The text, based on the author’s own research, describes the case of a student with a hearing impairment in the context of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The main aim of the research was to answer the question: how did a person with a hearing impairment function during the pandemic and in what dimensions is the pandemic situation a crisis for the examined student with a hearing impairment? The article begins with an introduction to the discussed issues, then takes into account a short description of the studied student and the results of the analysis of the research material obtained with the use of a free-form interview. The article ends with conclusions and a summary. It should be emphasized that the described case can only be treated as a pilot study and preparation of the ground for further explorations of a wider scope.

Background. The aim of the study was to compare attitudes of children with hearing impair­ment towards dance lessons with the use of vibrating headphones, i.e. the Audiva High Pitch Training System to their attitudes towards physical education classes (PE) with elements of gymnastics, athletics, volleyball and basketball. Material and methods. The sample included 14 children aged 11.3 ± 1.0 years (min. 9 years, 8 months; max. 13 years, 5 months) with perceptive type of hearing impairment attending educational centers for deaf children in Poznan. The experimental group consisted of 8 female and 6 male pupils. Twice a week the children took part in dance lessons with the application of the Audiva High Pitch Training System – headphones which enable the subject to experience “bone hearing” through vibrations, and twice a week they attended PE classes. In order to measure the pupils attitudes towards PE lessons, the Baumgartner and Jackson Questionnaire was used. The measure­ments were made by single assessment of every type of PE classes (dance, gymnastics, athletics, volleyball and basketball). Results. Dance lessons with music and vibrating headphones had no higher emotional value for female students with hearing impairment than other types of PE classes. At the same time dance lessons were evaluated by girls as more intense and activating them more than the lessons of gymnastics. For male students dance lessons had lower emotional value than gymnastics, basketball and athletics. Boys also assessed dance lessons as less intense than the lessons of athletics. Conclusions. Obtained results proved that dance lessons had no higher emotional value for hearing-impaired children compared to other PE lessons. However, dance lessons with the use of vibrating headphones the Audiva High Pitch Trainig System may be a way to intensify PE for girls.
