How did the views that oralists held about deaf education differ from modern linguists?.

Sagot :

The views held by the oralists about deaf education differ from those held by modern linguists in the following way;

According to oralists, deaf children would struggle to learn languages (both spoken and written) using sign language and they would be secluded from the rest of the hearing community.  However modern linguists are of the idea that sign language improves deaf people's ability to learn languages.

Several studies carried out in the late 190s by modern linguists revealed that sign language is one of the best ways to improve the learning ability of languages for both hearing and deaf children and that the deaf community includes those close to the deaf in our society.

This is clearly different from what the oralists believed since their views were against sign language. They further believed that signing would separate them from the rest of the community and sabotage their ability of learning spoken and written languages.
