DEVELOPMENT OF CREATIVE ABILITIES OF CHILDREN WITH HEARING IMPAIRMENT THROUGH LEARNING TO PLAY THE KOMUZ

Abstract

This article examines the role of the komuz as a musical instrument in the development of creative abilities in children with hearing impairments. In the context of inclusive education, the study analyzes the importance of musical training, the use of visual and tactile methods, as well as the development of aesthetic taste, motor skills, and social skills in children through learning to play the komuz. The study proposes practical methods and effective forms of instruction.

In addition, the article substantiates the specific features of musical perception in children with hearing impairments and the necessity of applying alternative teaching methods. It is noted that the vibrational properties of the komuz allow children to perceive music through sensation. It is also emphasized that the use of visual instructions, body movements, and elements of sign language during lessons increases the effectiveness of learning.

The study considers inclusive models of teaching the komuz, based on which methods promoting the development of children’s creative activity are analyzed. Practical examples illustrate the impact of approaches such as improvisation, rhythmic exercises, and ensemble performance. Furthermore, it is highlighted that learning to play the komuz helps strengthen children’s self-confidence and supports their successful social integration.

In conclusion, it is stated that the proposed methodological approaches can be widely applied in the system of inclusive education and represent an important tool for developing the creative potential of children with hearing impairments.
