Description
The role of the educational audiologist is multifaceted and covers a wide variety of areas in both special and regular education. Educational audiologists are uniquely qualified to address the effects of hearing, listening, and auditory deficits on the ability of children to access spoken language, verbal instruction, and peer-to-peer learning opportunities. A primary role of the educational audiologist is to assure that students who are deaf and hard of hearing have appropriate auditory access through the use of assistive technology and modifications and accommodations designed to support individual hearing needs.
