Moral Education for Visually Impaired Students at School Level: A Quantitative Study

Abstract

    Moral education is an integral part of the education system for visually impaired students. This study intended to seek moral education for visually impaired students at the school level. This study was quantitative and descriptive. The sample of the study included teachers of visually impaired students (N=81) from the schools of visually impaired students. A self- developed structured questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection. The validity of the instrument was assured by the expert opinion (N=03). Statistical data were analyzed with IBM version 23. The data were analyzed by applying descriptive statistical analysis techniques. Frequencies and percentages of the responses along with the Mann-Whitney test were performed to reach the conclusion. The findings of the study revealed that the maximum respondents of the study reported that 53% of teachers of visually impaired students are working on delivering moral education to students with visual impairment at the school level. However, 47% of the respondents experienced various challenges in delivering moral education to students with visual impairment. The study recommended policy-based moral education for students with visual impairment at the school level to make their firm foundation as responsible citizens.
