Q

what is emergent literacy? list 3 examples

A

precursors to actual reading of words - the things that have to happen prior to actual reading/decoding of words

  • print concepts: understand that print has meaning
  • phono awareness: awareness of sounds
  • early writing

Q

possible impact of language impairment on emergent literacy?

A

semantic deficit: have to have the word in their vocabulary before they can make sense of it in a book. even if a teacher is reading a story, the child won’t be able to understand a particular word if it’s not in his vocabulary

Q

phonological awareness can be broken down into what 2 things? explain each

A
  1. phoneme awareness: can hear the word and break it down into it’s sounds.
    - ex/ cat = c a t

a combination of both conductive and sensorineural loss

82
Q

degree of hearing loss determines what?

Q

some factors that impact the impact that a hearing loss might have? (3)

A
  • age (earlier identify, the better)
  • parental involvement
  • severity and type of HL
86
Q

explain how HL can cause impairments in language domains

A
  • phonology: difficulty hearing sounds, thus understanding and producing them
  • pragmatics: don’t hear so don’t respond to peers, don’t have confidence in spoken language
  • semantics: they’ll call a sun an “un” and no one else will understand them
  • syntax: ex/ can’t hear /s/ will impact use of plurals
87
Q

what has been the paradigm shift in hearing loss intervention?

A

we used to wait and see to intervene, now the focus is on early detection and intervention

88
Q

explain neuroplasticity and how it relates to HL intervention

A
  • the brain/auditory system can make new connections despite damage or disease with early stimulation
  • the earlier we provide input, the better our results
89
Q

what are communication modalities? is there controversy with which to use?

A

manual or spoken language

- YES

90
Q

how does audiological management happen?

A

cochlear implantation

91
Q

explain deaf culture and the controversy surrounding it

A
  • communities of people who are deaf who sign and don’t use spoken language
  • if a deaf person has a hearing child in these communities, will their child learn to speak?
92
Q

Listening and Spoken Language (LSL) is an approach for kids with HL that focuses on what?

Q

with LSL, we look at a child in terms of what? give an example of this

their hearing age

- ex/ child born with hearing loss. at 4 mo they get a hearing aid, so at 8 mo, they’re hearing age will only be 4 mo

94
Q

is there research to support the use of “baby signs”? explain

NO - there’s nothing that says it’s harmful to use sign with your baby, but there’s not strong evidence that shows that it makes a child smarter/improves cognitive skills

95
Q

parents of children with HL often have feelings of what?

A
