The angle concept is central to the development of geometry knowledge, which is important and functional for everyday life. In this context, the aim of this study was to examine the understanding of the angle concept of middle school students with learning disabilities (LDs) and hearing impairment (HI). The participants of this study, which was a case study, were identified with the criterion and convenience sampling methods. The participants were two students, one of whom with LDs and the other had a HI, each of whom was in grade 6. Data collected through individual clinical interviews with the students were analyzed using the cross-case analysis method. According to the findings of the study, the angle conception of both students was limited to the shape of the angle, and both students were aware of the concept of direction in the angle, but the student with the LD perceived the angle more statically, and did not have enough knowledge about the angle measurement or its unit. It was seen that the student with the HI confused the angle and angle measure, but was aware of the various angles according to their measures. |
