Doświadczenia edukacyjne głuchoniewidomych uczniów w codzienności szkolnej: komunikat z badań

Abstract

Introduction: In the field of social sciences and humanities in Poland, academic research on the problem of deafblindness is undertaken sporadically. Deafblindness is regarded as a difficult subject of scientific research. Research aim: The main aim of the research is to bring closer and understand how deafblindness affects the educational experience of people affected by it. The article describes the experiences of the implementation of the obligation to educate in segregated and non-segregated institutions. Research method: The narrative interview technique was used, which seemed to me to be the best way to get to know the social world of deafblind people. The purpose of the interview was to obtain information on the basis of conversations with people with varying degrees of simultaneous hearing and sight damage, which would provide a basis for the reconstruction of the temporal order, as well as the sequence of events that make up the individual stages of a deafblind person's biography. Results and conclusions: The educational experiences of the respondents are neither clearly positive nor exclusively negative. In this research, it is deafblind people who rediscover their own educational experiences, reporting what has changed in them as persons, methods of evaluation, relations with others.
