Mini-Course: Challenging Situations

 

7 - Social and Physical Challenges

Introduction

This mini-course discusses social and physical challenges for children with cochlear implants. Not all children with cochlear implants experience these challenges in the same ways. Work with the child's parents and support professionals to understand which particular challenges your student may face and work with these same people to devise strategies for overcoming these challenges.

After completing the mini-course, you will have a better understanding of common challenges for students with cochlear implants, including:
  • Social challenges
  • Physical challenges
