Overview:

Deaf Education is a pilot project that aims to settle a framework fo the creation of e-books for deaf students. Materials should be created to tackle the needs of the deaf community. For example, all material needs to be presented in sign language as supported by research. Visual input should lead the configuration of e-books. 

The pilot expands the distinguishable Pressbook and H5P for Deaf inclusive learners. Open education website produces content related to Pressbook, H5P, and digital access text with the inclusive framework and benchmarks.. The research project undertakes several strands of inquiry in order to develop a proposed theoretical framework that would guide the creation of e-books with the Pressbooks platform. This study has three parts:

1) The development of the theoretical framework for the purpose of evaluating Pressbooks.

2) Application of the theoretical framework to an available e-book creation platform (Pressbooks)

3) Evaluation of the efficacy of Pressbooks in providing an OER in the form of e-books for deaf learners in alignment with the proposed theoretical framework.

 

Type of Material:

  • Open (Access) Textbook
    • Case Study
    • Educational collections
    • Digital text accessibility
Recommended Uses:

The framework offers details on the implicationos of e-books for deaf learners. It deeply lays out why it is necessary to design e-books for the deaf students. It highlights how life feels for deaf people and why the attention of researchers and other experts will play a significan role on the design of learning materials for the deaf. Suggested uses:

  • Digital homework submission, for instance, Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI).
  • Individual and teamwork video or readable project.
  • Video and readable open class learnings.
Technical Requirements:

Reliable internet

  • The publishing platforms and H5P contents are importantly classified for Deaf learners, for instance, the Student of Learning from Virginia, and generally test learnings to transition the college and university.

  • The core curriculum implements the digital accessibility resources or materials in disciplinal Deaf Education and field studies.

  • OER and Pressbooks experiment with advanced learning disciplines, using materials and resources such as Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; International Sign Language; and Digital Open Textbooks and Accessibility without WiFi restrictions.

  • An increasable percentage of Deaf learners can study and acquiesce the enhanced educational transition colleges and Universities.

 

  • Excellent digital and bilingual education websites:

Potential Effectiveness as a Teaching Tool

Rating:
Strengths:

The material sets the foundation of an adequate framework to design e-books for the deaf community. The focus is on Pressbooks and how these platform can be optimized to provide the deaf students with enough supportive material. 

  • The learner should be able to learn and acquirable implementations and core curriculums and how formative and summative learnings the digital educational platforms.
  • The Tiers and Assistive Technology material tools for kids define levels of accessibility related to H5P and Universal Design for the learner in the process and cycle.
  • The sorts of Pressbook and any publishings are designed for Deaf learners in the shorter educational gaps. 
  • The teaching or faculty interacts with the curriculum of discipline for the international materials or tools relating to the timely submissions in the measurable process.
Concerns:

None

Ease of Use for Both Students and Faculty

Rating:
Strengths:

As you open the link, you are displayed with a set of options that will help you inform yourself about the contents the book contains. The content is easy to navigate as you can see all the topics and when you click, you will always see a video explaining what the content refers to.

  • It is informed of the contents for Deaf learners.
  • The framework is informed important for the best learning process and clear instructions.
Other Issues and Comments:

 The Pressbook and H5P are essential for the cycle of Deaf education and DEI about the digital classroom in the advanced technological century by a Deaf author and Deaf teams.
