This project explored the use of a range of learning technologies by TAFE students who are Deaf and hard of hearing. Infrastructure requirements, such as access to interpreters skilled in Auslan signing for the profoundly Deaf, were also explored. The report discusses the range of ways information in the classroom can be made more visual. It also discusses barriers to the implementation and use of these new learning technologies.
