Abstract

In the class of practical lesson such as painting or modeling to hearing impaired students, conventional translation services do not make enough effects because students cannot see a signer or captioning texts and teacher’s operation simultaneously. To solve the problem, we propose a tabletop projection system with special software which displays synchronized explanation texts which is prepared in advance. With this system, the teacher can project text information just besides operation area on the table. To control the timing of changing those texts, the teacher use foot pedals. Hearing impaired students’ answers for questionnaires after a practical lesson of Manga drawing with proposed system showed that it was useful for such a lesson.
