals, with a team of colleagues, or with larger groups in workshops. Learning from… The book does not propose a set approach to common challenges. Instead, it invites you to learn from the experiences of others and Learn apply that learning to your own situation. There is a summary of some of the learning at the end of each chapter and after some case studies. These are ideas which the authors of the book have picked out. You might find different aspects of the case studies important. Please contribute to the debate – tell us what you think some of the learning points are – we could publish your comments on the website or, perhaps, in future editions of the book. Basic principles for Deaf Child Worldwide On some issues, Deaf Child Worldwide uses these principles to guide its work. These may be useful for practitioners to consider in relation to their own work. These principles are, like everything else, open to critique, different interpretations, additions and amendments. Please let us know what you think. Family Friendly! Working with deaf children and their communities worldwide 3 Using this book Some notes on terminology used Deaf Child Worldwide uses the term “deaf” to refer to all levels of permanent hearing loss. This includes mild, moderate and profound hearing loss. This includes people who use sign languages and spoken languages as their preferred language. It is important to note that children with different levels and types of hearing loss require different support. As this book contains case studies written by people who do not work for Deaf Child Worldwide, you will notice that some authors use Deaf (upper case D) when specifically referring to the group of people who identify themselves as culturally and linguistically members of the Deaf community. Deaf Child Worldwide refers to “parents” as the person or people who take responsibility for caring for a deaf child. Where possible, Deaf Child Worldwide refers to deaf children and their “families” to show that there are a wide variety of people who are involved in the deaf child’s life, for example grandparents, siblings, step-parents, aunts and uncles. 4 Family Friendly!

  • Sign Language Endangerment and Linguistic Diversity Ben Braithwaite
    RESEARCH REPORT Sign language endangerment and linguistic diversity Ben Braithwaite University of the West Indies at St. Augustine It has become increasingly clear that current threats to global linguistic diversity are not re - stricted to the loss of spoken languages. Signed languages are vulnerable to familiar patterns of language shift and the global spread of a few influential languages. But the ecologies of signed languages are also affected by genetics, social attitudes toward deafness, educational and public health policies, and a widespread modality chauvinism that views spoken languages as inherently superior or more desirable. This research report reviews what is known about sign language vi - tality and endangerment globally, and considers the responses from communities, governments, and linguists. It is striking how little attention has been paid to sign language vitality, endangerment, and re - vitalization, even as research on signed languages has occupied an increasingly prominent posi - tion in linguistic theory. It is time for linguists from a broader range of backgrounds to consider the causes, consequences, and appropriate responses to current threats to sign language diversity. In doing so, we must articulate more clearly the value of this diversity to the field of linguistics and the responsibilities the field has toward preserving it.* Keywords : language endangerment, language vitality, language documentation, signed languages 1. Introduction. Concerns about sign language endangerment are not new. Almost immediately after the invention of film, the US National Association of the Deaf began producing films to capture American Sign Language (ASL), motivated by a fear within the deaf community that their language was endangered (Schuchman 2004).

Through an investigation based on naturally occurring NZSL data in a corpus, it was found that nominal plurality can be expressed through: . reduplication . quantifiers . numerals . classifier constructions . pronouns . verbal agreement Combinations of these strategies occur within utterances, and number agreement within the noun phrase is apparent when a noun can be marked for plurality through reduplication. Whether or not a noun is able to be reduplicated seems to depend on the phonological form of the particular noun.

It aims to identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of the IE policy in this context. The study seeks an answer to the question: What are the beliefs, experiences, expectations and practises of key stakeholders of IE? The stakeholders include practising teachers in primary education classrooms, policy- makers in education, parents of children who are physically and intellectually challenged, teacher-trainers, and local community leaders. The study uses a phenomenologically oriented approach to gain insight into participants’ perspectives and experiences about IE and the implementation of this policy in Samoa. It draws upon document analysis, individual interviews, and focus group discussions as methods for data collection. The results indicate a paradox in participants’ beliefs and practices of IE. Participants, particularly the policy implementers (teachers), tend to be inclusive in their thinking and behaviour at home. However, in the classroom, although participants seem to operate from an inclusive mindset, the practice tends to be exclusive and thus grounded in the medical model of disability. Rather than creating inclusive environments, IE appears to have created another type of exclusion.

    Aspects of Language CONTENTS CHAPTER 1 : Definitions CHAPTER 2 : Origin CHAPTER 3 : Grammar CHAPTER 4 : Usage and meaning CHAPTER 5 : Philosophy of language CHAPTER 6 : Mind and language CHAPTER 7 : Programming language CHAPTER 8 : Derivation and definitions CHAPTER 9 : Ambiguity CHAPTER 10 : Linguistics CHAPTER 11 : Modern theories CHAPTER 12 : Sign language CHAPTER 1 Language Language is the human capacity for acquiring and using complex systems of communication, and a language is any specific example of such a system. The scientific study of language is called linguistics. Estimates of the number of languages in the world vary between 6,000 and 7,000. However, any precise estimate depends on a partly arbitrary distinction between languages and dialects. Natural languages are spoken or signed, but any language can be encoded into secondary media using auditory, visual, or tactile stimuli, for example, in graphic writing, braille, or whistling. This is because human language is modality-independent. When used as a general concept, "language" may refer to the cognitive ability to learn and use systems of complex communication, or to describe the set of rules that makes up these systems, or the set of utterances that can be produced from those rules. All languages rely on the process of semiosis to relate signs with particular meanings. Oral and sign languages contain a phonological system that governs how symbols are used to form sequences known as words or morphemes, and a syntactic system that governs how words and morphemes are combined to form phrases and utterances. Human language has the properties of productivity, recursivity, and displacement, and it relies entirely on social convention and learning.

  • Indefiniteness and Specificity Marking in Catalan Sign Language (LSC)
    Indefiniteness and specificity marking in Catalan Sign Language (LSC) Gemma Barberà CNRS/Paris 8 Bringing together the areas of sign language semantics-pragmatics interface and discourse reference, this article offers a description of how indefiniteness and (non-)specificity is encoded in Catalan Sign Language (LSC). By using a combined methodology of corpus data and grammatical tests, the present study shows that the encoding of indefiniteness and specificity in LSC is achieved by three main means, namely lexical signs, the use of nonmanuals, and the use of signing space. The basic primitives required to analyze specificity in LSC comprise wide scope, epistemicity, and partitivity. This article proposes an analysis of the use of signing space in contributing meaning and provides insights into the characterization of the abstract import of signing space. Keywords: Catalan Sign Language (LSC), definiteness, discourse, indefiniteness, pronouns, reference, signing space, specificity 1 Introduction As natural languages, sign languages are endowed with a wide range of referring terms to refer to discourse referents. During a conversation, signers may use indefinite or definite descriptions, proper nouns, or pronominal forms for that purpose. The choice of referring terms depends on the degree of knowledge of the discourse referent that the conversation participants have, as well as the degree of prominence of the discourse referent at a particular point in discourse. The degree of knowledge and prominence comprise the so-called referential status, which represents an absolute property reflected through the formal marking of Noun Phrases (NPs). The referential status is dependent on the introduction and retrieval of the referent at a contextual scale.

  • Samoan Community Profile February 2016
    Samoan Community Profile February 2016 Country Background Official Name Independent State of Samoa Location Samoa is located south of the equator, about halfway between Hawaii and New Zealand in the Polynesian region of the Pacific Ocean. The total land area is 2,842 km² (1,097 sq mi), consisting of the two large islands of Upolu and Savai'i which account for 99% of the total land area, and eight small islets. These are the three islets in the Apolima Strait (Manono Island, Apolima and Nu'ulopa), the four Aleipata Islands off the eastern end of Upolu (Nu'utele, Nu'ulua, Namua, and Fanuatapu), and Nu'usafe'e (less than 0.01 km² – 2½ acres – in area and about 1.4 km (0.9 mi) off the south coast of Upolu at the village of Vaovai). The main island of Upolu is home to nearly three-quarters of Samoa's population, and its capital city is Apia.1 Population As of 1 January 2016, the population of Samoa was estimated to be 193,471 people. This is an increase of 0.60 % (1,156 people) compared to population of 192,315 the year before. In 2015 the natural increase was positive, as the number of births exceeded the number of deaths by 3,300. Due to external migration, the population declined by 2,144. The sex ratio of the total population was 1.068 (1,068 males per 1,000 females) which is higher than global sex ratio. The global sex ratio in the world was approximately 1,016 males to 1,000 females as of 2015.

  • Making Language the Ideological and Interactional Constitution of Language in an Indigenous Aché Community in Eastern Paraguay
    University of California Los Angeles Making Language The Ideological and Interactional Constitution of Language in an Indigenous Aché Community in Eastern Paraguay A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology by Jan David Hauck 2016 © Copyright by Jan David Hauck 2016 Abstract of the Dissertation Making Language The Ideological and Interactional Constitution of Language in an Indigenous Aché Community in Eastern Paraguay by Jan David Hauck Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Paul V. Kroskrity, Chair This dissertation develops a theoretical and empirical framework for the analysis of the ideological and interactional constitution of language. It discusses the process of “making language,” namely, how language emerges as an object of speakers’ attention, the historical processes leading to this type of language consciousness, and the interactional means through which it is achieved and becomes recognizable and analyzable. Integrating work on language ideologies, phenomenology, language so- cialization, practice theory, conversation analysis, and the ethnographic description of ontologies, this work offers insights into the underlying mechanism of how language becomes a meaningful entityin the lifeworld of its speakers. Focusing on the constitution of language opens up new avenues for the investigation into its onto- logical status. Language is here understood as an equivocation that might index potential referential alterity. Individual languages need not always be tokens of the same type and thus arbitrary and trans- latable. Language and languages are specific objects that result from the socialization of speakers into conceiving of and attending to particular communicative practices as languages.
