Effects of Embossed Picture Technique on Reading Performance

Kenya has made positive steps towards improving Special Needs Education. But reading among learners with hearing impairments still remain a challenge. Embossed picture technique has not been used in learning institutions in Kenya to teach reading to learners with hearing impairments. This book recommends the use of Embossed picture technique to teach reading to learners in lower classes when learners are being introduced to reading to give a strong reading background to learners as they use other active senses of sight touch feel and smell to maximize their ability to read to learn and to understand.
