Can you explain how the CI and full inclusion ends up being the least expensive altrnative int he long run given the expense of services such as CART being demanded at the high school level for CI users?
And, this topic is about focusing on the CI users pronunciation and speech, rather than on their language acquisition and use. It is a statement of priorities, and the mistaken assumtption that being able to speak well indicates advanced ability to use language and advanced cognitive capabilities. What are your comments on that assumption?
