PhD Researcher @unihh, Deaf Teacher, Math Education, Deutsche Gebärdensprache (DGS), interested in early childhood mathematics & patterning & number signs
How are the numerical skills of deaf students when they entered to school? No different than children without language deprivation. Most interestingly, certain tasks show language modality-specific differences. Read more (with an English summary):

"Contrary to predictions often cited in the literature, acquisition of sign language does not harm spoken vocabulary acquisition."
Learning multiple languages does not confuse kids.

Learning numbers for all children - with German sign language, German words, dots and pictures. Number signs can be viewed via QR code in the posters.
An inclusive project with KSL-MSi @ksl_nrw, Mathe inklusiv mit PIKAS @TU_Dortmund & MaBaKo-Deaf @unihh

@jmhenner Exactly! I am currently conducting a similar study with Barbara Haenel-Faulhaber in Germany, where we are also looking at the individual situation of DHH students when they enter school.
New paper out with @MarieCoppola68@emleh06@Walker_KristinM showing the importance of early accessible (sign) language to support executive function skills in deaf/hard-of-hearing children. 🧵1/6

Dinner Table Syndrome: Mangel an wechselseitigen Dialog am Esstisch führt zu wenig beiläufiges Lernen, was somit zu kognitiven Einschränkungen bei tauben und hörbehinderten Kindern führen kann.

Loved having my presentation for the International Congress on the Education for the Deaf (ICED) in ASL, Auslan, ISL, captioned and voiced in English. #ICED2021
Important statement on education of deaf children from @WFDeaf_org: „Inclusion is an experience, it is a holistic experience - it is not a placement.“

I have the pleasure to present our work! Thanks to the organizers for providing interpretation in Auslan, International Signs and English captions.

@mdemeulder In the Meeting Hub, attendees can get in touch with each other. On the congress platform it is written that an interpreting service will not be offered. So it will be difficult for DHH signers and hearing non-signers to network.
Hope that an interpreting service will be offered.
Looking forward to the ICED 2021! Will present our findings on basic mathematical skills of deaf children in Germany with Barbara Hänel-Faulhaber.
