This site is a launch pad for almost any question you can ask about deafness. The links are of the general information variety rather than teacher-oriented, but if you know very little about deafness, this is a fine place to start. Includes feature articles, a chat room and bulletin board, plus recommended books (including children’s) and videos (that feature deaf characters, not videos about deafness). One must-visit link: signing dictionaries.
In the Classroom
Share this link with teachers who have a deaf student for the first time and are curious for more information. This site would also be a great research spring board into one of the many conditions that cause deafness. If students are working on a research project, refer them to the site in their quest to narrow their topic or to garner general information.
At Home
Parents, bookmark this page for information if you have concerns about your deaf child. It is also a great resource for students doing a research project on deafness or related conditions.
