“…Children and adolescents with hearing loss as well as their parents and teachers believe that in a successful inclusion of learners with hearing impairments, it is important to consider some factors that are: child-related, family involvement and use of technology (for example, use of hearing assistive devices for auditory stimulation), focusing on inclusion and specifically school and educational factors (teacher training and preparedness, school settings, instructional strategies and classroom management for student engagement). The significance of other factors such as communicating with specialists (specially getting information from medical professionals about cochlear implants and using assistive technologies) and the assessment of support technology, which relates to the assessment of resources such as visual supports, digital boards, and representations with images (Rosa & Angulo 2019;Collair 2001;Eriks-Brophy et al 2006) is highlighted too. One of the goals in inclusive education is to facilitate academic and social success for students with hearing loss.…”

The third type of session aimed to teach children to build a dialogue with each other by expressing their emotions and requests with the simulation of certain situations [ 24 ]. During these sessions, the respondents were divided into pairs.…”

“…The lack of clear educational policies within schools negatively impacts the academic achievement of students with cochlear implants. According to Alegre de la Rosa and Villar Angulo, [49] policies related to the educational placement of children with cochlear implants in mainstream schools are unclear. Some studies have addressed the importance of implementing educational policies and providing qualified educational programs to train teachers dealing with students who have cochlear implants in the classroom.…”

“…Some studies have addressed the importance of implementing educational policies and providing qualified educational programs to train teachers dealing with students who have cochlear implants in the classroom. [49,50] Davenport and Alber-Morgan [50] asserted that even though "cochlear implant technology is advancing rapidly, there is still a lack of capacity at the school level in meeting the needs of children using these devices." (p. 42) Therefore, having clear educational policies is important to support children with cochlear implants in enhancing their language and promoting communication, social skills, and emotional and educational performance within the school environment.…”
