    Study Notes

    Aural Habilitation and Rehabilitation

    • Aural habilitation helps deaf and hard-of-hearing children develop listening skills to use hearing devices and develop spoken language.
    • Auditory access is crucial for developing spoken language.
    • The brain reorganizes when deprived of auditory stimulation, other senses may take over the auditory cortex's role.
    • Hearing devices are crucial to give the auditory cortex access.
    • Auditory neural sensory deprivation is eliminated by providing auditory stimulation.
    • Auditory pathways are stimulated for cognitive development.
    • Children's auditory brains need access, stimulation, and development to use spoken language.
    • Successful technology fitting eliminates auditory neural sensory deprivation and provides auditory information to the brain.
    • Hearing devices must access the full frequency range in a soft enough level.
    • Children benefit from multiple listening exposures and auditory practice.
    • Age of intervention and pre/post-lingual deafness impact auditory brain development.
    • 46 million words are heard by age 4.

    Developing an Auditory Brain

    • Auditory brain development requires auditory stimulation and access to information.
    • Early intervention to help children catch up on missed listening time.
    • Early intervention has a positive effect on language, achievement, and societal function.
    • Neural plasticity in the brain is the principle behind this concept where the brain adapts to environmental factors.
    • 10,000 hours of practice is required to master a skill.

    Anticipatory Counseling

    • Anticipatory counseling provides realistic expectations of what auditory development might look like in different situations.
    • Evaluate the expected outcomes for children with hearing loss.
    • Assess intrinsic and extrinsic factors.
    • Intrinsic factors include age of amplification, pre/postlingual deafness and medical conditions
    • Extrinsic factors include child behavior, compliance, support services, and family environment

    AVT Session

    • The AVT session consists of functional auditory, listening, language, and cognitive development.
    • The use of controlled sounds is crucial and should be emphasized during practice.

    Purposed Play

    • Using play to facilitate auditory skills development is efficient as it is intrinsically motivating.
    • Play should be targeted for appropriate auditory skills and the child's development level, age, and sensory needs.
    • Activities are geared toward communication development.
    • The goal of purposeful play sessions is to identify areas needing improvement and appropriate strategies to help a child develop auditory skills.

    Auditory Distractions

    • Auditory distractions need to be minimal to provide a conducive learning environment.
    • Parents coaching should draw attention to environmental sounds for further auditory stimulation.

    Language and Input

    • Simplified, rather than telegraphic language, is better for providing input.
    • Use of clear, simple language that mirrors the child's developmental level.

    Developing Auditory Skills

    • Detect, discriminate, identify, and comprehend sounds are different steps towards having a complete auditory experience.
    • Different words can have similar auditory patterns and hearing aids need to be checked for efficiency.

    Learning to Listen to Sounds

    • Repetition of sounds is important for children's learning and should be used during learning experiences.
    • Songs and nursery rhymes are good for auditory practice and make auditory experiences fun.

    Stages of Play

    • Children go through different stages of pretend play according to their age.
