A very nice website pertaining to issues students with hearing impairments experiences. A number of different topics are covered, and suggestions are provided on how to deal with issues and situations one encounters.

This website gives a few suggestions on how to help those who may have hearing impairments in addition to helping interpreters. I feel that there could be more suggestions added.

This website is useful to look up strategies to use in the classroom when there are students with hearing impairments. There were potential problems and challenges along with solutions. However, I thought the website could be better organized. The titles are vague, and it would be nice to click on specific challenges to find solutions.

For someone who isn't familiar with strategies to use with the deaf population, this is a great resource for teachers, instructors, and more!
