Texas PACT exam questions and answers already passed What is the first stafe of Piagets cognitive development? ✔✔Stage 1) Sensorimotor stage: ages 0-24 months - reflexes -circular reactions (thumbsucking) - secondary reactions( repeat actions) -coordination( understand cause and effect) - Terriary reactions( trial and error) -early rep. Thoughts (symbols) What is the second stage of Piegets cognitive development? ✔✔Preoperarional (ages 2-7 years) -Egocentric -do not understand concrete logic or conservation 4th stage of Piegets cognitive development? ✔✔Formal operations (ages 12- adulthood) - understand and manipulate abstract concepts -deductive and inductive reasoning -problem solving -understand different perspectives, feelings and abstract ideas The order of Early language development? ✔✔Receptive- understanding the language that is heard or read Expressive- the production of spoken and written language Pragmatic- using receptive and expressive during social interaction Formative assessments? ✔✔Assessments given DURING a lesson, to assess their strengths and weaknesses Summative assessments? ✔✔Given AFTER a lesson/unit, to determine whether if needed to repeat lesson What is the process of assessment? ✔✔1) screening- at birth for developmental DA but some are detected later or unidentified until school 2) prerefferal- to special education services to resolve the issue 3) identification- by asking permission to evaluate the child 4) evaluation- to determine eligibility 5) if eligible they will set ip IEP What to know about IEP? ✔✔Parents must be informed about time, place, and purpose (must be written) Students, parents, teachers, specialist, outside consultants are included in IEP meetings Parents must give consent before initial provision of special education services After everyone agrees w IEP the school must give parents a written copy Annually every 12 months or whenever needed IEP includes: level of Ed performance, tests, grades, classework, annual goals, all services provided, modifications Age 14, start transition services before going into HS Different Ear Developments? ✔✔Microtia- smaller ear than normal Hemifacial Microsomia- one ear is undersized Goldenhar syndrome- undersized malformed jaw Oculoauricilo vertebral dysphasia- epiblar demoids and cervical spine dysphasia Microtia anotia- pinnacle outer ear is undersized or absent Anotia? ✔✔Absence of an outer ear (conductive hearing loss)? Cup shaped ears? ✔✔Small and grow forward over the external auditory (can't funnel soundconductive hearing loss) Lop ears? ✔✔Ears larger and normal and extended away from the head ( Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) EHDI ( Early Hearing Detection and Intervention) includes... ✔✔Hearing screening by the age of newborn-1 month old If do not pass screening, will see audiologist by age of 3 months to determine hearing loss? If confirmed hearing loss, will receive intervention ASAP What are the different types of hearing loss? ✔✔Conductive- which is problem in the outer ear and or middle ear (causes: wax buildup, bone overgrowth, otitis media, fluid) it is treatable Sensorineural- which is in the inner ear (cochlea) nerves/ brain (causes: cochlear hair cell loss, cochlear dysfunction, nerve damage) its permanent damage Mixed: both conductive and sensorineural Air conduction audiometry? ✔✔Over the ear headphones, that test tones through the outer ear and middle ear. So sound is conducted via air vibrations Bone conduction audiometry? ✔✔Places the vibrator on the temporal bone or forehead (sensorineural hearing loss) Otosclerosis? ✔✔It's a condition where abnormal overgrowth of a bone in the middle ear; genetic Ménière's disease? ✔✔Affects vestibular system causing balance problems and hearing loss Congenital syphilis? ✔✔Cause fluctuations in hearing levels (can be treated) Cued speech? ✔✔Visual communication that helps to encode English language It combines speech moth movements with hand shapes/ placements to make speech sounds 8 different hand shapes and 4 different placement of hands Total communication? ✔✔Uses all communication styles, the person can choose their preferred form of communication ( oral, ASL, lip reading, body language, amplification) What are some research findings in social development in DHH? ✔✔Public schools hearing students had greater social maturity than deaf students Deaf students interacted more with deaf peers than hearing Hearing students somewhat accept deaf students Acoustic immittance testing? ✔✔Measures how much resistance or impedance exists in the ears conductive mechanisms Behesy audiometry? ✔✔Automated and do not require an examiner to present pure tones; test hearing yourself Tympanimentry? ✔✔Compares air pressure in the ear canal to the Middle Ear. It tells you whether Ear is normal pressure, some wax or negative dysfunction Serious Otitis Media? ✔✔Middle ear fluids buildup; mainly due to tube dysfunction or mucosal overgrown ( surgically fixed) Otosclerosis? ✔✔Temporal bone disease (causes conductive hearing loss) Traumatic eardrum perforations? ✔✔Sudden air pressure change in the external auditory (caused by compression, hit:slapped, skiiing, explosions Ages of first language development? ✔✔6-8 months: babble 9-18 months: holophrastic ( one word) 18-24 months: 2 word stage 24-30 months: telegraphic Phonetics? ✔✔Physical characteristics of spoken/sign production Phonology? ✔✔Studies speech sounds/signs as separate abstract (/k/ae/t 3 phonemes)? Morphology? ✔✔Studies the structures within individual words and grammatical modifications Morphemes? ✔✔smallest grammatical unit in a language. Mom, Cat, Sister Syntax? ✔✔Studies sequences in which words are arranged to form grammatical sentences Semantics? ✔✔Studies word meanings Pragmatics? ✔✔Studies how speech is used to communicate and how context transmits non language means Discourse analysis? ✔✔Analyzes language used 3 stage of Piegets cognitive development? ✔✔Concrete Operations (ages 7-11 years) -develop the ability to think logically and mental operations - understanding of reversibility and sequences (pet is a poodle, a poodle is a dog, a dog is an animal) - develop deductive reasoning (predict events) Hearing losses in dB? ✔✔Normal 0-20 Mild 20-40 Moderate 40-60 Severe 60-80 Profound 80 + Terms to describe hearing loss ✔✔Unilateral- hearing loss in one ear Bilateral- hearing loss in both ears Symmetrical- degree and configuration are the same in both ears Asymmetrical- degree and configuration are different in each ear Progressive hearing loss Sudden hearing loss What are the 4 basic steps in the brain for it to work? ✔✔Input- get data from eyes and ears into brain Integration- Brain must make sense of data received Memory- data must be stored and kept ready Output- when needed, brain needs to make sense of data and send message to nerves and muscles RTI (response to intervention) approach? ✔✔The approach is to COLLECT, REPORT, ANALYZE data to see if the student needs special ed services in general classrooms What are the 7 IEP steps? ✔✔Pre referral- document students difficulties. Teachers and parents come together to see if it can be resolved Referral- if step one fails, contact special education services Identification- assessment to determine if they have a DA, if need special education Eligibility- info from assessment Development of IEP Implementation of IEP- services began Evaluation and review
