Subjects: Deaf children—Education. Hearing impaired children—Education. Individualized instruction. Literacy. Summary: Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) is a communication exceptionality which requires visual support of audio produced information. Historically, DHH children encounter more literacy difficulties than their peers with normal hearing. The connection between literacy skills and academic retention is well documented and accepted. Researchers have found DHH high school graduates have reading abilities that are comparable to non-impaired hearing Grade 4 students. This finding may lead to the incorrect conclusion that DHH students cannot develop reading skills similar to their hearing peers. Also, given the various causes and types of hearing loss, teachers can expect to be instructing at least one student who is DHH in their classroom. Overall, participant interviews revealed barriers to inclusive classroom practices. Future studies may wish to examine both pre-service and teachers’ beliefs toward inclusionary practice. 371.912 P965 Moeller, Mary Pat Promoting language and literacy in children who are deaf or hard of hearing Baltimore, MD: Paul H.

Visible learning for science, grades K-12 : what works best to optimize student learning
Thousand Oaks, CA: Corwin, 2018.
Subjects: Science—Study and teaching (Elementary). Science—Study and teaching (Middle
school). Science—Study and teaching (Secondary). Visual learning.
Summary: Like its bestselling predecessors, Visible Learning for Literacy and Visible Learning
for Math, this book will show teachers how to choose the right approach at the right time,
depending upon where learners are within three phases of learning: surface, deep, and transfer.
The result is "visible" learning that is apparent to both teachers and students. The common
framework is forged out of current research in science combined with John Hattie's synthesis of
more than 15 years of education research involving 300 million students. Tackling science topics
such as inquiry, laboratories, project-based learning, and discovery learning, the reader will learn
how to choose the best instructional strategies as well as how to differentiate instruction.
Examples throughout will cover grades K-12 and incorporate the major areas within science
(e.g., life, physical, earth and space, chemistry, etc.).
