Hi all. I am new to this site and am a hearing person. I am taking a deaf culture and community class this semester, and I have a project to do. I need a hard of hearing person who went to public school and doesn’t know sign language, a hard of hearing person who knows sign language and went to a public or deaf school, a deaf person who went to public school, and a deaf person who went to a deaf school to answer these questions if you can.
1. What is your opinion on the cochlear implant, and should babies be implanted?
2. Should the police force learn sign language so that they can communicate with the deaf and hard of hearing?
3. What was your schooling experience like?
4. Were you brought up involved in the deaf community or in the hearing community, what was your experience like?
Thank you all so much!
