Information technology is also important to allow the student to sit where they choose, every bit the educatee may need to sit near the forepart as an accommodation for their inability too.

In your syllabus, please state that students who demand to apply an electronic device should contact the instructor to request an exception. In this way, you lot tin avoid specifically singling out students with disabilities.

• If the speaker plans to read material in the class, information technology is beneficial for the student to be given the cloth prior to the beginning of the class then they can follow along with what is being read.

• When reading a text in class, please make sure to cite the page number and paragraph that yous are reading from so the student tin follow forth.

• The captioner cannot caption and talk at the same time. Avoid speaking directly to the captioner or request questions of the captioner during grade time.

• Face the person who is D/deafened or difficult of hearing and speak to them the same way you would to any other student.

• Do not make comments to the captioner that yous do non intend to have captioned to the D/deafened or difficult of hearing student, even if the pupil's back is turned.

• In classes in which there is a great deal of classroom participation, it is helpful if the students in the class raise their hands and expect to be called upon earlier speaking. This allows the interpreter and the D/deaf or hard-of-hearing student fourth dimension to place who is speaking before proceeding with the interpreted statement.

• Speak clearly and in a normal tone when using an interpreter. Do non blitz through a lecture. If the interpreter does non understand or did not hear what was said, they may ask the speaker to slow downwardly or recapitulate the information given.

• Allow time to study handouts, charts, or overheads. A person who is D/deaf or difficult of hearing cannot watch the interpreter and study written data at the same time.
