Collaborative Teaching in Magnetic Field Lesson for Students with Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH)

Abstract

- The aims of this study to find out how to teach the magnetic field lesson to students with deaf and hard of hearing (DHH). The study used a single-subject research approach with A-B design (baseline and intervention) in senior high school Banjarmasin. The subject of this study consisted of three students with DHH. The results of the study revealed that the magnetic field lesson can be mastered by students with DHH.
