| Opplysninger | "In 260 years of Deaf education, almost no attention has been given to the work of Deaf teachers. This first in a series of volumes heralds the beginning of a new era, where experienced Deaf educators describe and explain their pedagogical practices and philosophies designed to ensure that Deaf children fulfil their maximum educational potential to navigate and thrive in the world. This book also enhances our understanding of Deaf cultures, because Deaf pedagogies are deeply rooted in the cultural wisdom of Deaf communities passed down through generations. It is this heritage that has enabled those communities to develop the resilience needed to survive and succeed despite the oppression experienced in their daily lives. The symbiotic relationship between Deaf cultures and Deaf pedagogies embodies a new, holistic approach to Deaf education that draws on more than 80 Deaf cultural values, skills and strategies intended to guide pupils through six 'levels' from kindergarten to graduation. This ground-breaking volume allows readers to fully appreciate the unrecognised significance of Deaf educators' work, which is pivotal to the long overdue reconstruction of Deaf education systems. As well as being designed for those involved with Deaf education (including parents of Deaf children, medical professionals and policy makers), this series of books is intended for students of Deaf cultures and sign languages. They also offer insights to practitioners and students of other minority cultures into their own education systems. For the open-minded reader who wants the best for Deaf education and Deaf children, this work offers the opportunity to literally see the world "through new eyes.""--
