As condições para aprendizagem dos conteúdos escolares por parte do aluno com deficiência auditiva têm se mostrado ineficientes. Assim, um estudo que, partindo de um modelo de análise e descrição de repertórios verbais (ler, escrever, ouvir e falar) que busque avaliar precisamente esses desempenhos em indivíduos com deficiência auditiva pode ser relevante. Este trabalho teve como objetivo caracterizar envolvidos em leitura e em escrita em crianças com deficiência auditiva nas séries iniciais do ensino fundamental, visando detectar as potencialidades e necessidades desses alunos em relação à compreensão de palavras da Língua Portuguesa. Participaram deste estudo vinte crianças, com idades entre seis e 12 anos sendo 12 delas usuárias de implante coclear e oito usuários de AASI. O diagnóstico foi realizado pelo ProLeitR, um software de avaliação e de ensino de leitura composto por três tipos de tarefas: seleção, composição e vocalização. As tarefas de avaliação foram apresentadas em blocos constituídos de 15 a 18 tentativas que avaliaram diferentes relações envolvidas na leitura e na escrita. A avaliação foi realizada em três sessões com duração média de vinte minutos cada. As relações apresentadas foram: de identidade que envolvia as relações figura/figura (BB) e palavra impressa/palavra impressa (CC); de nomeação, composto por nomeação de figura (BD), palavra, sílaba ou vogal (CD); de ditado, composto por palavra ditada/letra manuscrita (AF) e palavra ditada/composição (AE); de cópia de palavra impressa por letra manuscrita (CF) e de palavra... / Psychology, more precisely, the Behavior Analysis has shown concern in developing learning technologies to enable autonomous and efficient way of learning subjects with or without special educational needs.

Media in die onderrig van die gehoorgestremde leerlingSnyman, Darelle 03 April 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. / Hearing-impaired pupils differ from normal-hearing ones in that they have neither language nor speech. The result is an incapability to communicate. To overcome this immense problem, hearing-impaired children are educated with great empathy. The teachers of these children need to have patience, dedication and the capability to implement any available means to fulfil the special needs of their pupils. Media gives the teacher the ways and means to introduce the real world and its components to the child, starting with the wearing of a hearing aid. The hearing aid allows the child to step out of silence into a world of some sound. The education of the hearing-impaired relies on the use of media (that is: printed material, the overhead projector and transparencies, the computer, video, television, music, hearing aids and real objects). Each of the ,above mentioned, fulfils a special need in the education of the hearing-impaired - it brings about more effective teaching and learning. It gives the hearingimpaired the chance to be part of the normal living life .

Teachers’ perspectives of giftedness among students who are deaf or hard of hearingBibby, Mary Ann W. 11 1900 (has links)
This qualitative, exploratory study describes and interprets the perspectives of giftedness of twelve teachers who work with Deaf and hard of hearing students in a variety of educational settings across Canada. Using in-depth interviews, the resulting twenty-five hours of audio tapes were transcribed and analyzed line by line using procedures suggested by Giorgi and Marton. The supporting literature came from four major areas: (a) the construct of giftedness; (b) giftedness among the disabled population; (c) giftedness among the Deaf and hard of hearing population; and (d) theory related to teachers' knowledge and perspectives. Analysis of the data resulted in presentation of the findings from two perspectives: teachers' understandings of the meanings of giftedness and the process through which these teachers appeared to have gained their knowledge.
Teachers' practical knowledge was portrayed in detailed stories of forty-three hard of hearing or Deaf students whom they believed to be gifted and in the way they described the students' achieving, learning and behaving in classroom interactions. The teachers' conceptually oriented knowledge was described as they reflected upon the meanings they associated with giftedness. The teachers' knowledge of giftedness was compared to that found in the gifted literature at both the practical and theoretical levels. Through interpretations derived from daily interactions with students and drawing on knowledge gained from personal experience, these teachers constructed perspectives of giftedness. The process that emerged illustrated the teachers' use of comparison groups as ways of gaining insight about the students and teachers' ideas about the use of labeling. The teachers' perspectives suggest that Deaf and hard of hearing students are gifted in ways similar but not identical to hearing students. The abilities of these students appear to be different from others in the "handicapped-gifted" literature and their needs are unique. The teachers' more conceptually oriented ideas also appeared to be similar but not identical to theoretical definitions of giftedness. The findings support collaboration between teachers and researchers to explore ways in which teachers come to recognize and understand gifted students. Future research must also explore the special educational needs of students who are dealing with the effects of having a hearing loss and being gifted. / Education, Faculty of / Educational and Counselling Psychology, and Special Education (ECPS), Department of / Graduate

Problematika tvorby e-learningových kurzů pro handicapované / Problems of creating e-learning courses for handicappedŠtěrba, Ladislav January 2012 (has links)
The thesis discusses the problems of e-learning for handicapped. It concerns creation of electronic courses for visually and hearing-impaired students. The main target is to create and publish a sample course for this groups of students. The course shows practical employment of methods and recommendations for creating study materials easily accessible for handicapped. Those methods and recommendations are described in the theoretical part of the thesis. The creation and publication of the sample course is completely carried out using freely available software applications and services. The operating procedure, advantages and limits of this approach are described as well as further possible development of the courses for handicapped. The thesis could then serve as one of the first theoretical and practical handbook for creating this type of courses. The first part sketches out the specifics of visually and hearing-impaired and various types of teaching these handicapped. In the second part of the thesis the rules and recommendations for a correct creation of an e-learning course for handicapped are explained. Principally the technical rules but also some pedagogical suggestions are focused. The last part of the thesis shows the method of creating an e-learning course for handicapped in the e-learning system Moodle using freely available audio-visual applications and publication services.

Realising access to inclusive education for the hearing-impaired learner in Nigerian primary schoolsUmeh, Ngozi Chuma January 2017 (has links)
The hearing-impaired learner as part of a historically segregated and disadvantaged group experiences discrimination within Nigeria’s general education system and the socio-political environment. In this study, the focus is on how hearing-impaired learners can access inclusive education, using normative ideas of equality that could inform the understanding and interpretation of the non-discriminatory clause in the Nigerian constitution. Emphasis is on advancing thoughts that are normatively open to the inclusive equality needs of the hearing-impaired in accessing primary education, in order to inspire and be capable of altering existing discriminatory conditions prevalent within Nigeria’s general education system.
The study uses a range of analytical skills to probe the inclusiveness of existing arrangements regarding inclusive equality in education for hearing-impaired learners in Nigeria. More broadly, the study makes use of qualitative analysis. However, the study also employs a reasonable part of fieldwork which necessitated the use of quantitative data analysis in order to determine the number of semi-structured questionnaires to be distributed to schools. More generally, the study utilises the social model approach to disability and neo-natural law perspectives as qualitative interpretive tools for appraising understandings of inclusivity in education for hearing-impaired learners. From ideas inspired from the social model and neo-natural law, the study adopts the prescriptive and directive approach as a directing element in the evaluation of the responsiveness of law, policy and practice towards securing inclusive equality in education for hearing-impaired learners.
Additionally, the study employs some aspects of comparative analysis. The purpose was not so much to compare, but to create awareness regarding the equality and non-discrimination agenda in other jurisdictions. Against this backdrop, the Canadian and South African jurisdictions were used. The study contemplates that positive lessons could be learnt from these jurisdictions and mistakes can be avoided. Throughout, the study highlights the hidden nature of law, policy and practice in relation to hearing-impaired learners, which consequently demand the application of practical reasonableness and ideas of substantive justice in the making and implementation of rules and policy. The study situates inclusivity as a flexible approach that should present each learner with an opportunity to access and make choices regarding placement options as a matter of self determination. In the final analysis, the study argues for the establishment of a non-discriminatory educational system, where hearing-impaired learners are taught in a language that is accessible and comprehensible and with which the learner is familiar right from home at the early age of schooling. The study considers the utilisation of accessible and comprehensible language an operative part of achieving substantive equality in education for hearing-impaired learners. / Thesis (LLD)--University of Pretoria, 2017. / Centre for Human Rights / LLD / Unrestricted

Teaching mathematics to oral hearing impaired learners in an inclusive environmentLe Hanie, Linda January 2017 (has links)
Inclusive education came into the spot light with the World Conference on Special Needs Education: Access and Quality, held in Salamanca, Spain in June 1994. The problem investigated in this study is how teaching oral hearing impaired learners in an inclusive school affects the classroom practice of the mathematics teacher as teaching-and-learning expert. In this study, the term hearing impaired refers to learners with a bilateral, moderate to profound hearing loss who have hearing aids and/or cochlear implants. These learners communicate orally, in other words, they have developed spoken language and do not communicate using sign language. The study focused on the classroom practice of three teachers in three different phases, namely the Intermediate Phase (Grade 4-6), the Secondary Phase (Grade 7-9) and the Further Education and Training phase (Grade 10-12) and explored how they teach mathematics to Hearing Impaired (HI) learners in an inclusive school. A qualitative research approach was followed and the research design was an exploratory case study. The data was collected in an inclusive school that includes oral HI learners which was purposefully chosen due to its model of inclusion where oral HI learners attend the same classes and lessons as their hearing peers. Three data collection instruments were used, namely semi-structured interviews, lesson observations and documentation analysis. The data was analysed deductively according to the themes reflected in the conceptual framework. The conceptual framework was based on ten practices mathematics teachers should apply when teaching HI learners (Easterbrooks & Stephenson, 2006), but through the lens of the mathematics teacher as teaching-and-learning expert and the language factors in teaching mathematics to HI learners. The research revealed that not all teachers who teach at an inclusive school truly understand the concept of inclusion and that continuous training is a pre-requisite for inclusion to be successful. / Dissertation (MEd)--University of Pretoria, 2017. / Science, Mathematics and Technology Education / MEd / Unrestricted

A survey of hearing loss in the special education classrooms of Vancouver School District 37Folsom, Richard C. 01 July 1970 (has links)
In order for the mentally retarded population to achieve maximum benefit from rehabilitation efforts, it is essential that a complete picture of their abilities and disabilities be obtained. Consequently, the identification of hearing loss is an integral element in any diagnostic procedure. Vancouver School District 37 has directed increased attention toward speech and language training for children in the special education classrooms for the mentally retarded; however, differential hearing diagnosis has been inadequate or totally lacking. In order to more efficiently treat this problem, it was felt that a comprehensive investigation into the incidence and types of hearing loss of this population would provide a basis for program design. To adequately survey the previous investigations in the literature it was advantageous to divide them into categories according to likeness of criteria used in defining "hearing loss." In this survey, a heterogeneous sample of 212 retarded subjects ranging in age from 6 years, 8 months to 19 years, 9 months was audiometrically tested at four frequencies: 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, and 4000 Hz. The retarded subjects encompassed MI levels I through IV on the c1assification system developed by the American Association on Mental Deficiency. Tests were administered at eight locations within the Vancouver School District 37 which offered adequate test environments. The criterion for hearing loss in this survey was a loss of 20 dB or more in two or more frequencies in either ear. The audiometric procedure used in both air and bone-conduction testing was the revised technique of Newhart and Reger (1945, revised 1956). Operant procedures were designed after Stewart (1970). Two examiners were used, and ten test scores of each correlated at approximately .93 using the Pearson Product- Moment Correlation. Thirty-eight of the 212 subjects had hearing losses of 20 dB or more in two or more frequencies in either ear. This number established an incidence of 17. 9 per cent for this population. The present data indicate, in general, that the incidence of hearing loss is greater among the more severely retarded than among the less retarded. The audiometric data depict a general trend toward a decrease in hearing loss incidence with increasing .age. Of those with hearing loss, slightly more males (53 per cent) than females (47 per cent) were represented. The pattern established by the current survey revealed a concentration of conductive losses at lower age levels and a concentration of sensori-neural losses at the higher age levels. The special education classrooms of Vancouver School District 37 reveal a three to six times greater incidence of hearing loss than among the normal classrooms of the district. The concentration of conductive losses at lower age levels leads to a recommendation that hearing levels be screened each year up to age 12.
