ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to investigate degrees of satisfaction of the hearing impaired college students in order to provide appropriate learning support for them and to improve their satisfaction. Three college students with hearing impairment participated in this study, with whom we attempted to identify how to improve the direction and satisfaction of appropriate support in teaching and learning for hearing impaired college students through individual and in-depth interviews. The results of this study are as follows. First, as for the lecture-related learning support for college students with hearing impairment, the subjects received contents of lectures without difficulty when sign language interpretation was provided during the lectures, while those studying natural sciences had relatively much difficulty in following lectures. In terms of contents besides lectures, all the subjects frequently felt difficult in communication. The students in consequence wanted a wide range of interpreter services provided by their college at national level in all the activities at school. Second, as for the supports of lectures, learning, and communication, all the three participants were mostly satisfied with the items. They felt particularly satisfied with sign language and shorthand interpretation, followed by electronic attendance-absence recording systems, need-basis scholarship, and convenience of signing-up courses. However, despite their contentment in varied learning support in school, all the three participants showed extremely lower satisfaction with professors and instructors, presenting three reasons—lack of diversity in lecture contents, shortage of interest and attraction in lecturing, and failure to understand basic traits or culture of students with hearing impairment.
