Thesis: Bimodal education in the context of bilingual education has a positive impact on the communication and broader cognitive development of the hearing impaired child.
Concepts discussed: This article discusses the method of bilingual education in the context of its use in the education of children with hearing impairment. In this area, special attention is paid to Bilingual Education popularised in Poland by Magdalena Dunaj.
Conclusions: Bilingual education of Deaf children supports the communicative and cognitive development of children with hearing impairment. However, it requires a lot of work on the part of both the parents and the child, as well as extensive support from health services and educational institutions.
Cognitive value of the approach: The described educational model is optimal for the development of children with hearing impairment and should be popularised. Furthermore, bilingualism for hearing impaired children is not a frequently addressed topic in pedagogy.
