| Research Abstract |
To support deaf and/or hard-of-hearing students in English learning, English captioning should be presented with consideration for the characteristics of their way of reading English. Unlike hearing students, their reading and lexical recognition appear not to depend greatly on phonological representation, and semantic representation seems to play a more significant role. In presenting real-time-recognition English captions, designers must refrain from excessive reduction of text per line. Depending on English level of students and content/level of captioned English, line breaks should occur at either period or comma (for lower level students and/or higher level contents/English) or at period only (for higher level students and/or lower level contents/English).
