Author(s): Susan Vicente D Villarente
Abstract: Many institutions worldwide have advocated inclusive education through international and local legal bases. However, higher education needs more advancement since many students with special needs do not proceed to higher education. Hence, many teachers need to be trained to accommodate them, making handling such cases difficult. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the challenges in handling deaf students and their strategies to address them. This study is anchored in the theoretical framework of Oliver’s (1990) disability theory. The study revealed that the challenges of handling deaf students are communication barriers, technical issues, and teaching and accommodation difficulties. Their strategies are presentation accommodations, response accommodations, timing and scheduling accommodations, modification, and patience and understanding. Therefore, an action plan should be implemented to improve inclusive education.
