EDU 234C DHH: Auditory-Verbal Practicum
This is an advanced course in auditory-verbal therapy, building on the theory and practice from the prerequisite courses, EDU 235A DHH: Auditory-Verbal Foundations, and EDU 235B DHH: Auditory-Verbal Principles. The goal of the course is to allow students to practice an auditory-verbal diagnostic teaching model with two or more children and their families over a course of several sessions. Students administer assessments in phonetic and phonologic speech receptive and expressive language, and auditory skills to children with hearing loss. From the assessments, students choose targets in each area write lesson plans, choose appropriate materials and integrate goals in each area into a content-based theme, using literature as a core. Parent skills are also assessed to plan for parent participation, guidance and education in the lab using adult learning theory principles and parent coaching models learned in previous courses.
