This video describes and demonstrates intervention strategies found to be successful in facilitating the acquisition of spoken language by children with cochlear implants. Viewers are taken systematically through the steps of the auditory skills hierarchy to demonstrate the development of auditory skills. Video clips of language-based activities illustrate how auditory tasks are designed and presented. Children ranging in age from toddler to adolescent provide an opportunity to see the varying stages of auditory development. Additionally, the mapping process and the role of the speech and hearing clinicians in providing valuable information to the cochlear implant centers is reviewed.

Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:

outline the steps in the auditory-oral process
create listening activities that challenge young children at various auditory skill levels
identify the role of the speech and hearing professional in service provision to children with implants
communicate performance information to implant center personnel that will assist them in the mapping of the child with the implant
