Dual Language Learning Revisited: How Did They Do That?

By now, 100s of children around the globe with significant hearing loss are able to listen and speak in more than one language. In the absence of a gold standard for intervention, these children have made great achievements under a variety of conditions. The purpose of this presentation will be to guide early interventionists explicitly through considerations that need to be made when designing effective intervention. Participants will analyze a variety of case examples of children and adults who speak English and a variety of other languages. The aim will be for participants to identify the active "ingredients" in each child's plan that may have led to their success.

  • List at least three considerations that need to be made when desigining effective spoken language bilingual and/or multi/lingual intervention for children with hearing loss
  • Identify at least three active ingredients which may lead to successful spoken language bilingual and/or multi/lingual learning for children with hearing loss
  • List at least three intervention models which may lead to successful spoken language bilingual and/or multi-lingual learning
