Sex Education in Special Schools: Integration of Sexual Education and Hearing-Impaired Learners' Curriculum

Sitihardiyanti Yusuf, Dzikrinah Nur Faizah, Saarah Dharmawan Tiara Dewi

Abstract


Adolescents with hearing impairments face challenges in accessing information related to sexual education and self-protection. Limited access to communication and high use of social media increase their risk of sexual misinformation. This study aims to examine the implementation of sexual education in Special Schools (SS) through a mix method approach that combines qualitative and quantitative methods. The results of the study show that the level of students' understanding of sexual education is still low, with an average score of 45%. In addition, the integration of sexual education in the curriculum is still not optimal, especially due to the limitations of teaching materials and teacher training. Therefore, this study recommends an educational module that integrates sexual education with a curriculum that supports the special needs of students with hearing impairments

Keywords
