What is Cued Speech?
Cued Speech is a mode of communication which combines a small number of simple hand cues with the natural mouth movements of speech to make the sounds or “phonemes” of spoken language clear through vision alone.
Consistent use of Cued Speech enables a deaf child to attain age-appropriate English language and literacy skills.
Cued Speech effectively complements the use of hearing aids and implants, clarifying any and all sounds, in real time, as they are spoken.
Cued Speech complements the use of sign language in a family that has the goal of English and ASL bilingualism for their child. As an outreach program of Alternatives in Education for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Individuals (AEHI), Cue College will offer an array of courses, products, services, and resources for teaching Cued Speech and best practices in the use of Cued Speech to families and professionals. Cue College was developed to be a collaborative platform from which our colleagues in the national and international Cued Speech community could share, via the internet, expertise and resources they have developed over the years — so that all who could benefit from Cued Speech would finally have access.
Cue College’s first online course provides an overview of the Cued Speech system and includes all the hand shapes and hand placements associated with each phoneme, or speech sound, of spoken English.
CS100 takes you through the foundations and mechanics of Cued Speech, with examples of different words cued at each hand placement with each hand shape. Along with an introduction lesson, there are fourteen lessons that cover the phonemes corresponding with each hand shape and hand placement. Each of those lessons include videos that you can watch while practicing your cueing. You will be able to save your progress and return at another time to complete the course.
