@M_Brunell @kerrym790 i meant that supports could be adapted from aural/oral to visual--pairing signs with pictures could be a start #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@kerrym790 ELL meets ASL? could the same approach be used? #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

A5 I think in communities with awareness like in MD as we saw in S&F, but in BOS or elsewhere there aren't community supports #6119lu

@MrOBrienWPS would cochlear implants close door to deaf culture? parents may want to keep that door open and opp there #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@sfalvey09 true, i don't know if I think there is a universal right or wrong in this debate A4 #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@sfalvey09 i wonder how a child raised with implant in deaf family learns deaf culture or if they would feel truly a part of it #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@ProfKeefe true enough! #6119lu

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@ProfKeefe and utterances can be interpreted for student as meaningful language that is individual to stdnt and functional #6119LU 2/2

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@ProfKeefe the synth voice, argument could be made that it is projecting normal voice on someone's utterances when vocalizations 1/2 #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@pamason2 @ktdigi6 how does vocalid affect this? it assumes there is a "normal" voice #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@freakin_miriam @ProfKeefe even the father in Sound and Fury he said he could excel at work with accommodations #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

A3 diagnosis relevant only for IEP and 504, otherwise culture is the experience #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@dvekemanLU exactly, so long as student has reliable system that's all that matters in my book #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@pamason2 can only promote lng acquisition by pairing language with visual accrding to research and helps inclusion if skill grows #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@ProfKeefe A2 same as any stdnt I suppose, whatever is most effective for stdnt but have a plan in place for trials-AAC,ASL,PECS etc #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@jbairdLU @ProfKeefe you said it best! i think user is the only one who can say, we can't judge the person Q1 #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@freakin_miriam that's a great point! Q1 #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

@ProfKeefe after watching Heather's Tedx Talk I think she would say she was changed and supported after getting #cochlearimplants #6119LU

[CJ Nadoo @nadoocj]

Q1 @ProfKeefe I think it's a bit of both. surgery changes person physically and it is a support/intervention opening possibilities #6119LU
