Description

Written for practitioners from a variety of backgrounds, this text is intended for teachers, residential staff and students who wish to understand more about the education of children and young people who are deafblind. Illustrated with case studies of children and young people, the book deals with key issues of communication, curriculum, teaching and learning and personal and social development. Educational and legal frameworks are explained in practical and accessible terms, and teaching staff are encouraged to use their creative skills in the classroom while remaining within existing national curricular frameworks. The book updates and replaces "CONTACT: A Resource for Staff Working With Children Who Are Deafblind" publshed by Moray House Publications in 1993.
