This is for people, teachers who teach children with disability on their ears. This was made to give awareness to the persons mentioned above, in order for them to give right and just treatment to every child who has hearing impairment.
Hearing impairment is a disability that affects a child's educational performance, whether permanent or temporary. It is similar to deafness but does not require a total inability to hear sound. Hearing impairment causes difficulty in speech, writing, and acquiring knowledge due to limited auditory feedback. This can impair language development and the ability to communicate normally, negatively impacting social development and educational achievement. Several professionals can help children with hearing impairment, including audiologists, hearing loss teachers, speech-language pathologists, and interpreters. Early use of visual communication methods like sign language can help reduce the possibility of language delays.
The document provides an overview of understanding hearing impairment. It defines hearing impairment and discusses causes, classifications, and characteristics. It also describes rehabilitation programs including assessment, educational options, and communication methods like sign language. Visual gestural communication methods like sign language, finger spelling, and simultaneous communication methods are explained. Tips for communicating with those who have hearing impairments are provided.
It talks about visual impairment, definition, types, CATEGORIES OF VISUAL IMPAIRMENT, Identification of Visually Impaired Children, Causes of Visual Impairment, TEACHER’S APPROACHES TO ELIMINATE THE VISUAL DEFECTS, INSTRUMENTS FOR VISUALLY IMPAIRED, Prevention of Visual Impairment, Plus Curriculum
Sensory impairment occurs when one of the senses like sight, hearing, smell, touch or taste is not functioning normally. Visual impairment limits eye or vision function. Hearing impairment prevents receiving sounds through the ear and can range from difficulty hearing faint sounds to not distinguishing any sounds. Multisensory impairment involves a combination of visual and hearing loss, intensifying the impact. Common smell and taste disorders include anosmia, ageusia, hyposmia and hypogeusia which reduce or distort odors and tastes and can affect quality of life.
The document discusses individualized education programs (IEPs) which help meet the educational needs of students with special needs. An IEP is not a label or extra burden, but rather a tool to provide appropriate services. It benefits students by determining their needs, teachers by providing guidance, and parents through communication. An IEP is prepared by a team and contains elements like the student's current performance, long and short-term goals, and an evaluation plan. Objectives should be specific, measurable, and help students progress from their present level to their annual goals.
This document discusses hearing impairment, including the different types, causes, symptoms, and treatments. It provides details on:
- The three main types of hearing impairment - conductive, sensorineural, and mixed.
- Common causes like earwax buildup, infections, abnormalities.
- Symptoms include muffled sounds and difficulty understanding speech.
- Treatments depend on the cause and severity, and may include removing earwax, using hearing aids, or cochlear implants.
Helen Keller was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. She overcame her disabilities with the help of her teacher Annie Sullivan and became an author, activist, and advocate for progressive causes. Deaf-blindness is a condition characterized by simultaneous hearing and visual impairments that cause developmental needs beyond programs for deaf or blind individuals alone. It affects about 45,000-50,000 people in the US through various causes. Education and resources focus on early intervention and customized learning strategies to address unique communication and access challenges.

This document discusses deafblindness, which is defined as simultaneous hearing and visual impairments that cause severe communication and developmental needs. The most common cause is Usher Syndrome, a genetic condition characterized by hearing loss and deteriorating vision. It describes the three types of Usher Syndrome and how they differ in severity of symptoms. It also discusses other potential causes like Congenital Rubella Syndrome. The document outlines important considerations for educating and providing early intervention to deafblind children, including strengthening their strongest sensory channels and using tactile methods like Braille, fingerspelling, and vibrations for communication.
Persons with multiple disabilities have two or more serious disabilities that cause severe educational needs. They have complex instructional needs due to interactional effects of their disabilities. Multiple disabilities include cognitive, physical, sensory and health impairments requiring extensive supports. Accurate assessment is challenging due to limitations, so interviews regarding adaptive behaviors are more informative. Legislation requires public education and related services. Current trends favor inclusion with necessary supports when possible, though some controversy remains.

A hearing impairment is defined as a hearing loss that impacts a student's ability to process language and perform academically, requiring special education services. There are different types and degrees of hearing loss that can be present from birth or acquired. Hearing loss affects language development and potentially educational achievement, though not intellectual ability. Several educational approaches exist to teach students with hearing loss, including using sign language, speech reading, or a combination. Assistive technologies and adaptations to music education can help students with hearing loss participate and develop skills.
Deaf blindness is a condition characterized by little or no useful sight and hearing. It is a heterogeneous group affecting people with varying degrees of visual and hearing impairment. Deaf blindness can be present from birth, develop later in life, or be acquired through genetic conditions, infections, accidents or other causes. People with deaf blindness may exhibit difficulties with communication, behavior, cognition, physical abilities, and require specialized education that emphasizes parental involvement and partnership with professionals.
Visual Impairment Information and Teaching StrategiesMauro Garcia
This document provides information about visual impairment and resources for students with visual impairments. It defines visual impairment under IDEA as an impairment affecting educational performance even with correction. It outlines early intervention and special education services available. Signs of visual impairment include eyes not focusing together or unusual bumping into things. Types include strabismus and retinitis pigmentosa. The Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired offers academic and life skills programs to support students' needs. Tips are provided for parents, teachers, and differentiating instruction for students with visual impairments.
The document discusses multi-sensory approaches to learning. It describes how multi-sensory learning involves using multiple senses like visual, auditory, kinesthetic and tactile. It provides examples of visual, auditory, tactile and kinesthetic learners and activities that appeal to each type. The document also discusses Dale's Cone of Experience which illustrates how different types of instructional methods and media can impact learning, ranging from more abstract verbal symbols to more concrete direct experiences.
Hearing impairment refers to any level of reduced hearing that affects educational performance. Total communication incorporates all means of communication including signs, gestures, fingerspelling and speech. Cued speech uses handshapes and placements to make mouth movements visually distinct. Assistive devices like FM systems, hearing loops, and augmentative communication devices help people with hearing loss communicate by amplifying sound, transmitting signals, and generating or displaying speech. The oral approach focuses on developing listening and spoken language skills through amplification and visual cues without using sign language.
Individuals with hearing impairments have diverse needs as deafness primarily impacts language development and subsequent intellectual and social skills; they are assessed through audiological evaluation, cognitive and communication testing to determine the degree of hearing loss and appropriate educational supports like sign language interpreters, amplification devices, and modified instructional strategies to promote their inclusion in regular classrooms. Hearing loss is classified based on severity from minimal to profound impairment to inform special education placement and services needed.

Hearing impairment is defined as a sensory deficiency that prevents a person from receiving sounds in their normal form. It can be caused by factors like rubella, heredity, prematurity, meningitis, ear infections, and environment. Students with hearing impairment may have difficulties with speech, language, reading comprehension, and processing oral information, especially in noisy settings. There are two main types of hearing loss - conductive, caused by outer/middle ear issues, and sensorineural, caused by inner ear or nerve problems. Assessments include audiology tests of brain waves, eardrum movement, and speech recognition. Educational approaches include oral communication focusing on speech, manual communication using signs, and total communication combining both.
Models of early intervention for studentsRojeen Zara
Educational programs and approaches for students with intellectual disabilities (ID) and learning disabilities (LD) aim to break learning tasks into smaller steps, provide concrete demonstrations, and give immediate feedback. Models of early intervention include center-based programs, home-based programs, and programs in regular childcare settings. As students age, programs include integrated preschool settings, segregated preschool settings, Head Start, resource room placements, special class placements, and homebound programs. Educational approaches emphasize concrete demonstrations, breaking tasks into steps, providing assistance and feedback, teaching life skills, and collaborating with parents and staff.

Hearing impairment is defined as any hearing loss that affects educational performance but is not deafness. There are four categories of hearing loss based on location: conductive, sensorineural, mixed, and central. Common signs are difficulty hearing or understanding speech. In school, students may struggle with subjects involving listening, note-taking, discussions, and videos. Teachers and parents can help by designating note-takers, using assistive technology, ensuring proper seating, and not underestimating intelligence due to impairment.

The document provides information about deafness, including:
1) It discusses the different levels of deafness from mild to profound and their decibel ranges.
2) It outlines some of the challenges deaf individuals may face educationally, such as difficulty hearing in class or pronouncing words correctly.
3) It provides tips for communicating with and helping deaf individuals, such as getting their attention appropriately, speaking in full sentences, and ensuring good eye contact when signing.
Speech disorders involve disrupted normal speech that can include stuttering or lisps. They are classified based on the sounds a person can produce, from easily produced sounds to those that cannot be produced. Causes include neurological disorders, brain injury, hearing loss, and physical impairments. Treatment involves speech therapy, though some cases require medical attention. Speech disorders can negatively impact social development and self-esteem in children if they experience bullying.
Language disorders involve problems processing linguistic information and can affect grammar, semantics, and other aspects of language. They can be receptive, involving comprehension, expressive, involving production, or both. Common examples are specific language impairment and aphasia. Receptive language disorders impair understanding of input while expressive disorders affect output. Symptoms vary but can include difficulties with sentences, vocabulary, instructions, and frustration. Other types of language disorders discussed are sensory impairments, apraxia, dyslexia, dysgraphia, stuttering, autism, and ADHD.
This document summarizes intellectual disability and related neurodevelopmental disorders. It defines intellectual disability as significantly subaverage intellectual functioning and deficits in adaptive functioning that onset before age 18. The document outlines diagnostic criteria from the DSM-5 and ICD-11 and describes features of mild, moderate, severe and profound intellectual disability. It lists causes, elements of clinical evaluation, treatment considerations and prevalence statistics. The document also summarizes common communication disorders like language disorder, speech sound disorder, childhood-onset fluency disorder, social communication disorder and aphasia. Related conditions involving sensory impairments, learning disabilities and speech disorders are briefly outlined.
Blockage of the acoustic passage or damage to the inner ear can cause hearing loss. Hearing loss can be conductive, sensorineural, or a combination of both. It can also involve the central auditory nervous system. Hearing loss can be unilateral (one ear) or bilateral (both ears). The degree of hearing loss ranges from slight to profound. In the Philippines, hearing loss is the second most common disability. Causes include genetics, infections, environmental factors, and certain medical conditions. Signs of hearing loss include cupping the hand behind the ear, straining to listen, watching speakers' faces, and difficulty following instructions. The major effect is on language development and related areas of intellectual, social, and educational
Hearing loss can range from mild to profound and can be present at birth or acquired later in life. It affects students' language development and educational achievement. Several approaches are used to educate students with hearing loss, including oral, manual, and bilingual-bicultural methods. Assistive technology like hearing aids, FM systems, and closed captioning can help students access sound. Music education can benefit students with hearing loss by incorporating visual and tactile elements. Adaptive strategies in teaching music include emphasizing rhythm over pitch and using visual cues. Music therapy supports linguistic, behavioral, academic, and social goals for students with hearing loss.
Speech and language disorders in children.pptxPhono Logix
Speech and language disorders in children can take several forms:
Stuttering is when the flow of speech is disrupted through repetitions, extensions of sounds, or difficulty pronouncing words. Apraxia affects motor skills needed for speech production. Children may have trouble forming sounds or abnormal speech rhythm and pitch. Common disorders include stuttering, lisps where 's' sounds come out as 'th', messy speech with too many filler words or sounds, and speech delays where children do not attempt verbal communication. Seeing a speech therapist early is important to diagnose and treat these disorders to reduce the chances of long-term problems.

The ear is the part of the body that is used for hearing. Information about the
world is acquired through hearing. Anybody that hears nothing around him, no
matter how loud the sound is should be seen as having ear problem. It is a condition
or rather an impairment which is a physical, observable condition of tissue that can
affect the function of the organ system of which that tissue is a part. Hearing
impairment is a disability that can affect the effective functioning of the total
personality no matter the period of onset. Among the earliest attempt to define
hearing impaired was the one made by the committee of Nomenclature of the
conference of Executives of American schools for the deaf (1938) which says
that the deaf are those people in whom the sense of hearing is non-functioning for
the ordinary purpose of life. According to them also, the hard-of-hearing can be
defined as those in whom the sense of hearing although defective is functional with
or without a hearing aid.

The document discusses understanding hearing impairment and provides information on several key topics:
1. Over 360 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss, including 32 million children. Early detection and management of hearing loss in infants is important.
2. Hearing loss can be classified based on age of onset, language development impact, location of impairment in the ear, and degree of loss. Causes include genetic factors, illness, injury, certain drugs, and age-related hearing loss.
3. Hearing impairment can impact vocabulary development, language skills, socialization, learning, and academic achievement. Deaf individuals are visual learners and develop concepts differently than those without hearing loss.

Gemma Wean- Nutritional solution for Artemiasmuskaan0008
GEMMA Wean is a high end larval co-feeding and weaning diet aimed at Artemia optimisation and is fortified with a high level of proteins and phospholipids. GEMMA Wean provides the early weaned juveniles with dedicated fish nutrition and is an ideal follow on from GEMMA Micro or Artemia.
GEMMA Wean has an optimised nutritional balance and physical quality so that it flows more freely and spreads readily on the water surface. The balance of phospholipid classes to- gether with the production technology based on a low temperature extrusion process improve the physical aspect of the pellets while still retaining the high phospholipid content.
GEMMA Wean is available in 0.1mm, 0.2mm and 0.3mm. There is also a 0.5mm micro-pellet, GEMMA Wean Diamond, which covers the early nursery stage from post-weaning to pre-growing.
2. Hearing impairment or disability refers to
the reduced function or loss of the normal
function of the hearing mechanism.
The impairment or disability limits the
person's sensitivity to tasks like listening,
understanding speech, and speaking in the
same way those persons with normal
hearing do.
HEARING IMPAIRMENT OR DISABILITY,
DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING
3. When the condition occurs before the child
learns to talk, deafness is prelingual.
Deafness is postlingual when it is acquired
after the child has learned speech usually at
the age of two.
A person who is deaf cannot use hearing to
listen, understand speech and communicate
orally without special adaptations mainly
in the visual mode.
HEARING IMPAIRMENT OR DISABILITY,
DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING
4. A person who is hard of hearing has a significant loss of
hearing sensitivity but he or she can hear sounds,
respond to speech and other auditory stimuli with or
without the use of a hearing aid. He or she is more like
a hearing person than one who is deaf because both of
them use audition or listening to auditory stimuli in the
environment, unlike a deaf person who relies more on
visual stimuli.
HEARING IMPAIRMENT OR DISABILITY,
DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING
5. The affected part of the ear is one basis for
classifying hearing impairment. A conductive
hearing loss occurs in the outer and middle ear
thereby blocking the passage of the acoustic
energy. The blockage may be caused by
abnormal growths or complications of the outer
or middle ear.
Another basis for classifying hearing impairment
is its being unilateral or present in one ear only,
or bilateral or present in both ears.
CLASSIFICATION OF HEARING
IMPAIRMENT
6. Degree of Hearing Loss
Normal
Decibel Loss 0 - 20 dB Resulting Impairments
Slight 27-40dB Faint sounds and distant
conversations are difficult
to hear. With a hearing
aid, the student can
attend regular school.
Mild 41-55dB As much as 50 percent of
classroom conversations
are missed. Limited
vocabulary and speech
difficulties may result.
Moderate 56 - 70 dB Loud conversations can be
heard. Defective speech,
language difficulties and
limited vocabulary may
result.
TABLE 3. SEVERITY OF HEARING LOSS
AND RESULTING IMPAIRMENTS
7. Severe 71-90dB Hearing is limited to a
radius of one foot, enough
to discriminate loud
sounds. Defective speech
and language and severe
difficulty in hearing
consonant sounds may
result.
Profound 91 -and above Sounds and tones cannot
be perceived. Vision
becomes the primary
sense of communication.
Speech and language are
likely to deteriorate.
8. Some of the observable behavioral and learning characteristics of
a child with hearing impairment are as follows:
• Cups hand behind the ear, cocks ear/tilts head at an angle to catch
sounds.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PERSONS WITH
HEARING IMPAIRMENT
9. Has strained or blank facial expression when" listening
or talked to.
10. Pays attention to vibration and vibrating objects
Moves closer to speaker, watches face especially the mouth and
the lips of the speaker when talked to.
11. Less responsive to noise, voice, music and other
sources of sounds.
Uses more natural gestures, signs and
movements to express self.
Shows marked imitativeness at work and play.
Often fails to respond to oral questions.
12. Furthermore, a person with with hearing impairment has the
characteristics of:
- Less responsive to noise, voice, music and other sources of
sounds
- Uses more natural gestures, signs and movements to expres
self.
- Shows marked imitativeness at work and play.
- Often fails to respond to oral questions.
- Often asks for repetition of questions and statements
- Often unable to follow oral directions and instructions
- Has difficulty in associating concrete with abstract ideas.
- Has poor general learning performance.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PERSONS WITH
HEARING IMPAIRMENT
13. 1. Educational Replacement
-A special education teacher assists the regular teacher in seeing to
it that the students receive as much instruction as their hearing
classmates. Some special education programs employ an interpreter
in the regular class who translates the verbal activities into signs
and gestures to enable the student to follow the lesson.
2.Support Services
-Communication accessibility is provided by sign language and oral
interpreters inside and outside of the classrooms. Computer-aided
instruction (CAI) reinforces the knowledge and skills learned in the
different subject areas.
14. 1. Promote the acceptance of the student with hearing
impairment in the regular class. Welcome the student
to your class.
2. Be sure that prescribed hearing aids and other
amplification devices are used.
3. Provide preferential seating.
4. Increase visual information.
5. Minimize classroom noise.
6. Modify teaching procedures.
7. Have realistic expectations.
