"Deaf Learning": Using a Visual Method to Teach Written Language to the Deaf
The majority of deaf people prefer to use the visual channel for communication, choosing a national sign
language instead of a spoken language. In many countries, Deaf education is still not bilingual, therefore
deaf people frequently have problems with learning and using the written language of their country. The
Erasmus+ project "Deaf Learning" addresses the need for a visually-oriented written language course for
the levels from A1 to B2. The main target group is that of young deaf adults aged 16 to 25 years.
A secondary target group are older deaf people who are interested in improving their written language
