title: [New developments in the area of education of the hearing impaired].
abstract: Developments for the language- and hearing-impaired include intensive diagnostic and prognostic evaluation by a professional team. Possibilities are presented to the parents and child, with whom the final decision of educational placement rests. Further growth in language and speech education is ascribed to advanced scientific equipment and increasing knowledge, e.g. of the brain. Home units and an after care section also supply increased differentiation.
