| dc.description | Many researchers have proven that mobile technologies hold a great potential for significantly improving second language learning namely English. However, although the myriad of studies have focused on the use of mobile technologies in education of students in primary, secondary or even tertiary level, the issues among the hearingimpaired students have been sidelined. The digital gap may be wider as many of them could not benefit from the integration of technology in education. Their condition has always limit them to facilities and development which includes opportunities to education. Thus, this study is conducted to explore hearing-impaired students’ acceptance towards the usage of using mobile technologies in learning English as a second language (ESL). Basic qualitative approach was employed and the data was collected using in-depth interview. Ten secondary hearing-impaired students from four different states were involved in this research. Qualitative data were analysed using Burnard’s method of analysis. Findings revealed that the participants agreed mobile technologies assisted them in learning ESL based on its usefulness and the ease of use. Mobile technologies had been identified as the tools that facilitate the English language learning, easy and practical, elevate the student’s motivation and accommodate the student’s need. However, they also highlighted several challenges that might hinder the success on the usage of mobile technologies in learning ESL such as the limited internet coverage, difficult English words and long sentences, lack of exposure towards the usage of mobile technologies in learning, the distraction from social media and online games as well as limited access on the sign language. This research provides the Ministry of Education as well as ESL teachers the understandings of the factors that influence the hearing-impaired students' attitude and intention for using mobile technologies and the capability to build strategies and policies that incorporate these factors into planning and designing phases of mobile learning implementations for English as a Second Language (ESL) learning purposes among the hearing-impaired students. The findings of this study are crucial in ensuring these hearing-impaired students not to be left behind by this current approach in learning.,Master in Education | |
