A Lesson in Discrimination.
Chotiner, Barbara; Hameroff-Cohen, Wendy
Perspectives in Education and Deafness, v12 n5 p18-19 May-Jun 1994
Public high school students with deafness vividly learned about the realities of discrimination when they were informed of "new rules for deaf students," which required that they wear "deaf badges" in school, follow a strict dress code, and so on. After the "new rules" hoax was revealed, students' feelings and reactions to the situation were discussed. (JDD)
