Tema študijskega obiska je Raziskovanje in vrednotenje izobraževalnih sistemov zagluhe in naglušne otroke in mladostnike. Zato je študijski obisk namenjen vsem strokovnjakom, ki delujejo na podrocjugluhote: tako uciteljem, vodstvenim delavcem kot predstavnikom iz nevladnih organizacij, ki delujejo na podrocjuizobraževanja gluhih. Udeležencem obiska želimo predstaviti izobraževanje gluhih na vseh ravneh: od predšolskevzgoje pa do zakljucka srednje šole. Rahlo se bomo dotaknili tudi problematike univerzitetnega študija. Prikazatiželimo tako prakso ustanov, namenjenih le gluhim kot sistem integracije gluhih v redne izobraževalne sisteme. Drugidel študijskega obiska je za nas prav tako velikega pomena: želimo primerjati lastne izkušnje z izkušnjami udeležencevter spoznati njihove izobraževalne sisteme za gluhe. Poudariti moramo, da imamo pogosto, kljub nacionalnim razlikam,razlicnosti izobraževalnih sistemov v Evropi, skupne cilje ter podobne probleme. Osredotociti se želimo na evropskeizobraževalne prakse izobraževanja gluhih ter poiskati pot k boljši opismenjenosti gluhih, boljšemu znanju nacionalnihjezikov ter nacionalnih znakovnih jezikov. Pricakujemo, da se bo študijskega obiska udeležilo tudi nekaj gluhih oseb, kise ukvarjajo s tem podrocjem, spremljali pa jih bodo tudi njihovi tolmaci. Prav tako bodo pri organizaciji ter izvedbištudijskega obiska sodelovali gluhi ucitelji iz našega zavoda ter drugi predstavniki gluhe skupnosti v Sloveniji. Edenizmed ciljev tega obiska je tudi izgradnja informacijske mreže šol za gluhe v Evropi.
