This colloquium accompanies SLHS 316: Introduction to Aural Rehabilitation and is intended to be taken in the same semester as the course. SLHS 316 takes a public health approach to hearing health, discussing public policy and specific management options for children and adults who are deaf or hard of hearing. In this one credit course accompanying SLHS 316, we will delve deeper into possible risks of prelingual hearing impairment on children?s speech, language, educational, and social life outcomes. We will discuss mitigating environmental factors as well as individual resilience.
