Chapter 5: Educational Institutions and Multiculturalism
Deaf Education with Hearing Students:
Mainstream: In a public school, a child is either totally included or in a separate classroom, commonly with an interpreter.
Inclusion: Deaf children are placed in a classroom with hearing students.
Coenrollment: Instead of a Deaf child being integrated in a hearing class, hearing children are integrated into a Deaf class
Deaf Education with Deaf Children:
Oral School: Get Deaf children ready for mainstream schooling once they are done 8th grade
Day School: Children are educated in separate classrooms in public schools
Center School: Provide a critical mass of Deaf adult role models for language and cultural modeling.
Homeschool: Homeschooling allows for a learning style to be determined by the parent
Teaching Methods
English Coded Signing: Signing is done using English grammar
Contact Signing: Part of a blended approach to teaching; English order may be used to help non-fluent signers.
Simultaneous Communication: Words are spoken and signed at the same time, usually one language suffers.
Cued Speech: Handshapes are used around the mouth to help with understanding spoken word, but oral skills are still the focus.
Spoken vs. Signed
As a compromise to the oral-manual controversy, E. M. Gallaudet developed “the combined approach” that used both spoken language and signing
In 1880, members of the International Deaf Education conference decided to ban the use of sign language in schools.
As time went on, signing was allowed in schools, primarily with older students only.
Within deaf schools, young Deaf children were segregated into manual and oral classrooms.
