Extractions: This study investigated how well 273 teachers in Georgia understood the needs of mainstreamed children who were hard of hearing who were in their classrooms. A survey was sent to 273 teachers of students with hearing loss who were not receiving special education services. The survey sought information regarding the teachers awareness of their students hearing loss and what they knew about the loss. Teachers were also asked how they received information about the hearing loss and how they preferred to receive it. Deficiencies were found in the teachers level of awareness and knowledge regarding their students hearing loss across all grade levels. Teachers generally preferred the information sources with which they were most familiar. Recommendations are offered to improve communication with classroom teachers regarding students hearing loss.

Clinical Exchange MB. floatingharbor syndrome (FHS), named after the two hospitals where the firsttwo patients were described, has infrequently been described in the literature http://www.childguidanceclinic.ca/Clinical Exchange.htm
Extractions: Health Sciences Centre. Winnipeg. MB Abstract This clinical exchange presents a 3-year case Study of oral language skill development in a child with Floating-Harbor syndrome (FHS). FHS is a rare condition that is characterized by short stature, expressive language delay, and triangular facies. Oral language skills were developed in the context of a naturalistic language intervention approach, within an early childhood school-based Program. Initial presenting speech and language characteristics, as well as long-term needs, are discussed. Key Words Floating-Harbor syndrome, speech and language development, naturalistic intervention Early Childhood Language Centre Naturalistic Language Intervention Naturalistic language intervention. described by Norris and Hoffman (1990), is consistent with the principles of whole language learning. Language intervention is meaning-based and occurs in socially meaningful interactions. Children are assisted in attending to meaningful aspects of the environment. which enables them to conceptualize the physical and social environment. and function as active participants, thus integrating a linguistic code. Communication is expanded and refined within the communication setting. Goal setting and language intervention take place in a classroom setting. Clinician roles include observation and ongoing language sampling and analysis. Language intervention is provided daily through child-centered play activities. Strategies include modeling. expansion, use of closure. and scaffolding (Hubbell. 1977). Modeling is used extensively to provide ongoing feedback regarding use of specific syntactic structures and correct sound production.

Extractions: California General Area of Research My primary goal is to apply functional MRI ( fMRI ) and cognitive neuroscience to answer questions which are meaningful for older adults. The focus of my research has been to refine our understanding of individual differences in age-related brain changes. I have spent my years before coming to Stanford completing training in clinical neuropsychology so that my research will be sensitive to the everyday needs of older adults. My initial research focused on attention and explored the impact of perceptual impairment on visual search. During my clinical postdoctoral training, I studied the relationship between attention and inhibitory motor behavior. I am continuing this work by performing fMRI studies of response competition. After years of assessing patients with memory complaints, I have expanded my focus to the study of memory, specifically, the impact of perception on memory retrieval.

Extractions: Received: 26 August 1994 Accepted: 17 February 1995 Abstract The Floating-Harbor syndrome is a growth retardation syndrome with delayed bone age, speech development, and typical facial features. The face is triangular with deep-set eyes, long eyelashes, bulbous nose, wide columella, short philtrum, and thin lips. We present an additional patient and review 16 cases from the literature. The possible phenotype in the patient's mother suggests a dominant mode of inheritance for the syndrome. Conclusion The Floating Harbor syndrome is a growth deficiency syndrome characterized by proportionate short stature, characteristic face and delayed speech development. Inheritance is possibly autosomal dominant.
