The Oral Methods and Spoken Language Acquisition
The Oral Methods and Spoken Language Acquisition
This chapter discusses oral methods for the development of spoken language skills for communication and learning, and involve the production and reception of spoken language without the support of a visual-manual language or an artificially developed communication system. These methods have contributed to the rich, multi-century history pertaining to the education of children who are deaf and hard of hearing. The chapter focuses on the development of the oral methods, the different approaches which fall under the broad umbrella of the oral method, and what recent research has contributed to our knowledge about the use and effectiveness of oral methods.
