My Project

Unlike their hearing peers, Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) students depend on visual cues, such as sign language, lip reading, and written instructions, for communication and comprehension. Excessive visual clutter can cause distractions, reduce processing efficiency, and lead to unnecessary cognitive overload. Additionally, poor organization of learning materials can hinder their ability to quickly access resources, follow lesson plans, and manage their workload independently.

A well-lit, well-organized space with easy access to digital tools is crucial for their success.

Many DHH students use laptops or tablets for note-taking, video communication, and speech-to-text applications. However, without a dedicated charging station and proper cable management, devices may run out of power or become a source of distraction.

LED lights can serve a dual purpose: improving visibility for reading, signing, and lip-reading, as well as acting as attention-grabbing signals in the classroom. Since DHH students rely on visual rather than auditory cues, strategically placed LED lights can be used to gain their attention, signal transitions, or provide alerts for important instructions. Extension cords ensure that all necessary devices remain powered and accessible, further supporting a structured and efficient learning environment.
