Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is inferred that the result is better if the instructor's demonstration and description displayed at the same time on the PC screen, in the practical training seminar for hearing-impaired students. The software, displays the description indicator adjacent to the demonstration display, was developed to inspect this hypothesis. The software was verified its efficiency in the experiment by hearing-impaired students. In few cases in the experiment, it was speculated that the indication system in this software was not enough. We improved the software more intuitive using icons or indicators of text information and verified efficiency of improved software.
