EDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENT: THE DEAF VERSUS THE HURDLE

The goal of educating an individual is to determine the achievement of stated educational objectives. However, there have been recorded challenges faced by learners with special needs particularly those who are Deaf during and after taking such assessment. This challenge arises from language deprivations which characterized the condition of loss of ability to perceive and responds to auditory. verbal stimuli. Unfortunately, learners who are Deaf have though strived to excel but have most times being underperformed or underachieved in their attempts of such educational assessments. Although, previous studies have identified language barriers and attitude of assessors to the writing skills of the Deaf but there is yet a sustainable means to which these barriers can be expunged. Therefore, this article presents an exposition of how the learners who are Deaf can scale through the hurdles and barriers to expected results after undergoing an educational assessment.
