Description
The second edition of Spoken Communication updates and expands upon the first edition, including brand new chapters on Assessment and Cochlear Implants, and a greatly expanded instructional strategies chapter with more suggestions for eliciting specific speech sounds and more suggestions for older students. Spoken Communication supports the instructional best practice of using a multidisciplinary team approach to develop spoken communication skills. (Teachers, speech therapists, parents, school district personnel and the STUDENT all work together within the classroom setting to establish, develop and support spoken communication skills.) The text works from the perspective that spoken language development is possible regardless of the type and degree of hearing loss or the educational program's philosophy. This user-friendly book is written so that any member of the team can utilize its information. Chapters include: producing a tool bag of strategies, hearing & tests, development of speech production, amplification devices and Cochlear implants, teaching to the child's strength, assessment, and teaching & carryover strategies. The text is full of pictures, forms, springboard discussions, experiments, and practical ideas for use in school or at home.
