Over the years high school Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D/HH) teachers provided students with many differentiated assessments. One of them was writing a book in English class. During writing they had an option to use any technology or paper and pencil.

In the book Hands of My Father by Myron Uhlberg, I learned about a hearing child’s life being raised by two Deaf parents. I gained insight on hearing children with Deaf parents, how Deaf parents depend on their hearing children, frustrations associated with being a hearing child of Deaf parents, personal difficulties Myron encountered while interpreting for his parents, etc. Hearing children with Deaf parents often had the roles reversed, Deaf parents relied on hearing children to translate and explain things to them.

This led to a teaching method being created in 1970 that did not favor sign language or oralism and every child was considered equal and able to get the education that they needed.

The method used in education that started in the early 1970s was known as Total Communication. In an article called The History of Communication, written on start ASL’s website, stated that Total Communication gives the opportunity to deaf students in numerous ways such as ASL, fingerspelling, lip reading, pictures, use of computers, writing, gestures, reading, expression and the use of hearing aids that some schools had to provide.

CHAPTER 2 2. REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Introduction The inclusion of students who are deaf refers to their being educated within a classroom of students with normal hearing. This concept of inclusion differs from mainstreaming in that the latter may refer to a variety of degrees of contact with hearing students, while in inclusion a deaf student is placed in a classroom with hearing students.
