  • Title: A survey of the appropriateness of instructional language materials used with deaf students.
    Author: Wathum-Ocama JC.
    Journal: Am Ann Deaf; 1992 Dec; 137(5):420-4. PubMed ID: 1492647.
    Abstract:
    A questionnaire survey was conducted of the instructional language materials used by educators in programs for deaf and hard of hearing students. The results indicated that over half (51%) of the materials used are not developed specifically for use with deaf students. The majority of the respondents (67%) cited problems finding age- and interest-appropriate materials. Dissatisfaction with current language materials was one reason many educators (60%) made their own materials. Their comments emphasized the need to develop language materials and assessment tools specifically for deaf and hard of hearing students.
