This study compared functional gain for infants and children with bilateral conductive hearing loss who were initially fit with traditional bone-conduction devices then probressed to BAHA with Softban
...d and finally to unilateral BAHA implants.
Students need to know and be able to discuss the facts and labels around their hearing. In this activity students transfer information from their most recent audiogram onto a graph that illustrates b
...oth hearing levels and speech sounds. Encourage discussion of students' challenges associated with having a hearing difference.
Handout with information on possible impact on understanding language, speECH-, social, and need for educational accommodations and services. For 16-25dB or minimal hearing loss.
Students
with hearing loss do not know what they don't hear unless specifically
taught. These instructional activities for primary and secondary student
assist students as they learn how
...their hearing loss impacts understanding
speech in different listening conditions.

This interactive Google Slides activity asks students to evaluate 4 listening situations (presented in pictures and short descriptions) and rate them on a scale according to listening difficulty. Afte
...r rating the situations, students are tasked with providing an explanation of why each situation is difficult or easy to hear. This would be a great 'stepping off' activity to begin a unit on coping skills or to evaluate how a student perceives different situations and why/how he/she feels about his/her listening abilities.There is very little digital learning activities available for remote learning today. This tool that asks students to rate situations that are difficult or easy to hear encourages introspection about a student's hearing loss. Asking student to explain why the situation is easy or hard to hear encourages them to evaluate their own listening skills and how advocacy can improve even the most difficult situation.Learning Objective:The student will be able to compare listening situations by rating them on a scale from easy to hear to hear. The student will be able to describe why a specific listening situation is difficult or easy to hear, giving support for their answers.
The ability to successfully advocate for needs related to hearing requires an ability to recognize different types of support and how to access them. Competency in other areas is required before this
...goal can be addressed. Students will rate photos of situations according to ease of listening and analyze situations for ways to improve communication and access.
