Language education of immigrant d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing multilingual learners – an interview study

ABSTRACT For newly arrived students who are d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH), language acquisition is particularly complex. The spectrum of initial language situations ranges from no first language to multilingual acquisition contexts. In Germany, there are currently no studies that focus on the education of these learners. This prompted an interview study with six teachers of the d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing, investigating how the language education of newly arrived DHH schoolchildren is designed from the perspective of their teachers. The results of the study, which is based on grounded theory methodology, show that teaching this target group presents major challenges. In the face of this, teachers are highly uncertain of how best to meet the needs of their students, as they have neither information on the language development of these students nor suitable assessment tools and language teaching materials to use in class. The results underline the need for (1) research on the language acquisition and development of newly arrived DHH students, (2) the development or adaptation of assessment tools and (3) effective teaching methods and materials, and finally, (4) the development of teacher training possibilities.

Implementation of a Cloud Computing Based Learning Management System in Education Management

Modern education increasingly demands innovation in developing exciting and effective teaching materials. Augmented Reality Technology has attracted attention as a potential tool for increasing student interactivity and engagement in learning. With its ability to present additional information in a natural environment, Augmented Reality offers the opportunity to create immersive and engaging learning experiences. This research explores the use of Augmented Reality in developing interactive teaching materials, focusing on its effectiveness in increasing student understanding and facilitating more profound learning. The research method used in this study was a randomized control experiment in a secondary school. The randomized control experimental research method is used to evaluate the effects of an intervention or treatment on a group compared to a control group that did not receive the intervention or treatment. Data was collected through pre- and post-teaching comprehension tests and surveys of student satisfaction with the learning experience. The results of this research show that using interactive teaching materials based on Augmented Reality increases students’ understanding compared to using conventional teaching materials. Additionally, students in the experimental group reported higher satisfaction levels with their learning experience than the control group. This research concludes that using Augmented Reality to develop interactive teaching materials has great potential to increase learning effectiveness. By presenting additional information visually and interactively, Augmented Reality can improve students’ understanding and increase their involvement in learning. Therefore, integrating Augmented Reality in developing teaching materials can be a valuable step in improving the quality of education.
