Educational Audiology Handbook

Educational Audiology Handbook, Third Edition , offers a roadmap for audiologists who work in schools or other providers who support school-based audiology services. Our students who are hard of hearing rely on their technology for equal access to their learning environment and to fully participate educationally and socially. Whether you are an audiologist, a teacher of the deaf/hard of hearing, or a speech language pathologist charged with monitoring the appropriate programs of these students, you need this updated information! This updated 2021 version provides guidelines and blueprints for creating and maintaining high-quality educational audiology programs. Within this comprehensive and practical resource, there are a range of tools, including assessment guidelines, protocols and forms, useful information for students, families, school staff and community partners, as well as legal and reference documents.
