Basic Requirements for a Better Inclusion of Children with Hearing Impairment

The aim of inclusion is to create a learning environment that respects diversity, makes all students feel valued, removes barriers to their learning and gives them the support they need to reach their full potential. Inclusion is not limited to students with disabilities. It is about including all children, regardless of their differences, in the process of education and participation. Children with hearing impairment require visual aids for better inclusion. There are several basic pre-inclusion and post-inclusion requirements for better inclusion of these children. Pre-inclusion requirements refer to creating an environment that prepares all individuals, especially students with special needs, to participate equally in education and society. Post-inclusion requirements refer to the necessary improvements and resources that ensure that the needs of all individuals are met in an inclusive environment. These basic requirements are presented in this article.
