To avoid difficulty in learning of hearing impaired students the teacher should ................

(i) Reduce unnecessary noise in class
(ii) Speak clearly and correctly
(iii) Reduce the use of audio aids as much as possible
(iv) Reduce the distance between the student and teacher

  • A.(i) only
  • B.(i) and (ii) only
  • C.(i), (ii) and (iii) only
  • D.(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

Answer: D

The key's answer is (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv).

Hearing-impaired students learn best when they can make the most of their remaining hearing and of visual cues. Reducing background noise helps them pick out speech (i); speaking clearly and correctly, facing the class, helps lip-reading (ii); and sitting the student near the teacher shortens the distance the voice must travel and gives a clear view of the face (iv).

Statement (iii) is accepted in the sense that a teacher should rely on visual aids rather than audio-only aids, which such students cannot follow well. Since options C and D both treat (iii) as correct, and (iv) is clearly also needed, the complete set is the keyed answer.
