Write a short paper providing “principles of research and/or theory” to support your choices of your Learning Goal, Lesson Objectives, tasks, materials, planned supports, etc.
You must research and provide at least three citations of articles published in the last 5-10 years (the more recent, the better) that support your choices. You must provide quotations from these published materials and show how they directly support your choices. For example, if your Learning Goal (etc…) is: “Identify the first four sequence of events in a fictional text using a graphic organizer,” then your citation should be akin to: “R. Stewart Buchannon in his article, ‘Reading Comprehension and the Deaf Child,’ states that “using graphic organizers with deaf students is a relevant and effective strategy in identifying sequence of events in a text.” Dr. Buchannon’s statement directly supports my decision to help my Focus Learner identify sequence of events with the aid of the graphic organizer.”
Then you must provide the full citation on a separate, last page of your Review of Literature using APA format.
So, you are providing published evidence by noted authorities on teaching deaf and hard of hearing children. These citations and quotations offer professional justification for the choices you have made in how to teach your deaf/hh FL.
Provide citations and quotes and connect them to your choices, and show how your choices are justified and supported by professionals in the field of deaf education.
You must provide the full citation on a separate, last page of your Review of Literature using APA format.
