Members of the Ida Academic Panel have been working hard on integrating Ida tools and mthods into their university curriculum.
Just a few months ago the institute convened a gathering of hearing care opinion leaders representing the audiology departments of nearly 20 leading U.S. universities. The two-day Academic Panel, held at the University of Florida, Gainesville, explored opportunities to integrate the Institute’s innovative education materials into undergraduate and graduate audiology curriculums.
Since then several universities have integrated the Institute’s patient-centered tools into curriculums for undergradute, graduate and post-graduate students.
Drs. Terry Chisolm, University of South Florida; Deborah Ferrari, University Sao Paolo, Brazil; and Sam Trychin, Penn State University have added Ida to their Aural Rehabilitation and Counseling courses. In addition, University of Texas, Dallas, University of Tennessee and Salus University have also incorporated the materials into their curriculums.
Currently Dr. Deborah Von Hapsburg is working on a full 3 credit course curriculum focused on Ida tools.
The Academic Panel was comprised of representatives from: University of Kansas; Rush University Medical Center; University of Arizona; University of Pittsburgh; Gallaudet University; James Madison University; The University of Akron; A.T. Still University of Health Sciences; University of North Carolina; University of Florida; University of Texas – Dallas; University of South Florida; University of Louisville; University of Mississippi; Cornell University; University of Minnesota; Indiana University; University of Tennessee – Knoxville and City University of New York.
