130 - Better Hearing for Better Learning. Roundtable Discussion: Improving Auditory Assessment in Schools
This week, Dave Kemp interviews Dr. Jacqueline Scholl, Dr. Nina Kraus, and Oklahoma State Representative Meloyde Blancett to discuss the shortcomings of the current hearing testing methods for children in schools.
Dr. Scholl shares her personal experience with her son who was initially misdiagnosed with ADHD but later found to have a significant auditory processing disorder. She also talks about her shock upon discovering that the state of Oklahoma did not require hearing screenings in schools.
Dr. Kraus offers her insights into the development of the auditory brain and how hearing deficits can affect reading ability.
The panel emphasizes that a significant number of children with auditory pathway problems are being diagnosed and medicated for various conditions, while auditory issues are frequently overlooked.
