Description: Focuses on Lisa Staley in her second-grade classroom to observe and explain the reactions of a hard-of-hearing child in an instructional setting. Emphasizes the difficulty of discovering this type of handicap if the child is able to pass routine hearing tests and function through observation of the other children. Gives several clues which may indicate a hearing loss such as a deficient vocabulary, lipreading, missed directions, frequent and careful observation of others, little or no response to a loud speaker, or difficulty with abstractions.
