  • Mariann Carter - Carter Hears! and The Quill Model of learning
    2021/06/17

    #013.  How a normal hearing  child of deaf adults serves children with hearing loss and develops a better model for their communication and educational needs!

    In addition to serving as owner and lead consultant for Carter Hears! in Fort Mill, South Carolina, an educational consulting group that focuses on children with hearing loss by supporting schools, professionals, and families with customized services. Mariann Carter has developed an unique model for optimizing education for children with hearing loss.  The Quill Model.

    The Quill Model aims to demonstrate that services like these depicted in the photo, with three communication options and access to grade-level content, are just the beginning of a purposeful and outcomes-based relationship with the community. Knowing the challenges makes it almost impossible for most districts to accomplish a true language intensive environment for students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing.  These challenges exist for many reasons – resources, a critical mass of students, and available teachers with background and training, as well as trained individuals and adult role models who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing to model naturally communication in the environment. Therefore, to provide the perfect foundation of language intensity, academic content, technology, social and executive functioning skills, The Quill Model strives to be a bridge that addresses LEAD-K in action. 

    Mariann Carter, a child of deaf adults, has taken the work of two generations and brought it forth to be used in schools for the deaf, school districts, charter options and more. Visit www.quillmodel.com today to learn more about how they can help to bring about a more successful and well-rounded language-intensive education for students with hearing loss.
