This is a great FREE online resource for teachers and parents of deaf and hard of hearing children. It is also great for those who want to learn more about hearing loss, advocacy, technology, and more.

To the right you will see a section that says 'Downloads'. Click on this and download the program to your computer, preferably a PC. Be sure to extract all files or select 'Extract all files'. You may also download pages in PDF form.
I really like this guide. It is an interactive presentation which covers basically everything you should know or be aware of when it comes to deaf and hard of hearing issues. Although this seems to be more for deaf or hard of hearing teenagers or young adults, I think it is a great resource for anyone wanting to learn more about deafness. The guide also includes resources specifically for professionals and for parents and family members. This guide seems unbiased and does not only talk about one communication mode or seem to prefer one over another.
I highly recommend everyone to download this guide and use it.
