Auditory processing disorder

perfectly fitted in. Then I plugged the other, and did the same to it. That was what the doctor asked me to do. I walked into the classroom, sit down, opened my music folder. The sponges soon expanded, filling up every minute space in my external auditory canal, almost strong enough to make my ears explode. The instruments’ sound volume was then turned down; less music flew into my ears. The earplugs, as though the physical…

learning styles. There are many different types of styles but three in particular stand out the most; visual, kinesthetic, and auditory. Visual learners use images to help them learn. They better remember by seeing rather than hearing. For example a visual learning student would rather read a book rather than hearing a teacher read it out loud. Which is opposite of an auditory…

All of my life I have been involved in a sport or physical activity. The similarity between the sports I have learned to play and the way I was taught to learn in school are very much the same. I grew up playing softball and volleyball, which are both very detailed sports to play. With all different positions, regulations, and rules it is very much important to pay close attention while being taught how to play. It would have never been easy to learn the techniques by only watching a volleyball…

with Down syndrome face tremendous difficulties with hearing. Down syndrome occurs due to an extra copy of the twenty-first chromosome causing intellectual and developmental delays as well as abnormal physical characteristics. The etiology of this disorder is genetic due to the addition of the extra chromosome, however causes of this additional chromosome are unknown. Down syndrome affects both sexes and is present from birth. With the highly complex nature of the hearing process, the physical…

to today where I am returning to school for an online education, I can say that I still prefer the interactive learning with online tech solutions, compare to a traditional classroom. With distractions from other students while a lecture is being auditory delivered. There is little to no Kinesthetic adoption of the lesson besides writing as fast as one can write while missing some keywords being spoken and no ability to rewind the conversation. I was considered a special aid student when I…

Adult Case Study (Ear) What additional historical data would you like to collect? A general history of ear, nose, mouth, and throat including current or recent exposure of respiratory infections should be collected. In order to find out if the vertigo is from a systemic cause, ask key questions like: What other health problems do you have? Are you anxious or nervous? What makes the dizziness worse or what makes the dizziness and ringing in your ear go away? Cardiovascular problems such as…

have a child born with the same birth defect (Hadfield, Microtia: My Family Story). Without a reason though it is difficult to prevent microtia from happening. Aural Atresia, the absence of the external auditory ear canal, is found to accompany the more severe grades of microtia. The external auditory ear canal is not the only part of the ear affected. Aural atresia also affects the middle ear. The middle ear contains three small bones, the ossicles consisting of the incus, stapes and malleus.…

review the summarization in the beginning of the voice recording and skip the more detailed content to move onto the next section. Downloading an app or using the voice recording function provided on a smart phone or computer would allow for this auditory note recording process. Kinesthetic learning is learning through experience from the application of your senses. I apply the kinesthetic learning style when it is available, such as labs for science, or on the job training. For myself this is…

Middle Ear Case 2A A 60 year old female was seen today for an audiological evaluation following the persistence of fluctuating, hearing loss and tinnitus in her right ear over the last year. She also reports occasional dizziness and aural fullness that affects her right ear more than her left ear. She is currently seeking a hearing aid for her right ear but is wondering if anything may be done to correct her hearing loss. Some additional necessary information may be what was she doing when the…

1. The pinna or auricle directs sound waves into the auditory canal. The eardrum vibrates according to frequency. Vibration transmitted to malleus then incus and then stapes of the middle ear. When the stapes vibrate, the membrane of the oval window is pushed in and out. This created the fluid pressure in the perilymph. Pressure waves enter the Scala vestibule then Scala tympani and then round window. This is where the walls become deformed in Scala vestibule and Scala tympani. Pressure…
