ABSTRACT

This study is aimed to seek out effective methods for linking vocational education at special school for students with hearing impairment and employment. For this study, I performed a survey by mailing out questionnaires aimed at teachers who teach vocational curricula in 16 special high schools of 23 special schools for students with hearing impairment nationwide. The results of this study were as fellowing: First, as for the organization and current operation of vocational education at special school for students with hearing impairment, the total 23 vocational curricula were opened and operated in 16 special schools for student with hearing impairment, and most schools did not consider the features of community or realizability in appointing curricula under the pretext of the lack of special teachers for vocational curricula or insufficient related facilities and instruments. Second, in curricula focused on the education selection of high school, it needs to develop curricula irrelevant to the preparatory function for employment in the basic curricular as a way of improving problems in association with vocational education and employment. Third, as for the constitution of a collaborative system between a special school for students with hearing impairment and a special vocational institute that I proposed in this study, a special education institute performs a special technology education for maintaining school functions and solving problems of the lack of experts, facility, and devices.
