This semi- experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of virtual instruction in students with hearing loss‏.‏Using a pretest-posttest control group design, 24 fifth grade elementary students were selected by multistage random sampling and then assigned in to two equal size experimental and control groups. The virtual instruction for science was administered to the experimental group in 3 weeks (60 minutes, three times per week). During this period the control group received routine program. before and after the experiment, the two groups were assessed by an achievement test in three parallel forms‏.‏ANOVA showed that virtual instruction could increase both learning and recalling in the experimental group.Virtual instruction can increase the amount of science learning and recalling  can be applied as an effective teaching method for students with hearing impairment in educational settings.
