TI  - What Kind of Information Is Provided to Families of Children with Hearing Loss in Early Education Practices?
AB  - It is known that children with hearing loss may experience delays in language development and other developmental areas compared to their peers, depending on their disabilities. Early diagnosis, benefiting from hearing technologies, and participation in early education environments with their families are very important in minimizing these delays that children with hearing loss may experience. The purpose of this research is, therefore, to examine the information presented to families in early education practices with children with hearing loss and their families. The data of this case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was collected through observations, semi-structured interviews, documents, and products. The data was analyzed inductively. The findings showed that the information presented to the families is transmitted in a way that is based on continuous interaction, includes open and responsive interactions, encourages the family, and that feeds and expands cyclically from the previous information. It was also found that the educator received information about the history of the child and family, device use, daily routines, and that the families needed information about their children's development, coping with behavioral problems and future expectations. Additionally, that the educators ensured that the families received information on the use of hearing aids, language support and communication skills, enrichment of daily routines, and additional deficiencies were revealed. In early education implementations, materials such as toys, picture cards, story books, song texts were used and forms for informing families were used for registration as a product of the information presented.
