I was so impressed by the efforts of the government and others private sectors to make solution to help the disabled people to have a new chance of living in a richer life by the advanced of technology. During my stay in Japan, I am so surprised knowing that the disabled people in Japan are actively participating in society by the advanced of technology that encourages Independently living in daily life. The advanced technology really plays an important roles to develop the human resource of disabled people or enable disabled people to access all information and facility.
As we already know that the biggest difficulty, which most deaf people face in life, is socializing with Hearing people. The causal factor is due to the lack of communication or miscommunication between them, sometimes the Deaf do not have encouragement to have A Pride or Identity as a Deaf person. It might be they fear of being isolated, being refused or ignored by hearing people, so that is why most Deaf have been influenced with the unreasonable perception on their minds by stating that ‘being a hearing person’ is their goal. This phenomena will give a contribution in decreasing their self esteem that not enable them to develop their social and emotion skill in the future.
To cope with it, here I am most surprised since I have had Individual training in Deaf schools which the most important aspect in education here are family’s support and professional/skillful teachers in providing an early intervention on improving social and emotional development of the Deaf students that will contribute them to seek their identity or pride in the future.
I finally understood on how Deaf Teachers play important roles in the promotion of ideology and implementation, providing support to parents, support the deaf students, and promote regional activities and greater awareness in society, such as the activities to find ways to make advances with Deaf Awareness and sign language-2 issues of great import to deaf education in Japan is really very important for as I am very concerned about the deaf in Indonesia as most of them do not get enough education, they fail and receive many disadvantages in their education.
I would like to focus on education especially to spread Deaf Awareness that Sign Language is really needed by all Deaf in Indonesia. And I would like to support The Deaf to be more active participating in the society to be able to live more independently.
would like to express my deepest feeling to DUSKIN for giving me an opportunity studying in many areas here, and to the JSRPD and others people or institutions for Who always care and help me during my one year training.
