      The article presents arguments of whether to favor sign language over listening and spoken language when teaching deaf children. It cites that one argument contends that being taught sign with spoken language maximizes chances for developing a firm linguistic foundation while another espouses that listening and spoken language is the right way, and some advocating instead for educational programs that emphasize listening and spoken language before and after cochlear implantation.
