What? They have only followed the children to age 5 so far. What are you talking about? It is not a school-specific study, it is a population level study.

That is everyone under the age of 18. They are following children after identification longitudinally. They enroll the entire population every year. They said that they identify around 300 kids a year.

The study has been enrolling children identified since the year 2005. They have followed 460 up until age 5. They have around 300 children identified each year. The study is longitudinal, so the longer it goes on, the more children are enrolled. This is not a difficult concept. You saw the...

Identify by UNHS since 2005 and followed up to age 5 so far. Why is this hard to understand? It is clearly laid out as a population study.

The population that they are studying is all the children found to have hearing loss in the country since 2005. That is the full population. It is only 460 kids so far.

No because it isn't true. If you read the words I actually wrote, rather than your angry interpretation, you will see that I said that I did no such thing. Look at my words, not what you are assuming I said. I don't teach children who do not use spoken language, so I don't have a specific...

No, actually never said that. I repeatedly said that no one method works better and that parents are the decision makers.

I have a break for recess (no recess duty today) as well as 45 minutes for lunch (which I spent with my husband today) and a one hour prep between 12:30 and 1:30. School is out at 3. Thanks for asking ;)

Are you going to apologize for claiming I was falsifying information and admit that is actually a longitudinal, population study?

This research is not funded by a CI company, it is funded by the Australian government, as you saw. It is not promoting one methodology or language, but instead looking at outcomes longitudinally.

No, the conference had both real time captioning and ASL interpreters. You have no idea what conference I am talking about so how would you know about the accessibility? I don't remotely find people with hearing loss inferior. That is absurd. I originally was looking at being an SLP but...

I can't believe you tried to call me stupid and claim I was manipulating and falsifying information when exactly what I said was the first line on the page you shared.

THE VERY FIRST LINE OF THAT PAGE SAYS SO.

You are 100% wrong. They are following every single child found to have hearing loss longitudinally since 2005. They have less children diagnosed each year than the state of Illinois. If a family uses Auslan, they are absolutely included in the research. It is a full population study. I just...

They included every child. It doesn't matter if they have additional disabilities or not. Why would they do the research, as researchers, just to lie about it? It is fully funded by the government. That doesn't make sense. If a longitudinal, population study funded by the government isn't good...

A lot of families use the "Signing Time" videos. They are usually available at your local library.

I told you that the LOCHI study is a population study. It is every single child in the entire country of Australia.

If any of what you said was true, you could easily point to data that backs you up. If you would provide me the research that says that kids who have ASL as their L1 do better than those who have English as their L1, I would be more than willing to read it. I have already provided you with two...
