Abstract: The study found that the extent of teacher control over conversations with deaf pupils using oral/aural only, signed English, or cued speech communication affected pupil response, including taking initiative in conversations, misunderstanding of the teacher, and length of conversational contributions. Different methods of communication by the 13 teachers produced few differences in response. (Author/DB)
