Zusammenfassung:	Online course design and delivery rapidly expanded due to COVID-19. The impact on Deaf/Hard of hearing (D/HH) learners since the pandemic is unknown. In this prepandemic qualitative study, however, ninety-three (93) D/HH online students participated in a survey, from which nine (9) participated in a focus group interview to share their experiences in their online classes. The results describe both the positive influences and the challenges affecting this population in mainstream online classes. A forthcoming article will study postpandemic perspectives to further guide online course design and delivery for D/HH learners.
