#DeafPedagogy Friday:
Deaf students are extraordinarily knowledgeable. One of the most important jobs for deaf educators is to 'hold up a mirror' so that the students appreciate their own self worth and come to acknowledge that they, themselves, are legitimate, worthy knowers.
Parents, using technology as a “free babysitting service” is, in fact, not free at all. The latest research says we pay with our kids’ development, speech delays, with their attention, and with their mental health. Not having limits IS neglectful parenting. #KidsAreAddicted
Or the scene with the headphones in the basements, it would have been incredible to have a subtitle explaining that *music plays* so they at least know the context of the scene, otherwise everything is silent when that isn’t the case @johnkrasinski#aquietplace
I LOVE “A Quiet Place” but watching with my Deaf parents brought it to my attention that the movie is not well subtitled for Deaf people. They don’t know when the loud sounds are happening or why there is panic 🙁 @johnkrasinski
Here we go again! My kids wanted to see a movie on the big screen, we gave in. Only 1 captioning device available. My husband, daughter, and I ended up sharing. The last 30 minutes, captions went missing. #accessibilityforall#opencaptionsnow#fail
Today was officially my last day as a Knight at Richwoods. I have learned so much and have loved all my students, my fabulous CT and the great experience I have gained. Thank you!!!! 🤟🏼📝 #StandardofExcellence#rhs#PHEARCE
