A PBS Reading Rockets special, "A Chance to Read," featuring a segment called "Signs of Literacy". The segment about cueing includes an interview with Dr. Daniel Koo, a cognitive scientist who is deaf and grew up with cued English and now also uses American Sign Language for communication. The segment also focuses on the Intermediate District 917 Program for Learners Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing at Gideon Pond Elementary in Burnsville, Minnesota and its bilingual model utilizing both cued/spoken English and American Sign Language. While the segment features some brief interviews and clips of staff and students, the real "stars" and focus of the segment are a student named Jedidiah Figueroa, and his mother, Janet Figueroa.

The short film, "Breaking the Code: Unlocking the Cue-rriculum", was created as a commemorative film of Dr. Cornett and as an educational documentary. It was premiered at the NCSA's 40th Anniversary Gala in 2006 by producers Jennifer Bien and Alina Mills.
