Communicative competences and learning competences in pupils with hearing impairment in relation to visual memory and attention

Abstract

Communicative competences and learning competences in pupils with hearing impairment in relation to visual memory and attention. – This paper is dealing with the evaluation of communicative competences and learning competences in chosen pupils with hearing impairment who prefer the visual motor form of communication. These competences were assessed by teachers who had been working with these pupils over a long period of time. To collect the necessary data, we used a questionnaire containing the so-called respond scales. Then, the gained answers were compared with the results of a test focusing on visual memory and attention in order to see if there is any connection between these two closely linked areas.
