Abstract

Background: Hearing impairment hinders a child's ability to perceive sounds. A hearing-impaired child is one who experiences partial or total hearing loss due to the malfunction of some or all auditory mechanisms, rendering them unable to utilize hearing in daily life (Iswari, 2017). Objectives: To analyze the community's understanding regarding the application of the phonetic placement method for children with hearing impairments. Methods: Descriptive analysis was employed to examine the data by describing or illustrating the collected information exactly as it is, without intending to draw broad conclusions or generalizations (Sugiyono, 2022). Results: This activity focused on community members who have children with hearing impairments in the village. Conclusion: One consequence of hearing impairment is articulation disorder; articulation disorder refers to difficulty in producing speech sounds, such as letters, words, syllables, and sentences. Keywords: Phonetic Placement, Hearing Impairment, Surakarta.
