Abstract

A descriptive survey research approach was chosen for the investigation. The method of inquiry was chosen since the researcher employed a questionnaire to collect information from respondents. The population includes 41 undergraduates with hearing impairment at Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education, Owerri, Imo State and 7 lecturers. The study sample consists of thirty-four (34) out of 41 students with hearing impairment who were registered for regular /evening programmes and, seven (7) lecturers who taught them remotely. The data gathering tool was a structured questionnaire adapted from Okoro (2015) and termed Digital Platforms for Remote Teaching of Deaf Students (DPRTDS). The instrument was validated for face and content validity. The questionnaire was administered through the help of three research assistants. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Statistics (PPMC) was used to test hypotheses at the 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed a substantial association between preferred digital platforms and perceived effectiveness of remote teaching/learning .However, no positive relationship was observed between gender and preferred digital platforms among students with hearing-impairment at Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education, Owerri. In accordance with the findings, it was recommended, among other things, that students be consulted concerning their preferred digital learning formats and instructors be given incentives and timetables for developing, preparing, and uploading instructional contents
