NTID’S Implications Describes Current Hearing Research

Implications of NTID Research, a biannual publication summarizing new research related to deaf people in the areas of home, classroom, and the workplace, is now available from the National Technical Institute for the Deaf, a college of Rochester Institute of Technology.

Research studies have been a part of NTID’s mission since the college was founded 40 years ago. Implications describes more than 60 projects related to teaching and learning, language and literacy, sociocultural influences, career development, technology integration and age-related hearing loss research. Web sites are included with each entry for additional research citations, applications, and implications.

Expanded descriptions of research projects mentioned in Implications can be found in its companion publication, NTID Papers and Publications. Additional copies of either publication may be obtained by contacting Jonathan Millis at jjmedr@rit.edu.
