Total Communication: Structure and Strategy

Resource Type

Book

Description

"Total communication, a method utilizing a combination of visual and auditory cues in an attempt to maximize comprehension, has long been a focus of debate by the deaf community, families of deaf children, and education professionals. For perhaps the first time, this book documents total communication's historical and philosophical roots and analyzes the strengths and limitations of total communication's elemental parts and their salient linguistic properties." -Gallaudet University Press (gallaudet.edu)
