Current descriptive study attempted to explore the effects of assistive devices on the learning of hearing impaired students. A sample of 200 hearing impaired students was selected to identify the assistive devices that are more in use by hearing impaired students. All of the assistive devices commonly used for hearing impairment were included in the study to explore the effects of each on the learning of students with hearing impairment. The mean difference in the learning of students suggested that assistive technologies are overall assistance for the students with hearing impairment and there is no substitute to these devices that could assist them in such a quite differentiated manner. The role of high tech assistive devicesas well as low tech devices has been highlighted prominently. The parents of hearing impaired students were also the part of study and found satisfied with the use of assistive devices for their children. It is divulged that there is a need to reduce the cost of assistive devices to be used by the students with hearing impairment.  \nKey words: Hearing impaired children, assistive technology, assistive learning, and assistive devices.  \n*Assistant Professor, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore  \nEmail: [drdrchaudry@gmail.com](drdrchaudry@gmail.com)  \n** University of the Punjab, Lahore-Pakistan  \n*** Bluebell Inclusive School, Lahore  \nIntroduction  \nThe products or equipments used to develop and enhance the functional competencies of disabled people are known as Assistive Technology. Assistive technology (AT) provides aid of adaptive technology to individuals with disabilities (UNESCO, 2006).The latent array of assistive technologies is unbelievably great including high and low tech assistive devices and equipments. High tech assistive devices functioned electronically while low tech assistive devices are manually operated (Dede, 1998, p.75) . In different types of assistive technology, low tech is realized to be an effective tool for the persons with disabilities. Low tech is cheap to buy and operate. It supports persons with disabilities to the extent that reduce the cost of hospitalization (Posse & Mann, 2005) .  \nFrom last many years, the persons with disabilities are using assistive technology and its use is rapidly increasing in educational, vocational and frivolous activities. Professionals are introducing special need people with a range of assistive devices and services after proper screening of individual needs and technology specifications for persons with disabilities (Cook & Hussey,1995 , p.24) . Before choosing assistive devices many considerations are taken into account like what will be the effects of technology in body and what will be the effects of body on technologies (Hersh & Johnson, 2003) .  \nAssistive technologies help individuals to spend their lives independently (Hameed & Bano, 2009) . “Technology has opened many educational doors to children, particularly to children with disabilities. Alternative solutions based on technology are accommodating physical, sensory, and cognitive impairments in many ways” (Dede, 1998, p.73) . Selected and useful solutions have been adapted to the individual’s needs of disabilities. User centered approaches has been taking flexibility to help out the persons with disabilities (Penaud, Mokhtari & Abdulrazak, 2004) .  \nAssistive devices are more useful and with the help of these devices “desired sound is sent to the listener’s ears directly with improved signals to background noise ratio and reduce effects of poor room acoustics and diffused sounds”(Yi-Lin, 2005).The cost of assistive technology decre","cbCainNRG8PDoKiB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainNRG8PDoKiB","pdf",399275,17,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Review of Literature","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the study on hearing-impaired students?\",\"answer\":\"The research aims to explore how assistive technologies affect the learning of hearing-impaired children and to highlight the competence of assistive equipment in supporting them.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the sample determined and what was it used for?\",\"answer\":\"A sample of 200 hearing-impaired students was selected to identify the assistive devices more commonly used and to examine the effects of each device on learning.\"},{\"question\":\"What types of assistive devices does the study emphasize?\",\"answer\":\"The study emphasizes both high-tech assistive devices, which function electronically, and low-tech devices, which are manually operated, noting their roles in supporting learning.\"}]","Learning through Assistive Devices - A Case of Students with Hearing Impairment | PDF",43]
