  • Guidelines for the Assessment of Deaf and Hard-Of-Hearing Children In
    Guidelines for the Assessment and Educational Evaluation of Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Children in Indiana Based on 511 IAC Article 7, 2008 Effective Date: August 13, 2008 Revised Date: August 31, 2010 Updated Date: November 15, 2013 [1] This document is dedicated to all deaf and hard-of- hearing children in Indiana and their families. Since 1843, deaf and hard-of-hearing children have been educated in this state and many leave our schools, go out into the world, and become productive citizens. Some children in the past have not been so fortunate and may not have left the educational system with the knowledge and tools to maximize their potential. This guide was developed to help educators use assessment information and evaluations to assist parents and the case conference committees in determining how a child can reach their full potential. Advances in technology, as well as greater knowledge of how the brain functions and how language is acquired, have helped the professionals who work with this population provide information that will lead to informed decision making. This guide was made possible by the teamwork and collaboration of audiologists, psychologists, speech pathologists, language specialists, social workers, and parents. Special gratitude is extended to Linda Charlebois and Terri Waddell-Motter who took the lead in assembling this information. We also thank additional contributors, including (and not limited to) Carolyn Pimentel, Lorinda Bartlett, Pam Burchett, Debra Liebrich, Louise Fitzpatrick, Sheryl Whiteman, Carol Wild, Shannon Stafford, Jackie Katter, Janet Fuller, and Joyce Conner. Guidelines for the Assessment and Educational Evaluation of Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Children in Indiana, based on the Article 7 changes of 2008, was developed by Outreach Services for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Children.

  • Early Intervention: Communication and Language Services for Families of Deaf and Hard-Of-Hearing Children
    EARLY INTERVENTION: COMMUNICATION AND LANGUAGE SERVICES FOR FAMILIES OF DEAF AND HARD-OF-HEARING CHILDREN Our child has a hearing loss. What happens next? What is early intervention? What can we do to help our child learn to communicate with us? We have so many questions! You have just learned that your child has a hearing loss. You have many questions and you are not alone. Other parents of children with hearing loss have the same types of questions. All your questions are important. For many parents, there are new things to learn, questions to ask, and feelings to understand. It can be very confusing and stressful for many families. Many services and programs will be available to you soon after your child’s hearing loss is found. When a child’s hearing loss is identified soon after birth, families and professionals can make sure the child gets intervention services at an early age. Here, the term intervention services include any program, service, help, or information given to families whose children have a hearing loss. Such intervention services will help children with hearing loss develop communication and language skills. There are many types of intervention services to consider. We will talk about early intervention and about communication and language. Some of the services provided to children with hearing loss and their families focus on these topics. This booklet can answer many of your questions about the early intervention services and choices in communication and languages available for you and your child. Understanding Hearing Loss Timing: The age when a hearing loss has occurred is known as “age of onset.” You also might come across the terms prelingual and postlingual.

  • Auditory-Verbal
    *Communication Building Blocks A review of choices in communication A smile, a cry, a gesture, or a look – all can communicate thoughts or ideas. It can take many repetitions of a gesture, look, word, phrase, or sound before a child begins to “break the code” between communication attempts and real meaning. Communication surrounding the child in his or her natural environment is the basis for a child’s language development. Two-way communication, responding to your child and encouraging your child to respond to you, is the key to your child’s language development. When a child has a hearing loss, one avenue of communication input is impaired. With a mild hearing loss or hearing loss in just one ear, a child will not hear as well as normal when a person is speaking from another room or in a noisy car. Incidental conversations and snippets of language will not be overheard. The fullness of language and social skills may be affected even though the child appears to “hear”. Hearing aids can help, but not solve all of the child’s difficulties perceiving soft or distant speech. Children with greater degrees of hearing loss will have greater hearing limitations that require more intensive attention if they are to progress in learning language, either through visual or auditory means. No matter what the degree of a child’s hearing loss, parents need to decide how to adapt their normal communication style to meet the needs of their baby with hearing impairment. There are different ways to communicate and different philosophies about communication.

  • February 26, 2021 President, Search Committee New College of Florida
    February 26, 2021 President, Search Committee New College of Florida Via Electronic Mail Dear Members of the Search Committee: As I read your engaging presidential prospectus, I was drawn to New College of Florida’s distinctive liberal arts model. The opportunity to expand on the college’s influence and build on this unique model that is “open-minded, minimally prescriptive, customized, and evolutionary” invigorates me. Each time I read it I feel myself gaining energy and purpose. I enthusiastically submit my “curriculum vitae,” ​ highlighting a cutting edge integration of applied liberal arts, the intersection of career development and ​ education, an inclusive and welcoming community that builds trust, enhanced organizational effectiveness, and successful financial leadership with partnerships and fundraising. My qualifications and experiences prepare me particularly well to help build an increasingly visible role for New College of Florida that draws interest and enrollment from new pools of students throughout the state, region, nation and world. ​ When I first enrolled at Trinity College in Hartford, CT, as an undergraduate, I encountered faculty who were ready and eager to mentor and guide me. One example is Dori Katz, my faculty advisor, who did not tell me that majoring in French would be impossible because I am deaf. She said, "I will help you." But I soon learned that she didn't know how. So I began to teach her about my world, as she taught me about hers. Without the discussion we sustained and the careful attention she gave me over four years, I may ​ never have become the educated, ethical and engaged citizen that I am today.

  • Teacher Resistance to Oralism in the 1970S: a Case Study of a School for the Deaf
    Teacher Resistance to Oralism in the 1970s: A Case Study of a School for the Deaf Submitted by Mark Le Roy Fullwood to the University of Exeter As a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In September 2018 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract The central aim of this research was to investigate teacher resistance in a deaf school, in the South West of England, as they responded to contradictions in their careers during the oral method of deaf education. The most notable contradiction was that the oral methods failed a sizeable portion of deaf students who had no recourse to other methods. Other contradictions revolved around differences between the interpretation of deaf lives from a cultural or medical viewpoint and tensions between the influences of normalisation and the growing acceptance of diversity. Giddens’ (1984) ontological project of structuration is used as a sensitising lens for the study because of its focus on both structures, rules and resources for social actions, and individual agency blended in a recursive relationship. A bricolage of interviews and historical documents are used to create a history of the school outlining the dominant structures in deaf education and the development of the oral method through time, ultimately to the late 1970s when, in this case study, the oral method was augmented with Cued Speech and Sign Supported English.

  • How Cued Speech Was Developed
    How Cued Speech was developed Dr R. Orin Cornett (1913 – 2002) was an American physicist and mathematician, born in Oklahoma. He taught in various universities including Harvard and held a Director post within the U.S. Office of Education. In 1965 he became Vice President at Gallaudet College (now university) the leading university for deaf and hard of hearing students and in his first year there he devised a phonemic system to render English visually rather than acoustically. Dr Cornett named his system Cued Speech, which now has been adapted for over 60 languages and dialects around the world. He completed development of the system in 1966 and by 1967 the first family were using it very successfully with their deaf child. The following is taken from The Cued Speech Resource Book – For parents of Deaf Children. Authors R. Orin Cornett, Ph.D. & Mary Elsie Daisey, M.Ed. ISBN 0-9633164-0-0 ‘A hearing-impaired child’s first problem, of course, is communication. Signing methods can solve this problem, but not the other major problems that are also typical: limited ability to read, very low ability to speech read, and limited ability to use speech for expressive communication. ‘The ultimate purpose of Cued Speech, and the reason it was developed in the first place, is to enable hearing-impaired children to become good readers. Reading is the only way of learning, for deaf children, that is under their complete control. Through it they can learn anything they want to learn, if they can read. ‘The hearing-impaired child’s lack of a clear, internalized model of the spoken language, primarily responsible for his/her difficulties in reading, is also responsible for typically very poor ability to speech- read, often inferior to that of even an untrained hearing person.
