A Computer Based Software for Hearing Impaired Children's Speech Training and Learning Between Teacher and Parents in Taiwan

Abstract

The paper is to design a computerbased software for hearing impaired children's speech training and learning. To use visual assistant method for training and developing the speech ability of hearing impaired children, we used the technique of dynamic computer graphics to establish an animation display system. The system can display the dynamic relation among the basic elements of the articulators. The position and the change of nose chamber, mouth chamber, tongue, and lips during a speech will be shown from different profiles. This makes sure that the subject with hearing impaired children can catch the accurate speech technique. In the future, we will use the network tuition model to assist the special education teachers in their teaching method. Using such an assistant system, we are sure of the improvement of the efficiency and efficacy for developing the language and speech ability of hearing impaired children.
