The lack of educational tools for/in Sign Language (SL) is one of the most challenging issues faced by the Deaf communities in Brazil – it causes language barriers (e.g. prejudice, late acquisition, lack of standards etc.). This deficit is detrimental to the development of the Deaf culture (a social movement that regards deafness as a difference in Human experience). 90% of Deaf children are bo...

Children were asked how they would respond, how the responsible peer would react, and what would happen to their relationship. De...

We compared normally hearing individuals and congenitally deaf individuals as they monitored moving stimuli either in the periphery or in the center of the visual field.

With much earlier identification of hearing loss come expectations that increasing numbers of deaf children will develop literacy abilities comparable to their hearing age peers. To date, despite claims in the literature for parallel development between hearing and deaf learners with respect to early literacy learning, it remains the case that many deaf children do not go on to develop age-appr...
