Frequent Communicative Practices With Deaf And Hearing Students.

      Аннотация: Deaf and hard-of-hearing students in a Colombian University are required to enroll in English courses as a graduation fulfillment. This research aims to reveal what communicative practices promote and facilitate the learning of English literacy of these learners under an integration approach with hearing peers. The findings obtained suggest that communicative practices such as using writing as a mean of communication, implementing role plays and using transcripts in order to include deaf learners into the listening tasks were implemented satisfactorily and promoted inclusion of the deaf and most of the times literacy development.
