David Deyo was an educational audiologist, researcher, and author at Gallaudet University The Clerc Center until his untimely death in 1991. He published a number of guides and curricula that emphasized a cultural approach to communication therapy with deaf and hard of hearing children. David was a pioneer for this approach, contributing to a new way of thinking about teaching deaf and hard of hearing children to make the most of the tools available to them for communicating in a wide variety of environments.

This substantive revision of David Deyo's Speechreading in Context (1984) reflects changes in trends in education toward an even more integrated, child-centered, inclusive approach to meeting the communicative and educational needs of deaf and hard of hearing children. It is my hope that this working paper and the product that will later result are the natural evolution of Mr. Deyo's earlier work.
