“…In contrast to our expectations, the receptive and expressive language scores of 4-year-old children with HL did not clinically contribute to the development of QoL. The absence of a clear relation between language skills and QoL in children with HL was also found in other studies on language skills and social emotional functioning [12,[63][64][65][66]. They found that communication skills and not language skills are more import for social functioning which in turn can affect the wellbeing of children with HL.…”

To compare the quality of life (QoL) of children with hearing loss (HL) and children with normal hearing (NH) and to examine how the QoL of children with HL changes over time, considering language skills, type of hearing device, degree of HL, and type of education. Methods and materials: This longitudinal study included 62 children with HL and their parents. Developmental outcome data were collected at two time points, when the mean ages of the children were 4 and 11 years. The Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL™) questionnaire, which includes assessments of Physical, Emotional, Social, and School functioning, was completed by parents at both time points and by the children with HL at the second time point. Receptive and expressive language skills at 4 years were assessed by the Reynell Developmental Language Scale. Results were compared with a Dutch normative sample. Results: The QoL of children with HL was similar to that of children with NH at both time points on two of the four QoL scales, Emotional and Physical functioning. On the other two scales, Social and School functioning, children with HL who attended special education and children who switched to mainstream education showed lower scores than children with HL who were consistently in mainstream education and lower scores than children with NH. The School QoL of children with HL decreased over time, as did the School QoL of children with NH. Social QoL of children with cochlear implants decreased over time, but this was not the case in children with hearing aids. Language skills and the degree of HL did not clinically improve the QoL over time of preschool children with HL. Conclusions: The QoL of children with HL in mainstream education and the Physical and Emotional QoL of all children with HL were satisfactory. It is essential to develop specific guidance regarding school activities for children with HL in special education and for children with HL who switch to mainstream education in order to increase their social QoL.

“…Relying on factors such as 'education' and 'Interacting with society and fulfilling social roles', they found that social inclusion was influenced by speech abilities and vocabulary. Constantinescu-Sharpe et al (2017) examined two aspects of social Inclusion, namely 'education' and 'interacting with society and fulfilling social goals'. They surveyed the parents of deaf children order categorical Interactions among school and background characteristics.…”

Children with deafness encounter multiple problems in the course of developing their language and literacy skills. This research aimed at introducing a detailed review of the literature on issues affecting deaf children in acquiring language and literacy skills. Many problems pertaining to the development of literacy skills and the interrelationship between reading and writing are demonstrated. A review was carried out across the scientific databases (Semantic scholar-JSTOR-SAGE Journals-PubMed). The articles were categorised to address issues pertaining to the development of language and literacy skills, with a focus on reading and writing. Factors such as age, degree of deafness, student's age at the time of deafness, use of hearing aids, and the children's family and socio-economic backgrounds, all of which influence the language development of deaf children were investigated. The results of this review helped demonstrate important factors affecting the development of language skills among children with deafness, and highlighted the need for different approaches to respond to them.

“…The DHH people are not able to fully participate in the hearing world due to the communication barrier they have with hearing people, and the lack of equal access to information that hearing people enjoy. This deprivation of information causes detrimental impacts on self-confidence and self-concept for deaf communities (Constantinescu-Sharpe et al, 2017). Consequently, it causes delays in educational, social and psycho-social development within deaf communities, and negatively impacts their opportunities in employment, education and income (McKee et al, 2012;Greenberg and Kusché, 1993).…”

Deaf people face many challenges to communicate with the hearing world. Many studies and industrial solutions came up with interpretation from sign language to normal text but most of them are limited either to static images for letters or static animated character plays the word in motion. Therefore, this research worked on enhancing the feasible algorithms that have been used like image detection, image processing techniques and image translation methods. The contribution consists of two parts, the first one is using our data set, and the second one is proposing a new solution by extracting SURF features after using image filtering based on the existing methods to accelerate the translation process for the long sentences. Experimental results over our data set report improved accuracy compared with other studies in terms of efficiency time and recognition rate of sign language character recognition.
