The Effects Of Teachers’ Attitudes On Education Of Learners With Hearing Impairement In Regular Schools In Kabarnet Division, Baringo District, Kenya.

ABSTRACT

The research was carried out on the attitude of teachers towards the

inclusion of learners with hearing impairment in regular primary

schools, This was because the feelings of most regular primary school

teachers that these learners affect and lower the academic

performance of their schools. Therefore these learners are forced to

repeat classes or dropout of school. It is due to this that the learners

with hearing impairment do not perform well in regular schools.

The researcher used the quantitative approach to collect the data. The

questionnaire was used to collect the data and later on the data was

tabulated. The data was out into percentages and analyzed. Out of

the 45 teachers sampled only those who have attended special training

feel that the learners should learn along with the others who do not

have hearing problems.

Teachers should make necessary modifications in their teaching

methods to accommodate the learners with hearing impairment. The

ministry should avail appropriate learning resources to regular schools.

Teachers lack appropriate resources required to assist these learners.

The teachers lack skills to teach these learners with special needs so

they develop negative attitude and feel that they should be placed in special schools rather than in regular schools.
