Stephen Dolle presents on engaging the rhythms of the brain through drumming. He discusses how drumming can benefit cognition, movement, sensory integration, socialization, language development, and induce trance-like brain wave entrainment states. Dolle also outlines his research on how syncopated drumming patterns can aid cognition while unsyncopated patterns can impair it. He proposes applications of drumming in education, healthcare, and community building.

Psychological Affects of Hearing Loss in Teensschleefy
Understanding the causes of hearing loss is therefore important, but perhaps more important is understanding the psychological effects this can have on a teen. Only with a firm grasp of how hearing loss affects identity, social interaction and emotional well being can parents, teachers, speech therapists, psychologists and others hope to help teens adjust to their circumstances.

Patient Advocate Stephen Dolle's FDA Stamp Conference RecommendationsStephen Dolle
This is a paper of FDA STAMP Conference recommendations FDA patient advocate and CNS shunt user Stephen Dolle, which he wrote for this 1999 Conference in Bethesda, MD, a conference he was responsible for, yet was not invited to speak on panel, nor was his new solution oriented DiaCeph Test included in the conference. STAMP was held in part due to Dolle's 1996 FDA petition on anti siphon shunts, of which he was an affected user, and FDA upheld, but oddly withheld their Sept. 1998 ruling from the Federal Register. Dolle did everything he could possibly do to bring progress in CNS shunts, yet wasn't allowed.
You can read from his recommendations back in 1999 that he had a vision to bring progress in this area. Since 1999, CNS shunts have been plagued by widespread device failures, more notably programmable shunts.
CNS shunts users today face new risks from years of over use of CT scanning, which DiaCeph would have reduced. Some patients have had as many as 100 and 200.

Dolle oddly was not invited to speak or be a panelist, or to have his new mHealth DiaCeph Test included in the conference. In the years since, CNS shunts have suffered significant medical device and design failures, most of which have not been reported to FDA, which Dolle attributes to the cover ups dating back to this conference. As of 2015, Dolle has undergone 12 shunt operations, with the majority of these caused by failing CNS shunts that were never reported to FDA. The more your know!

Fluency disorder (Stuttering also known as stammering)Emmanuel Raj
Introduction, aetiology, Epidemiology, Clinical features, Theories, Scale, Diagnosis, Assessment, management of stuttering.
Fluency: continuity, smoothness, rate, and effort in speech production.
All speakers are disfluent at times. They may hesitate when speaking, use fillers (“like” or “uh”), or repeat a word or phrase. These are called typical disfluencies or non-fluencies (ASHA - American Speech-Language-Hearing Association).
Types of fluency disorders
Stuttering
Cluttering
Normal Non-fluency
Stuttering (Stammering) the most common fluency disorder, is an interruption in the flow of speaking characterised by specific types of disfluencies, including:
Prolongations unnatural stretching of a sound (e.g., “Ssssssssometimes we stay home”);
Repetitions of sounds, syllables, and monosyllabic words (e.g., “Look at the b-b-baby,” “Let’s go out-out-out”);
Hesitations usage of fillers (“like” or “uh”),
Blocks inability to initiate speech sounds/difficulty getting a word/pausing in between words
CLASSIFICATION OF STUTTERING:
DEVELOPMENTAL STUTTERING:
It is initially noted in children between three and eight years of age
Approx. 75 % of pre-schoolers with developmental stuttering spontaneously recover within 4 years.
Normal non fluency:
As children pass through normal language development they will be disfluent in certain period when compared to others.
ACQUIRED STUTTERING:
Neurogenic stuttering: usually follows a neurologic event, such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, or other brain damage.
stuttering occurs at the beginning of the words and the secondary behaviours are more obvious than with acquired stuttering.
Cause:
Cerebrovascular accident (stroke), with or without aphasia, Head trauma, Ischemic attacks (temporary obstruction of blood flow in the Brain)
Signs and symptoms:
Repetitions, Excessive levels of normal disfluencies , Extraneous movements
Psychogenic stuttering: It is rare and usually occurs in adults with a history of psychiatric problems following a psychological event or emotional trauma; there may be no other known aetiology.
Causes:
Depression, Emotional responses to traumatic events, Anxiety
Signs and symptoms:
Rapid repetitions of initial sounds
Epidemiology:
The prevalence of stuttering over the whole population was 0.72%, with higher prevalence rates in younger children (1.4–1.44) and lowest rates in adolescence (0.53).
Male-to-female ratios ranged from 2.3:1 in younger children to 4:1 in adolescence, with a ratio of 2:1 across all ages according to ASHA
In India it is estimated that approx. 10% of cases with communication disorders may have stuttering according to AIISH.
Aetiology:
A variety of factors may influence stuttering events, although the etiology of the condition is unclear
Possible contributing factors include cognitive processing abilities, genetics, gender of the patient, and environmental influences.

The Physical Development of the Young Child
Take a moment and think about a newborn infant--at birth, human infants are, essentially, completely vulnerable and helpless. Unlike many animals, they cannot walk, consume solid food, or manage even the most basic tasks for their own survival. This is the price we pay for our brains--we are born far less developed than many creatures. Over the course of a very short time, around two years, that helpless newborn learns to walk and talk, to manipulate objects, to engage and participate in the world around her.
This transition from a helpless newborn to a toddler or preschooler requires massive amounts of
learning
, fueled by rapid brain growth, sensorimotor development, and physical growth. The infant, from birth, uses his ability to perceive to learn and develop an understanding of the world around him.
TOPICS COVERED WILL INCLUDE:
Brain development during infancy and toddlerhood at the larger level of the cerebral cortex.
Learning through classical conditioning, operant conditioning, habituation and recovery, and imitation.
Dynamic Systems theory of motor development, highlighting cultural variations in motor development.
Gibsons’ Differentiation Theory of perceptual development.
The Development of the Brain
Brain development in the first two years of life is fascinating and awe-inspiring. Most of the physical growth of the brain occurs during the first two years of life. Neuroscience has shed light on the development of
neurons
and the
cerebral cortex
in particular. At birth, infants have approximately one hundred billion neurons. Relatively few neurons will be produced after birth. The newborn’s neurons are connected only tentatively. In the first years, essential connections between neurons form. Combined with understanding sensitive periods and the role of the environment, we have a much clearer picture of what is happening in the infant and toddler brain today than ever before.
Development of Neurons
Neurons are nerve cells in the brain that store and transmit information. In total, the human brain has between 100 to 200 billion of these neurons.

Neurons send messages from one to another through tiny gaps, called

Hearing Versus Listening
Describe how you learned how to listen! Please use between 300-500 words to make a complete description of this learned behavior. Did you learn to listen properly? Do you still listen the same way that you were taught as a child? Why or why not?
“Doctor Aunt”
by Eden, Janine and Jim.

.
A mother takes her four-year-old to the pediatrician reporting she’s worried about the girl’s hearing. The doctor runs through a battery of tests, checks in the girl’s ears to be sure everything looks good, and makes notes in the child’s folder. Then, she takes the mother by the arm. They move together to the far end of the room, behind the girl. The doctor whispers in a low voice to the concerned parent: “Everything looks fine. But, she’s been through a lot of tests today. You might want to take her for ice cream after this as a reward.” The daughter jerks her head around, a huge grin on her face, “Oh, please, Mommy! I love ice cream!” The doctor, speaking now at a regular volume, reports, “As I said, I don’t think there’s any problem with her hearing, but she may not always be choosing to listen.”
Hearing
is something most everyone does without even trying. It is a physiological response to sound waves moving through the air at up to 760 miles per hour. First, we receive the sound in our ears. The wave of sound causes our eardrums to vibrate, which engages our brain to begin processing. The sound is then transformed into nerve impulses so that we can perceive the sound in our brains. Our auditory cortex recognizes a sound has been heard and begins to process the sound by matching it to previously encountered sounds in a process known as
auditory association
.
[1]
Hearing has kept our species alive for centuries. When you are asleep but wake in a panic having heard a noise downstairs, an age-old self-preservation response is kicking in. You were asleep. You weren’t listening for the noise—unless perhaps you are a parent of a teenager out past curfew—but you hear it. Hearing is unintentional, whereas
listening
(by contrast) requires you to pay conscious attention. Our bodies hear, but we need to employ intentional effort to actually listen.

We regularly engage in several different types of listening. When we are tuning our attention to a song we like, or a poetry reading, or actors in a play, or sitcom antics on television, we are listening for pleasure, also known as

Dalcroze Eurhythmics & Classroom Management in Today’s Developmentally Divers...SeriousGamesAssoc
According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, 13% of the American Public School population (ages 3 to 18 years) receive special education services. These services could be a self contained, or inclusion class. Perhaps it’s “pull-out” services in a resource room for small group instruction. It could be speech, occupational, or social skills therapies. Regardless, roughly 6.5 million children report to school every day and qualify for these services.
I studied method of teaching music called Eurhythmics at The Juilliard School in Manhattan and have spent the last fifteen years working with varied populations of students. Jaques Dalcroze, the Swiss educator and composer who created Eurhythmics, did so out of a need to teach students in a changing social and technological world. Eurhythmics is a method that focuses on the physical aspects of music. Dalcroze preferred to call his methods “games” and “exercises” as opposed to “lessons” or “instruction”. The tenant of his method is “All musical ideas reside in the body.”
My program TumbleJam™ is inspired by my Eurhythmics studies. I have been using TumbleJam in self contained schools of autistic and physically disabled students. I’ve also taught in inner-city public schools as well as alternative high schools for inner-city students labeled at-risk and with behavioral classifications. Regardless of the population or age, the response is overwhelming. Students love the physical and social aspects of the games and exercises. There is no technology — but rather use live music and games to enhance emotional, musical, social, and creative expression. My session is going to demonstrate how these games bring students together, create a positive learning space, allow for individual awakening and create an understanding of the group dynamic. Participants will be up and moving around as well as improvising and laughing.

All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

10. Where does music & Rhythm come From? 1. Time, space, movement, planetary, and gravitational influences (proprioception) on us – my theory on basketball. 2. Sounds of Earth, nature, birds, animals, accepted sounds and meaning (Jaws), development of language 3. Mimesis - Vocal intonations, expression, imitating others, entertainment, communications 4. Thought intent (pre-frontal cortex) – thought, communication, and expression; rhythm use likely began in mating rituals, social celebrations, war, games, etc. 5. Man made sounds, musical instruments, equipment, formation of established sounds eg. knock on door, rhymes and popular songs, Jaws theme * Two primary forms of music today: primal low-brain expression, forebrain story-telling Stephen Dolle/Engage the Rhythms of your Brain www.dollecommunications.com 8 10/5/2011
11. Evolution of Drum Communications Animals and humans learned that when sound is ↑ in volume or tempo it is closing in and/or is ↑ in importance, calling attention, where slow or melodic sound tends to be friendly. Fast or repetitive sound tends to be forceful or threatening. Augmented sounds are appealing, and make us curious and/or happy. Human sounds and drums evolved to disseminate information. Sight, sound, and body movement patterns, along with words, eventually formed human language we know today. Emotional “intonations” in words is termed “prosody.” Since drum rhythms come from the “body,” they activate the “prosody” center of the brain in Wernicke’s area, and language centers in the pre-frontal cortex. Rhythmic patterning and imitation is termed “mimesis.” Correlation of audible patterning in brain waves to improved cognition: Mozart Effect Modern day sports and music keep us connected to our past. Stephen Dolle/Engage the Rhythms of your Brain www.dollecommunications.com 9 10/5/2011
12. Examples of musical rhythm At a very young age, we are able to recognize sound as: Coming toward us. Moving away from us. Talking to us. Posing a question? Calling out! Frightening us. Or appealing to us. Bass & Clapping BWE Exercise: heightens “theta level” brain waves Walk and movement mirror heart beat of 1-2, 1-2, pushing off from one foot, land/turn on other. Marching and running are 1-2, 1-2 and 1-2-3-4. Our brains (and body) have the unique ability to recognize and think in terms of patterns. Take these random letters/no’s: “XEZAEI34SSC.” Say as a pattern, letters/no’s in bold emphasis: “X E Z (pause) A E I (pause) 3 4 S S C” Stephen Dolle/Engage the Rhythms of your Brain www.dollecommunications.com 10 10/5/2011

15. Participants play structured and free-form rhythms w/ goal of reaching a common mindset, or brain wave entrainment (BWE), enabling group learning and tasking. Led today by trained facilitators & guidelines. To succeed in life, you must be “engaged” in what is happening around you, develop strategies to help your mind stay focused and engaged in what you are doing, rising above adversity and distraction. Group drumming is the platform where you learn to engage the rhythms of your brain, and engage your work and others around you. Modern Uses (see Modern Uses file) What is a Drum Circle?

22. Drumming for the Brain: six key Areas Cognition/proprioception: my discovery was intuitive w/ hand/finger movements to sustain mental focus during driving, akin to Ricky Henderson base-stealing, broad IQ health benefits. Fingers, hands & body rhythms boost brain focus and mental output Movement/coordination: my discovery was intuitive, my choreographed movements by taping on hips, legs, counters, and engaged surfaces, play to move, SCI workshop, today use of basketball (likely aid autism). SI Therapy (In cases of SPDs): results were found in my 2002 SI study, was not drumming at the time, made therapeutic audiotape, later learned that drumming was aiding my SI tolerance, also benefits in learning (likely aid autism) Socialization: team-building, corporate, family, youth, community Language Development: learning of foreign language, non-verbal communications BWE/Trance States: team-building, health & disease mgt., behavioral modification, integrative medicine, mental health Stephen Dolle/Engage the Rhythms of your Brain www.dollecommunications.com 15 10/5/2011

26. Steam3 class discussion -- october 6, 2011 Circadian Rhythms (sleep wake cycle) are regulated by the Pineal Gland in the Brain. Circadian Rhythms follow an approx. 24-hr cycle and are found in each living cell. Music follows mathematics. Instruments + Arrangement + Variables = Balanced Sound Your Skills today are often due to Genetic Predispositions (GP), skills that are passed on from earlier ancestors, dating back almost 1M years. Modern Civilization mostly deals with last 150-200 years. Discover your GPs thru Drumming and similar Free-Thinking activities.

27. A Drum Circle is a conversation: People (and students) are attracted to things that are Real and Cool. This Principal drives Participation and Dynamics within the Drum Circle. Drumming is Trusting your Instincts, Connecting with Others, Following the Cool, Engaging your Intent, Vocal Intonations, and Tempo (Rhythm). Students Entrain to their Teacher’s Intent, Tempo, Vocal Intonations, and Brain Waves. Know these and Engage your Students. Introduce Rhythmic Games& Participation. 10/5/2011 Stephen Dolle/Engage the Rhythms of your Brain www.dollecommunications.com 20 Steam3 drum circle on CAB front lawn Stephen Dolle demonstrates hands on play and brain wave entrainment (BWE) in this drum circle.
28. Need for spd “sound emissions Std” for Audio & machinery in Public Places: disability & triggers Audio & noise emissions cause behavioral and medical sequelain 10-20% of population, exacerbating health status & disability. Need for Standard/Algorithm to rate Audio & Machinery Noise covering: - volume - EQ - rhythmic pattern & syncopation - pitch frequency variation - and percent of wave form at peak EQ. Sound emissions can exacerbate & trigger medical sequela, behavioral outbursts, and disability in persons w/ SPDs and hyperacusis.
