AB - [Purpose] The purpose of this study is to investigate the awareness and demands of deaf school teachers regarding deaf students with multiple disabilities. [Method] A focus group interview was employed as the research method. Six deaf school teachers participated in this study. [Results] First, the ratio of deaf students with multiple disabilities continually increased over time. There are many difficulties in educating deaf students with multiple disabilities due to the lack of methods for diagnostic evaluation and placement, large individual differences between students, lack of educational materials, and teachers' lack of knowledge related to the deaf with multiple disabilities. Second, to educate the deaf with multiple disabilities, deaf schools are making efforts to provide human and material support by operating classes separately, and they are providing specialized services to improve functional ability. Third, for the future-oriented education of the deaf with disabilities, it is necessary to set the methods for the evaluation and placement of deaf students with disabilities, and to train and place qualified teachers through teacher preparation and training courses. In addition, the curriculum modification and a collaborative approach between experts were suggested. In order to improve the communication skills of the deaf with disabilities, it is necessary to strengthen visual communication, use various communication modes, and teach functional communication. [Conclusion] This study can be used as basic data for the development of interventions for deaf students with multiple disabilities in the future.
