My students are Deaf and Hard of Hearing and rely on American Sign Language as their mode of communication. As their teacher, I often use images from the computer to explain what is being taught. They have to see things visually in order to understand what they are learning. Curtis Pride, a professional baseball player said: "I am not going to use my deafness as an excuse for not being successful". This quote represents what I instil​ in my students on a daily basis. I often remind them that "Deaf People Can Do Anything BUT Hear". With the use of Chromebooks, they will be able to explain clearly what they are trying to say as well as seeing things visually because they rely on their EYES not their EARS for learning.
