As a clinically trained audiologist and researcher, I feel that it is important to always provide the best services to my patients and provide the most accurate information for my students. This starts with teaching patients and students to demand evidence based practice. Evidence based practice is a term that has been used over and over in clinical practice. We expect our students and clinicians to apply research to every day clinical decisions in the care of patients in all professions. To be able to apply the most recent and accurate evidence to clinical practice, clinicians must have access to research findings. Many clinicians are not associated with organizations (e.g. universities) that purchase subscriptions to journals; therefore, they must purchase these articles on their own, rely on non-peer reviewed trade journals or rely on the available abstract for the evidence for clinical practice. This leads to frustration and inaccurate clinical application of information. Also, with younger patients coming to receive services, many of them are demanding access to information prior to their appointment to become more informed consumers. Open-source journals allow anyone to access the information necessary for best clinical practice; this includes clinicians, researchers, students and patients. If everyone has access to the most recent evidence, in turn, it will better improve the researcher, clinician patient relationship and improve the services we provide.","PeriodicalId":231062,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communication Disorders, Deaf Studies & Hearing Aids","volume":"936 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116198229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Teaching strategies have historically been impacted by technological advancements. There was a point in time where classroom instruction was conducted without the use of Microsoft PowerPoint, but instead on a white board with dry erase markers. However, once a computer was connected to a projector and teachers integrated outlines, real-life images and animations within the computer software PowerPoint, the demand was placed on teachers to learn the latest technology and integrate it into teaching practices. It is generally believed that students become more engaged and excited about learning when technology is involved. Within the past five years, the world of education has yet again been impacted by technological advancements through the introduction of digital tablets, such as the Apple iPad and Samsung Galaxy tablet. As technology continues to develop and launch new technologies, the field of education has to make continual decisions on when, and how to introduce the technologies to classroom learning.","PeriodicalId":231062,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communication Disorders, Deaf Studies & Hearing Aids","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115170857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, words spoken with different tones will change their meaning. Sensorineural hearing loss children have difficulty in perceiving tones which is directly related to a low level of speech understanding and intelligibility.Objectives: This study compared the tonal perception ability of severe-to-profound hearing loss children and profound hearing loss children who used hearing aids and cochlear implants respectively.Material and methods: Sixteen pre-lingual sensorineural hearing loss children from a preschoolaural rehabilitation program at Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, were selected. Subjects consisted of 8 bilateral hearing aid children and 8 unilateral cochlear implant children who were trained in the program for more than 3 years and able to produce speech recognition scores. All subjects demonstrated reasonable aided responses with their hearing devices. A Thai tone identification and discrimination test was used in this study. These tests were conducted by an experienced audiologist in a quiet room. The scores of the hearing aid group and the cochlear implant group were compared.Results: There were significant differences in tonal identification scores and tonal discrimination scores for the cochlear implant group when compared to the hearing aid group (p<0.05)Conclusion: Cochlear implantation provided better tonal perception of Thai lexical tone identification and discrimination of profound hearing loss children than severe-to-profound hearing loss children who used bilateral hearing aids.","PeriodicalId":231062,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communication Disorders, Deaf Studies & Hearing Aids","volume":"3 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114115051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other audiologic \u0000 studies have equally established a link between smoking and auditory disorders. \u0000Aim and objective: This paper aims to draw a simple audiometric comparison between two groups of young adultssmoking \u0000 and non-smoking young Saudi male students. \u0000Materials and methods: A total of forty (40) healthy male university students of age range 18-24 and mean of 21 \u0000 voluntarily participated in the study. Audiometric findings of seven smokers age-matched with thirty-three nonsmokers \u0000 were examined in the study. A researcher designed questionnaire, ‘Audiological Profile of Chronic Cigarette \u0000 Smokers Questionnaire’ (APCCSQ) was administered on all the volunteer participants after its face and content \u0000 validity had been ascertained by a faculty member who is independent of the study. Audiometric test was conducted \u0000 in a standard double chamber IAC Acoustics AudioMetric booth of <35 dB background noise (ANSI S3.1-1991 \u0000 specification). Each participant had otologic examination using Welch Allyn Digital Macro-View Video Otoscope, \u0000 diagnostic pure tone audiometry using GSI 61 calibrated to ANSI (2004) specification. Participants also had middle \u0000 ear examination using an up to date calibrated GSI 39 autotymp at 226 Hz probe tone. Only those with \u0000 Tympanogram ‘A’ and otoscopic clearance were allowed to participate in the study. \u0000Results: Generally, audiometric findings in both groups were within normal limits but non-smokers were found to \u0000 have a better hearing sensitivity than smokers when averages of audiometric thresholds were calculated. Another key \u0000 observation was that threshold of hearing appeared to be slightly elevated in the higher frequencies of 4 and 8 KHz \u0000 among smokers in comparison to non-smokers. The bar charts clearly show this.","PeriodicalId":231062,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communication Disorders, Deaf Studies & Hearing Aids","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114852700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
