Abstract

A review of the literature yields many intriguing applications of interactive multimedia technology that can be seen through a series of 'snapshots' describing current projects and initiatives for Deaf education. The five main categories chosen to represent these activities are: instructional design, communication bridges, skill development simulations, distance learning practices, and discovery learning. Throughout the discourse on these projects, the reader will be supplied with relevant data regarding bandwidth, digital divide, feedback, digital rights management, and distribution issues. Attention will then turn to the secondary goal of connecting the lessons learned and the resources available in these arenas to the specific topic of public address training. The author concludes that a survey is necessary to identify the perceptions about technology in regards to its ability to aid in public address practice or performance among Deaf students.
