Assessing the Adaptation of Persian Books in the First Grade of Integrated Courses with the Needs and Capabilities of Students with Hearing Impairments

This research was conducted with the aim of investigating to which degree the content of the first-grade Persian textbook in inclusive courses is adapted to the needs and abilities of students with hearing impairment. This research has been conducted using a qualitative approach and content analysis method strategies. Then, using the method of reflective analysis of Gall et al, the strengths and weaknesses of the content of the mentioned books were identified. Guba and Lincoln's indexes have been used to measure the validity of the findings. The Research findings confirm that the content of writing skills and Persian textbooks in the year 2020-2021, in the first grade of primary school, cannot meet the needs of students with hearing impairment in the "fundamental capabilities of functional emotion" desired by the integrated approach of evolutionary growth, especially the "creation and representation of ideas". From the analysis of the obtained data, it can be concluded that the mastery of the ability to "create and represent ideas" improves speech and the development of the vocabulary domain and thus strengthens the reading and writing literacy of people with hearing impairment and since this ability is the basis for learning other sciences, so the weakness in the ability to"create and represent ideas" can be a threat to people in the target community and put them in a failure cycle in education.
