Auditory comprehension of language is a complex process. Even students who understand isolated words or are working to “listen carefully” may struggle to process the meaning of a message that is conveyed through speech. Such deficits in listening comprehension, when combined with normal hearing, may lead to a diagnosis of central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). This chapter will explore CAPD from the viewpoints of researchers, diagnosticians, and teachers. After discussing manifestations, diagnosis, and neurological foundations, the chapter will conclude with a focus on therapies, tools, and classroom strategies that can support the learning of students with CAPD. |
