Secure Wireless Infrastructures and Mobile Learning for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Students

In this paper, we discuss how wireless networks and mobile learning form an attractive and helpful framework for supporting Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D-HH) students in Higher Education. The proposed multi-domain framework includes Secure Wireless Infrastructures and Personalized Educational Learning Environments (SWI_PELE). We present the collaboration of such environments and briefly discuss a pilot implementation. The framework includes a scheme of servers and incorporates wireless infrastructure, and personalized, multimedia based educational course material. We also present and discuss how the proposed architecture can support services for D-HH students.
