An Interactive Courseware to Teach Mathematics for Children with Hearing Disabilities
This paper describes an interactive learning CD-based courseware that has been developed to assist school teachers using an effective approach to teach mathematics to special students in particular, hearing impaired students. As such, it overcomes the limitations of current e-learning systems that t...
