A solid identity, fluency in language, and knowledge of one's culture/history is a strong part of motivation for academic and personal success for Deaf learners. The materials are chosen to maximize such need. The two DVDs showcase a comprehensive history of American Deaf culture while the second set teaches about ASL idioms, key for vocabulary development. The books are selected based on their coverage of deaf history, self-advocacy tips, ASL grammar and vocabulary, deaf issues, and personal stories of successful deaf individuals. One book "You Have A Deaf Student: Now What" is going to be a great guide for teachers.
