    http://www.ridbc.org.au/information/deaf/deaf_what.html
    
    Extractions: Definition An often used formal definition of deafblindness is: Deafblindness is a condition in which there is a combination of visual and hearing impairments that cause "such severe communication and other developmental and learning needs that the persons cannot be appropriately educated in special education programs solely for children and youth with hearing impairments, visual impairments or severe disabilities without supplementary assistance to address their educational needs due to these dual concurrent disabilities". If a child is profoundly deaf and is also blind or has a significant vision impairment, his or her experience of the world extends only as far as the fingertips can reach. Such children are effectively alone if no-one is touching them. Their concept of the world depends upon what or whom they have had the opportunity to physically contact. Many deafblind children have enough vision to be able to move about in their environments, recognise familiar people, see sign language at close distances and perhaps read large print. Others have sufficient hearing to recognise familiar sounds, understand some speech or develop speech themselves. The range of sensory impairments included in the term "deafblindness" is great.

    Extractions: Children with multiple disabilities including deafblindness Educating Children with Multiple Disabilities , USA: Paul H. Brookes Publishing Co. Deafblind children with additional disabilities require particular programs that focus on communication. Some deafblind children have enough residual hearing or vision to use speech, symbols or gestures without special modification, others may require amplification or enlargement. For those with severely limited vision and hearing, it may be necessary to use more specialised materials, such as object or texture boards or some other tactile modality - a form of an alphabet code or adaptations of lipreading and sign language. The development of appropriate social behaviour also requires special consideration for deafblind children. Stereotypic self-abuse, autoteric and ritualistic-perseverative behaviours are common. With the exception of behaviour that is severely or immediately damaging to the child or others, efforts should be geared toward developing more acceptable forms of behaviour rather than suppressing current behaviour. It's also important to increase independent learning skills if students are to make transitions from school to adult life.

    Extractions: Home Introduction Although the term "deafblind" may at first seem absolute, in reality people who are deafblind experience a broad range of perceptions. Someone may be completely blind but only partially deaf, or have some vision early in life, no hearing at all, and gradually lose that vision. Only a very few people described as "deafblind" are profoundly deaf and totally blind. It is difficult for sighted, hearing people to imagine the world of a person who is completely deafblind. Their experience is limited to that which they can touch, which is why developing options for communication and mobility become an all-consuming goal. If the person has some vision and/or hearing, their world expands somewhat, but adapting to the condition is still a monumental challenge. Communication and mobility are the two areas most affected by a loss of sight and hearing. A person who cannot hear or see is essentially alone unless someone is in actual physical contact, which adds to a feeling of isolation and loneliness. Many deafblind children, as many as 80%, have additional disabling conditions. These may include mental retardation, physical handicaps, social/emotional issues and communication delay. Who is deafblind?

    Extractions: The federal definition of deafblindness states: "children and youth having auditory and visual impairments, the combination of which creates such severe communication and other developmental and learning needs that they cannot be appropriately educated in special education programs solely for children and youth with hearing impairments, visual impairments, or severe disabilities, without supplementary assistance to address their educational needs due to these dual, concurrent disabilities." 34 CFR 300.5 (b) (2) The majority of individuals who are deafblind have some residual use of hearing and vision. Some may have no usable hearing or vision and some may have additional challenges such as cognitive or physical disabilities. A combination of hearing and vision losses may cause deficits in communication, orientation and mobility, social skills, and developmental delays. Individuals who are deafblind have the same basic needs as all children, but they also have complex and unique challenges and must be taught what other children learn incidentally through observing, naturally interacting with others, and overhearing. Educational needs may require modified curricula and specialized instructional techniques beyond that of hearing impairment, visual impairment, or multiple disabilities. There are four critical factors that affect the severity of deafblindness:

    Extractions: Return to: Georgia Sensory Assistance Project When we hear the term deafblind, we often imagine a person who is unable to hear or see anything. This is typically not the case. A range of vision and hearing loss can occur in combination. Functional levels may vary from hard-of-hearing and partially sighted to profoundly deaf and totally blind. This may allow some individuals with deafblindness to have enough vision to move about their environments, see sign language at close distances, recognize loud familiar sounds, and recognize familiar objects. A combined vision and hearing loss can cause developmental delays and deficits in areas such as communication, concept development, social skills, and mobility, but they do not always limit the individual’s learning potential. The combined auditory and visual impairment causes unique educational needs requiring specialized instructional techniques and modified curricula beyond those generally provided in the field of visual impairments, hearing impairments or multiple disabilities. Technical assistance is provided by the Georgia Sensory Assistance Project to parents, teachers and related services staff to address the child’s unique needs.

    http://education.gsu.edu/georgiadeafblindproj/concept.html
    
    Extractions: Return to: Georgia Deafblind Project Products What is Deafblindness? Concept Development Concepts and ideas that children develop about their world occur through seeing and hearing events over and over again, and through moving in and interacting with the world around them. Due to their sensory loss, children with deafblindness are unable to learn about concepts through seeing and/or hearing events repeated. These children also lack curiosity and motivation to seek out new situations in the world around them due to their sensory loss. Other additional disabilities, such as cerebral palsy, may further limit the child with deafblindness from being able to actively move about and interact with the environment The child with deafblindness may have difficulty learning about such concepts as the properties of objects (e.g., big versus little, round versus square), spatial relationships (e.g., in versus out, near versus far), time constraints (e.g., night versus day, sequence of days/events), cause and effects (e.g., that pushing a ball causes it to roll away), object permanence (e.g., that the ball which has rolled away is still there even though it is out of reach). In addition, daily living skills such as self-feeding, dressing, and hygiene may be difficult to master since the child with deafblindness may be unable to learn these skills by imitating others.
