The Effect Of Elaboration And Nonelaboration Of Sign List Recall Tasks On Rate Of Learning In Deaf Individuals, Robert Whitaker
PCOM Psychology Dissertations
Purpose: Little research has been done on American Sign Language (ASL) based list learning in deaf individuals.

One of the main approaches for instruction of deaf individuals is the use of elaboration, or the combination of visual with linguistic information in the classroom. Visual aids or visual representations of information are commonly recommended as an effective strategy for teaching deaf individuals (DeafTEC, 2014). The main reasons for this approach are the assumption that vision is a stronger more …
