Study Notes
Course Overview
- This course focuses on the fundamental aspects of audiology, covering the anatomical and physiological aspects of the ear.
- The course aims to provide theoretical understanding.
- The course helps students understand the various structures and functions of the ear, including the anatomical terms.
Course Format
- The class includes 90% lectures across 12 sessions.
- 2 exams (midterm and final) and 1 makeup session are scheduled.
- Collaborative and individual learning comprises 10%, with weekly quizzes.
Course Management
- Attendance is mandatory (10% of the grade), with 3 points deducted per absence. Excessive absence (3+ times) results in an automatic "F" grade.
- Assignments (15% of the grade) consist of weekly quizzes in the form of fill-in-the-blanks.
- Exams (midterm 30% and final 45%) consist of multiple choice, true/false, and short answer questions.
- Three or more unexcused absences result in an automatic failing grade (“F”).
- Three or more late arrivals are considered equal to one absence.
Weekly Course Schedule
- Week 1: General Introduction
- Week 2: Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology
- Week 3: Overview of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Auditory System
- Week 4: The External Ear
- Week 5: Middle Ear
- Week 6: Functional Anatomy of the Cochlea
- Week 7: Cochlear Physiology I
- Week 8: Midterm Exam
- Week 9: Cochlear Physiology II
- Week 10: Structure and Function of the Auditory Nerve
- Week 11: Central Auditory Nerve System
- Week 12: The Auditory Cortex and Subcortex
- Week 13: The Efferent System / Vestibular System
- Week 14: Makeup Session
- Week 15: Final Exam
Class Rules
- Start class on time and adhere to basic etiquette.
- Avoid using mobile phones during class.
- Any instances of cheating on exams or presentations, or excessive absences (3+ times) will result in an automatic failing grade (“F”).
- Three or more late arrivals are considered equal to one absence.

Further Information
- Course materials for each week will be announced in advance on Mondays.
- A class representative will be chosen during the first session.
Introduction to Auditory System
- Auditory system processes sound from the peripheral auditory system to the central auditory system.
- The outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear are all parts of the peripheral auditory system.
- The brain is part of the central auditory system.
Auditory System Structure
- The outer ear includes the pinna and ear canal.
- The pinna collects sound waves and directs them into the ear canal.
- The size and shape of the pinna influences the way sound waves are collected and how sounds are perceived.
- Smaller pinna are better at collecting higher frequency sounds.
- Larger pinna are better at collecting lower frequency sounds.
- The pinna also helps localize sounds (directional hearing).
- The middle ear contains the eardrum, ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes), and Eustachian tube.
- The eardrum vibrates when sound waves hit it.
- The ossicles transfer the vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear.
- The Eustachian tube connects the middle ear to the back of the throat and regulates air pressure.
- The inner ear contains the cochlea, semicircular canals, and vestibular system.
- The cochlea converts sound vibrations into electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve.
- The semicircular canals are responsible for our sense of balance.
- The vestibular system is responsible for maintaining equilibrium.
