    Through Deaf Eyes

    Choosing a school is a hard decision for a student and his or her family. It is especially hard when the student is deaf. When choosing a school deaf students have two main options: Attending a local public school alongside hearing students or attending a specialized deaf school surrounded by the deaf community. Education for deaf students has been going on for centuries in the United States. However, education in the deaf world has really evolved and hasn't always been the way it is today. In the 1800s most deaf people were isolated from each other and had limited understanding of what they could do. It wasn't until 1817, when Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet changed the way Americans believed deaf people could be educated. He had opened the first permanent school of deaf children in America. The outcome of this school spread American Sign Language around and many new schools for deaf children opened. In the hearing world Alexander Graham Bell is seen has a hero but in the deaf world according to Brian Greenwald, "he offers and antagonist perspective because he's like the boogie man. And even though he's a great man in his own right, but he did put forth the idea that life without signing, would be a better life." Bell thought that signing was preventing deaf people from learning how to speak. He believed there was new technology now than in the 1800s to teach the deaf community how to speak and lip read. Because of Bells beliefs oral school were opened in the 1860s where they did not teach sign and did not allow it to be used. By the early twentieth century, oral methods dominated deaf education in the United States. It was a big change in the deaf community since oralism was not considered before. Bell’s success in promoting oralism has generated much hostility from the signing deaf community for its impact on their culture that continues today.…

    A language barrier for Deaf individuals deprives those people of human contact. Some deaf children grow up in families that never learn sign language making it difficult for them to communicate basic needs and emotions. Overjoyed with the expectance to college one student said, "I literally cried when I got my acceptance letter from RIT," the 20 year old from Ohio recalls. "I knew that this was the place where I would finally fit in and be accepted for who I am."(“National Technical”). Hearing or deaf the acceptance of going to college would deem this amount of emotion. For a deaf person this is more than just going to college, this is a chance for the individual to be accepted for who they are. This is because most deaf children grow up with a language depravity because out of the 90% of parents that had a deaf child only 10% of them will learn sign language to communicate with their deaf…

    Through my involvements as an undergraduate student in the communication sciences and disorders program, I have grown in my passion for the field of Speech-Language Pathology. These experiences have allowed me to develop qualities that make me an excellent candidate to be a high-achieving graduate student at the University of Northern Iowa. I maintain a major GPA of 3.97 while working, and continuing to follow my passions, volunteering for organizations that help those with communication disorders. I have always had a desire for working with children, and I love being able to be a part of their growth; witnessing their achievements and assisting them in their development. This is why much of my volunteer work has been centered on children; working with organizations such as Up with Families, The Spectrum Project, and the Scottish Rite Preschool for children with communicative disorders.…

    I attended the Open House on November 12, Veteran’s Day at the School for the Deaf in Fremont. This was the first open house I attended at the school. It was a real, thoughtful and enjoyable experience for me. I arrived pretty early, at 9:30am. The school is very large and appears even larger when I got there. There were lots of people walking around and registering for the event. I stopped in to register and get some feedback on what to do first. I was advised to get my free ticket to the variety show that was starting at 10:30am. Once they run out of tickets you miss out on the event. I was familiar with how popular the events are at the school so I did that first.…

    Marschark’s research finds that spoken language can be just as successful for a Deaf student, assuming the child can communicate well with his parents, again, particularly with his mother. Again, if the student has a strong first language, signed or spoken, then he will have a greater chance of success in reading (Redeafined Magazine, 2013). With more than 90 percent of Deaf children being born to hearing parents it is rare that the average Deaf child will obtain a strong language foundation before entering the school system. Per Connie Mayer’s article, “What Really Matters in the Early Literacy Development of Deaf Children,” the first five years of life are most influential towards a child’s abilities in a language and their literacy (Mayer, 2007).…
