Popis: 沖縄県内高等教育機関^ⅰを訪問し、障がい学生支援の現状と課題を聴覚障がい学生支援を中心に調べた。現状として障がい学生、聴覚障がい学生の在籍は増加傾向にあり、障がい学生支援への意識は変わりつつあることが分かった。課題として、中小規模の大学が多いため一つの大学ですべての支援活動が出来ないこと、障がい学生の在籍が途切れると取り組みが終わってしまうこと、そして、取り組みにばらつきがあり障がい学生の在籍に偏りがあることが明らかになった。また、障が い学生支援コーディネーター^ⅱの育成や待遇の課題も挙げられた。今後の展望として、各高等教育機関が大学の特色に合わせた支援体制を整備し、ネットワーク形成と相互交流の必要性が見出された。
This paper attempts to grasp the situation about support systems for students with disabilities, focusing on deaf or hard of hearing students by visiting institutions of higher education in Okinawa prefecture. It is found out that the number of students with disabilities are increasing and the support systems for their students are changing. It is also found out that there are some issues as follows: 1. They can’t provide all kinds of support menus all the time because of their small or mediumsized institutional scale. 2. The support systems for students with disabilities will not last long and they are up to the enrollment of those students. Once the enrollments of the students with disabilities stop, they stop those kinds of supporting efforts either. 3. The supporting efforts for the students with disabilities vary among respective institutions of higher education and the number of disabled students are concentrating in several institutions. In addition, it is also pointed out that the labor condition and educational systems of students with disabilities services coordinator staff are also problems. For future prospects, it is necessary to construct supporting systems according to their characters of those respective institutions and to build networking systems among those institutions in Okinawa prefecture.
