Living Successfully with Hearing Loss Level 3 (DHHE 0621)
This course expands the knowledge, skills, and abilities developed through Levels 1 and 2 and provides the opportunity for students to apply these skills in the field. The students move from generalized situations to those that more closely mimic realistic challenges and responsibilities of living in the hearing world. This course emphasizes real-life experiences both in and out of the classroom, incorporating higher-level communication responsibility, larger groups, and noisy environments. Through these listening experiences, students evaluate their relationship with technology and, ultimately, assess their self-efficacy related to living successfully with hearing loss.
