Visual and Tactile Sensory Aids: Integration into an Ongoing Speech Training Program.

Youdelman, Karen; And Others

Volta Review, v90 n4 p197-207 May 1988

Twenty severely to profoundly hearing-impaired high school students (ages 15-19) evidenced marked improvement in average vocal pitch after implementation of a systematic curriculum that integrated visual and tactile sensory aids into daily speech training. Those using a visual display showed greatest progress. The eight participating teachers gained experience, confidence, and enthusiasm. (Author/VW)
