    The document discusses assistive technologies that can help different types of hearing disabilities. Speech-to-text technology helps with sensorineural hearing loss, FM systems aid conductive hearing loss in large spaces, and captioning benefits moderate to profound hearing loss by making audio resources accessible through reading.

    Type of Hearing Disability Assistive Technologies that can be used and how these can
    help

    Speech-to-text technology is useful for hearing loss of this kind


    Sensorineural Hearing Loss as it may affect the clarity of sound and not just the loudness.
    Due to this, hearing aids may not be sufficient. Speech-to-text
    removes the need for clarity (Wintemute, 2020; The University
    of Iowa, n.d.).

    FM Systems provide a great option in a large indoor setting for


    students who are hard of hearing due to conductive hearing
    Conductive Hearing Loss loss where the problem is localized to the outer ear. With FM
    systems, distance and clarity will be much less of a problem
    (Gallaudet University, 2014; The University of Iowa, n.d.).

    Captioning is very versatile in that it can assist those even with


    just mild hearing loss. However, it is especially helpful for
    those with higher degrees of hearing loss where their range of
    Moderate to Profound Hearing Loss hearing and clarity would make auditory solutions ineffective.
    Allowing them to access video-type media by reading opens up
    more options for academic resources which would normally be
    more difficult (American Speech-Language-Hearing
    Association, n.d.; Gallaudet University, 2014).
