Gehörlosenpädagogik
The concept of multiliteracies can be put into pedagogical practice in the classroom by providing students with non-traditional means of engaging with educational materials based on their identities and personal educational needs. In the context of Deaf education, video technology can be used not only to disseminate and analyze works of ASL literature, but to increase literacy in the classroom by providing students with visual feedback on their own work. By allowing students to watch a video playback of themselves, they are able to develop their own language fluency by seeing which of their poetic or narrative works are more or less successful. This process allows students to develop their own cognitive abilities and begin exploring deeper literary analyses of their own work.
