Do you hear what I hear? Living and learning with conductive hearing loss/otitis media [resource kit] (2009)

Description

Recognising that otitis media and the resultant conductive hearing loss have a significant impact on a child's social, emotional, physical, and educational development, the Education Department of Western Australia have produced the 'Do you hear what I hear?' package. Containing a CD-ROM and teacher resource booklet, the package is aimed at educators developing an awareness and better understanding of issues related to children experiencing conductive hearing loss due to otitis media.

The resource booklet provides information regarding signs and symptoms of otitis media, intervention strategies to support children with conductive hearing loss and the need for a community approach to reduce otitis media and its effects.
