Educational Psychology / Unit 8 EDP 0746 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Hearing Loss
Captions available
The idea
Students may be hard of hearing or deaf, and mild loss is often overlooked, so teachers observe over time; instruction uses residual hearing, visual cues and inclusion, such as classmates learning a few signs in American Sign Language.
In practice
A student who often asks "what?" and watches faces closely may have mild hearing loss.
Where people slip
Mild loss can pass for inattention.
