Summary Of Carol Garretson's 'Through Deaf Eyes'

667 Words | 3 Pages

Even with cochlear implants, I often times unconsciously rely heavily on lip reading when talking to a person. Throughout middle school and high school, I found myself explaining over and over about lip reading and how I depend on it to help me. I wasn't sure if the teachers or students understood but I was proven wrong when I went on my Schlitterbahn senior trip. Because of the water, I could not wear my implants and this meant I would have to depend heavily on lip reading.

Cochlear Implants In The Film Sound And Fury

644 Words | 3 Pages

On October 25th in the year 2000, a film was release that tackled the difficult topic, that at the time, broke family ties and rattled an entire culture from a single procedure. In Josh Aronson’s film, “Sound and Fury”, the topic of cochlear implants was fought about between an extended family, who both had Deaf children. The families thought very differently about the cochlear implant procedure and this lead to many arguments and even splitting of the families for some time. The cochlear implant procedure threatens Deaf culture and was considered very offensive to the Deaf community. Throughout the documentary, these topics were debated back and forth, about whether the benefits outweighed the risks.

Cochlear Implant Opinion Summary

1426 Words | 6 Pages

According to the “Cochlear Implants: Realistic outcomes” Power Point, people really can and do benefit form cochlear implants. They are not these ominous evil devices, however we also learned that there are risks, especially when you choose to just go with the cochlear implant and the “oral only” approach. In the Power Point titled “Bridging the Gap” we learned that if parents choose to implant their child and pick “oral only” communication they risk hindering their child in the future if they decide that they want to learn sign language and become a part of the Deaf culture. This is why I really think exposing your child to Deaf culture is important, it all comes down to what the deaf child wants and giving them the option of having a cochlear implant and participating in the Deaf world.

Comprehensive Auditory Essay

Over 300,000 people around the world have received cochlear implants (NIDCD, 2014). Research showing the importance of early intervention for children with hearing loss has led to children receiving the implants (CIs) earlier and earlier. However, by the time children are approved for the implant, have the surgery, and have the implant programmed, they can lose up to two years of hearing experience. This lost time puts children behind their normal-hearing peers in speech, language, and social development. After so much lost time, children need extra support to catch up to their hearing peers.

Deaf Culture Essay

794 Words | 4 Pages

The medical view challenges fundamental cultural values of the Deaf culture by undermining the importance of establishing a Deaf identity. Since its priority is to cure “Deafness” using medical interventions, young Deaf infants often do not often have a say in the auditory recovery treatments that will ultimately define their ways of life. Doctors and scientists alike are trained to think of ways to return the body to its most natural, fully equipped state and the inability to process auditory information is alarming because it deviates from their definition of a normal, healthy human being. Although the intentions of those in the medical field are not necessary maleficent, but the way in which they explain options to parents with a Deaf child

Nativist Theory Of Language Acquisition

1333 Words | 6 Pages

The questionable and ambiguous nature surrounding the notion that children play an active role in acquiring language has been debated by many theorists of different perspectives. These three perspectives include the learning view, the nativist view and the interactionist view. In this essay I will discuss each perspective with reference to psychological theories and research that relates to each view. The learning perspective of language acquisition suggests that children acquire language through imitation and reinforcement (Skinner, 1957). The ideology behind this view claims that children develop language by repeating utterances that have been praised by their parent, therefore gaining a larger vocabulary and understanding of phrases over
