Description

Understanding and Maximizing Auditory Potential

Have you wondered how to implement listening and spoken language strategies as an itinerant or in a TC classroom?  Are you maximizing the auditory potential of your students? Are you concerned about students who are struggling with listening and speaking?  We can help!  Using case studies, you will be able to evaluate your current practices regarding your students’ auditory potential. Identify key factors to determining auditory potential, creating an auditory environment, and implementing listening and spoken language strategies in your classroom or itinerant work.   After exploring formal and informal assessments, you will practice writing appropriate IEP goals for students in Mainstream and Total Communication classroom settings and you’ll have an opportunity to practice strategies for promoting and maximizing audition for these students as well.  Expect to be engaged with the content and able to revise your own practice as a result.

13 LSLS Credits have been awarded for this training.  Remember that temperatures can vary in the meeting rooms – bring a sweater.

Geared for parents and professionals working with students who are deaf and hard of hearing who have knowledge of hearing loss, hearing aids, and cochlear implants.
