German term or phrase: Absehen

Hallo,
ein Zeugnis einer Gehörlosenschule. Dort wird in Deutsch neben dem Sprachverständnis, schreiben, lesen, etc.

auch das "Absehen" beurteilt.

Nehme an, an den Lippenbewegungen das Wort zu erkennen, weil die Schüler ja gehörlos sind, also ohne Gebärdensprache.

vielen Dank!
