This entry needs amending edit

My reasons for stating this are that Total Communication is not solely used in 'deaf education'.

It is an eclectic approach to communication that uses a wide range of communication techniques.

It is applied to help overcome a huge range of challenges to communication, this can include other sensory challenges beside hearing impairment, and also learning disabilities, where people can have difficulty processing language. Max Neill 15:19, 28 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sources unclear edit

I recently made an article in french and i added a {{No footnotes}} template because nothing in the article is linked to the sources in the bibliography, furthermore 2 links are broken and i couldn't repair them.

My research allowed me to find this document : http://www.ericdigests.org/1998-2/total.htm that gives nearly all the information givent in the article, it could be used as a source.

I won't edit the article myself as I don't think my english is good enough to do that.

Lead section edit

The lead section of Total Communication needs a rewrite. Everything after the first paragraph probably needs to be moved to at least one new section in the body of the article (and probably more). Also, the content might not reflect a global view. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 01:03, 29 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
