Instructional Ideas

  • Use a model of an ear to show the parts; Famemaster makes a nice one that you can take pieces out of and place back to show the delicacy of the parts
  • Bring in a hearing specialist to discuss hearing aids and other devices

  • Requires advanced math knowledge
  • Presentation is the 11th in a 17-part series

Pros
