Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the English vocalization of deaf students and present the basic data for the development of personalized English learning aid tools that reflect its features. We visited hearing special schools in Seoul and Daegu and recorded English vocalization of the deaf students in order to analyze the characteristics of deaf students' English vocalization. We analyzed the data by Praat program, an professional voice analysis program. The voice features of deaf students' English vocalization were extracted and then compared with those of non-deaf students' English vocalization.

본 논문에서는 청각장애학생들의 영어 발성의 특징을 분석하여 그 특징들을 반영할 수 있는 맞춤형 영어 학습 보조 도구를 개발하기 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 청각장애학생들의 영어 발성의 특징을 분석하기 위해서 서울과 대구에 있는 청각특수학교의 학생들을 대상으로 직접 방문하여 녹음하였으며, 음성파일을 분석하기 위해 음성분석 전문 프로그램인 플라트 프로그램을 활용하였다. 청각장애학생들의 영어 발성의 특징은 플라트 프로그램을 통해 음성학에서 사용하는 음성의 특징 값들을 추출하여, 그 특징 값들을 이용하여 비장애학생의 영어 발성의 특징과 비교분석하였다.
