Abstract


This research reports challenges that are found in the inclusion of children with hearing impairment in music learning and presents how society accepts these individuals. It seeks to know how the deaf community sees music and finally to evaluate visual and technological elements in children's musical education. The challenges of the presented actions do not aim at a theory of comprehensive form or only statistical, but it seeks to propose a succinct discussion on the theme, to bring the other people to a reflection regarding the specific needs of these children.
