ABSTRACT
This survey-based study investigated deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) individuals' perceived need for technologies that may facilitate communication when meeting in small groups with hearing colleagues. Participants were 108 DHH postsecondary students who participated in co-op (internship) and capstone experiences at workplaces with hearing employees within the past two years. Participants' responses to a survey indicated that they were generally not satisfied with their current strategies and technologies for communicating with hearing persons in small groups.

The Impact of Assistive Technology on Communication Quality Between Deaf and Hearing Individuals
CSCW '17: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work and Social ComputingDeaf individuals often experience communication difficulties in face-to-face interactions with hearing people. In order to support deaf individuals in such situations, an active stream of assistive technology (AT) research focuses on real-time ...
User Experiences When Testing a Messaging App for Communication Between Individuals who are Hearing and Deaf or Hard of Hearing
ASSETS '17: Proceedings of the 19th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and AccessibilityThis study investigated user experiences of participants testing a prototype messaging app with automatic speech recognition (ASR). Twelve pairs of participants, where one individual was deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH), and the other one was hearing used ...
