The objective is to design a computer-based software for hearing impaired children's speech training and learning. To use a visual assistant method for training and developing the speech ability of hearing impaired children, we used the technique of dynamic computer graphics to establish an animation display system. The system can display the dynamic relations among the basic elements of the articulators. The position and the change of nose chamber, mouth chamber, tongue, and lips during speech will be shown from different profiles. This makes sure that the subject with hearing impaired children can catch the accurate speech technique. In the future, we will use the network tuition model to assist special education teachers in their teaching methods. Using such an assistant system, we are sure of achieving improvement of the efficiency and efficacy for developing the language and speech ability of hearing impaired children.

The purpose of the research is to design a visual assistant method for training and developing the speech ability of people with hearing disorders. We used the technique of dynamic computer graphics to establish a display system. The system can display the dynamic relation among the basic elements of speaking. The position and the change of the mouth chamber, tongue, and lips during speech were shown from different profiles. This ensures that the subject with a hearing disorder acquires an accurate speech technique. We also used the network tuition model to assist teachers in their teaching method. Using such an assistant system, we are confident that the efficiency and efficacy of developing the language and speech ability of hearing disorders can be improved.

Bipolar disorder is a chronic, recurrent disorder, and its dysfunction has been correlated with poor outcomes and increased risk of recurrence. The main purpose of the family therapy model at issue is to prevent the bipolar patient against recurrent episode.The focuses of the therapy sessions are on the apples drawn by the patient(DDAA), the patient, and the patient-parent relationship. Keywords are gathered from every participant during the therapy session. Besides, the subjects to have verbalized meaningful ideas or successful experiences are immediately, intensely praised by applause during the session. DAILY DRAW AN APPLE(DDAA) homework is that the patient has drawn an apple on a calendar everyday and shares with parents about the apple as well as the patient's feelings of the day. The participants of the family therapy are the patient, parents, and the therapists. The frequency of the model is once monthly. Each session consists of the 10 minutes pre-session, the 60 minutes family therapeutic session, and the 30 minutes post-session. It needs to be emphasized that the frequency of re-hospitalization definitely decreased after receiving therapy.Finally, positive transference was demonstrated in the high attendance rate, in their excitement in receiving the applause, and in their collaboration in presenting the keywords. With the aid of the family therapy, they have been almost free from affective symptoms, and the hostile dependent tie with their parents having been steadily improved. To prevent the bipolar patient against recurrent episode has been achieved in the five cases family therapy presented here.
