[quote=loml;825284]Cueing puts deaf childrens comprehension of the printed word equal to that of hearing children. Do you see a problem with that?
Yes, I do have a problem with that becasue none of the research I have seen and read on CS has come to that conclusion. And, as I said, you are not accounting for the linguistic factors, nor the cognitive factors that translate to literacy skills. Visual phonetics on the mouth is not the same as word recognition in print. For one thing, as I have previously mentioned, words in print are not spelled phonetically. So if you are providing a phonetic representation through speech, it is inconsistent with the same wymbolic representation in print.
Deaf children who cue understand that people have different dialects, because they see the difference.[/QUO
And deaf children who sign understand the same thing through regionality. The point is?
