Teaching the Kids with High Tech Ears
Video Butte
What do you do with your student who was profoundly deaf, but now can hear with a cochlear implant? How does that change
your teaching and accommodations in a public school classroom setting? Do you do anything different that you would do for
students wearing hearing aids? What can schools do to meet the unique needs of these students? What should your
expectations be for a kid with "high-tech" ears?
By viewing this video, you can follow the experiences of a large metropolitan school district that studied and implemented an
innovative program for this population. What they learned can help not only kids with implants, but all students who are deaf or
hard-of-hearing in mainstream classrooms.

Technology-Enhanced Shared Reading With Deaf and
Hard-of-Hearing Children: The Role of a Fluent Signing
Narrator
Vannesa Mueller &Richard Hurtig
Early shared reading experiences have been shown to benefit normally hearing children. It has been hypothesized that hearing
parents of deaf or hard-of-hearing children may be uncomfortable or may lack adequate skills to engage in shared reading
activities. A factor that may contribute to the widely cited reading difficulties seen in the majority of deaf children is a lack of early
linguistic and literacy exposure that come from early shared reading experiences with an adult who is competent in the language
of the child. A single-subject-design research study is described, which uses technology along with parent training in an attempt
to enhance the shared reading experiences in this population of children. The results indicate that our technology-enhanced
shared reading led to a greater time spent in shared reading activities and sign vocabulary acquisition. In addition, analysis of the
shared reading has identified the specific aspects of the technology and the components of the parent training that were used
most often.

The Nature and Efficiency of the Word Reading
Strategies of Orally Raised Deaf Students
Paul Miller
The main objective of this study was to unveil similarities and differences in the word reading strategies of orally raised
individuals with prelingual deafness and hearing individuals. Relevant data were gathered by a computerized research paradigm
asking participants to make rapid same/different judgments for words. There were three distinct study conditions: (a) a visual
condition manipulating the visual–perceptional properties of the target word pairs, (b) a phonological condition manipulating their
phonological properties, and (c) a control condition. Participants were 31 high school and postgraduate students with prelingual
deafness and 59 hearing students (the control group). Analysis of response latencies and accuracy in the three study conditions
suggests that the word reading strategies the groups relied upon to process the stimulus materials were of the same nature.
Evidence further suggests that prelingual deafness does not undermine the efficiency with which readers use these strategies. To
gain a broader understanding of the obtained evidence, participants’ performance in the word processing experiment was
correlated with their phonemic awareness—the hypothesized hallmark of proficient word reading—and their reading
comprehension skills. Findings are discussed with reference to a reading theory that assigns phonology a central role in
proficient word reading.

Phonological Awareness, Vocabulary, and Reading in
Deaf Children With Cochlear Implants
Carol Johnson
Usha Goswami
Purpose: To explore the phonological awareness skills of deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs) and relationships
with vocabulary and reading development.
Method: Forty-three deaf children with implants who were between 5 and 15 years of age were tested; 21 had been implanted at
around 2.5 years of age (Early CI group), and 22 had been implanted at around 5 years of age (Late CI group). Two control
groups—a deaf hearing aided group (16 children) and a typically developing group of hearing children (19 children)—were also
tested. All children received a battery of phonological processing tasks along with measures of reading, vocabulary, and
speechreading. Analyses focus on deaf children within the normal IQ range (n = 53).
Results: Age at cochlear implantation had a significant effect on vocabulary and reading outcomes when quotient scores were
calculated. Individual differences in age at implant, duration of fit, phonological development, vocabulary development, auditory
memory, visual memory, and speech intelligibility were all strongly associated with progress in reading for the deaf implanted
children. Patterns differed somewhat depending on whether quotient scores or standard scores were used.
Conclusions: Cochlear implantation is associated with development of the oral language, auditory memory, and phonological
awareness skills necessary for developing efficient word recognition skills. There is a benefit of earlier implantation.

The Development of Proto-Performative Utterances in
Deaf Toddlers
Guido F. Lichtert & Filip T. Loncke
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine and compare the development of proto-imperative and protodeclarative utterances in normally developing, non-neonatally screened, profoundly deaf toddlers.
METHOD: Both types of proto-declarative are considered to be the most basic prelinguistic and early linguistic communicative
functions. Eighteen normally developing, non-neonatally screened, profoundly deaf toddlers participated in a
longitudinal study. All children were enrolled in the same oral–aural home guidance program. At the time of the study,
none of the children had received a cochlear implant. At the ages of 18, 24, and 30 months, proto-imperative utterances
were elicited using an adapted version of M. Casby and J. A. Cumpata's (1986) Protocol for the Assessment of
Prelinguistic Intentional Communication. For eliciting proto-declarative intentions, a video clip was used.
RESULTS: Results revealed a significant increase in both frequency and level of utterances for both types of protoperformatives. Although there was a clear development from nonlinguistic toward linguistic communication, utterances
remained predominantly deictic–gestural for the imperative intentions and referential–gestural for declaratives.
CONCLUSIONS: The data support the notion from the literature that both types of performatives are susceptible to elicitation.
Results also suggest that after neonatal screening, both total communication and oral–aural approaches might
accelerate conventionalization of the earliest communicative utterances of profoundly deaf toddlers.

Speech Production in 12-Month-Old Children With and
Without Hearing Loss
Richard S. McGowan & Susan Nittrouer & Karen Chenausky
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare speech production at 12 months of age for children with hearing loss (HL)
who were identified and received intervention before 6 months of age with those of children with normal hearing (NH).
Method: The speech production of 10 children with NH was compared with that of 10 children with HL whose losses were
identified (better ear pure-tone average at 0.5, 1, and 2 kHz poorer than 50 dB HL) and whose intervention started before 6
months of age. These children were recorded at 12 months of age interacting with a parent. Three properties of speech
production were analyzed: (a) syllable shape, (b) consonant type, and (c) vowel formant frequencies.
Results: Children with HL had (a) fewer multisyllable utterances with consonants, (b) fewer fricatives and fewer stops with
alveolar-velar stop place, and (c) more restricted front-back tongue positions for vowels than did the children with NH.
Conclusion: Even when hearing loss is identified shortly after birth, children with HL do not develop speech production skills as
their peers with NH do at 12 months of age. This suggests that researchers need to consider their approaches to early
intervention carefully.

Beginning to Communicate After Cochlear Implantation
-Oral Language Development in a Young Child
David J. Ertmer & Lynette M. Strong & Neeraja Sadagopan
This longitudinal case study examined the emergence of a wide range of oral language skills in a deaf child whose cochlear
implant was activated at 20 months. The main purposes of this study were to determine "Hannah's" rate of spoken language
development during her second to fourth year of implant experience and to estimate the efficiency of her progress by comparing
her performance to that of typically developing children. Mother-child interactions were also examined to determine changes in
Hannah's communication competence. Normal or above-normal rates of development were observed in the following areas: (a)
decreased production of nonwords, (b) increased receptive vocabulary, (c) type-token ratio, (d) regular use of word combinations,
and (e) comprehension of phrases. Below-normal rates of development were observed in the following areas: (a) speech
intelligibility, (b) number of word types and tokens, and (c) mean length of utterance in morphemes. Analysis of parent-child
interactions showed a large increase in responses to questions during the third year of implant use. Data from Hannah's first
post-implantation year (D. J. Ertmer & J. A. Mellon, 2001) indicated that some early language milestones were attained quite
rapidly (e.g., canonical vocalizations and emergence of first word combinations). In contrast, the current study revealed that
progress had slowed for related, but more advanced skills (e.g., production of intelligible speech and consistent use of word
combinations). These changes in rate of development suggest that any advantages for language learning due to Hannah's
advanced maturity (or other unknown factors) decreased with time and increasing-linguistic complexity.

Analogous and Distinctive Patterns of Prelinguistic
Communication in Toddlers With and Without Hearing
Loss
Anat Zaidman-Zait & Esther Dromi
Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the prelinguistic communicative abilities of toddlers with hearing loss and without
hearing loss during the 2nd year of life and shortly before the emergence of productive single-word lexicons.
Method: The participants were 28 toddlers with hearing loss who participated in an early intervention program and 92 toddlers
with normal hearing at similar language levels and close chronological ages. The assessment consisted of the Hebrew Parent
Questionnaire—Communication and Early Language (HPQ-CEL; E. Dromi, H. Ben-Shahar-Treitel, E. Guralnik, & D. RingwaldFrimerman, 1992) that guided parents' observations of their toddlers in 6 contexts at home. Parents reported on a range of
prelinguistic communicative abilities.
Results: Profile analysis indicated that the 2 groups used a remarkably similar overall profile of prelinguistic behaviors.
Interrelationships among behaviors were noticeably similar, too. Two communication properties unique to toddlers with hearing
loss were relatively lower spontaneous use of words and reduced involvement in triadic book reading interactions. In addition, the
associations between use of words and gestures in toddlers with hearing loss were slightly different from the toddlers with normal
hearing, and the range of innovative gestures that they produced was greater.
Conclusion: The remarkable similarity between the 2 groups support the feasibility of adopting goals and principles known to hold
true in typical development for fostering communication in toddlers with hearing loss.

Quality of Life for Children With Cochlear Implants:
Perceived Benefits and Problems and the Perception
of Single Words and Emotional Sounds
Efrat A. Schorr&Froma P. Roth& Nathan A. Fox
Purpose: This study examined children's self-reported quality of life with a cochlear implant as related to children's actual
perceptions of speech and the emotional information conveyed by sound. Effects of age at amplification with hearing aids and
fitting of cochlear implants on perceived quality of life were also investigated.
Method: A self-reported quality of life questionnaire and assessments of speech perception (single words) and emotion
identification were administered to a sample of 37 children with cochlear implants who were congenitally deaf, who were 5–14
years of age, and who all used spoken language.
Results: The children reported significant improvement in quality of life because of their cochlear implants, and they also reported
low levels of concern about typical problems associated with wearing an implant. The children's perceived quality of life did not
significantly predict speech perception performance at the single word level. In contrast, increased quality of life predicted better
performance on the emotion identification task. Age at first use of amplification predicted perceived quality of life.
Conclusions: The findings regarding age reinforce the importance of early detection and intervention for children's positive quality
of life with cochlear implants later in childhood.
