Practice in lip-reading/speechreading using group discussion of readings presented in class by a variety of speech models. Emphasis on speechreading language samples that vary in length from one word to one paragraph with or without context, sometimes presented partially aloud, sometimes in complete silence. Additional focus on utilization of extensive contextual cues and use of short- and long-term memory to help with speech understanding, as well as focus on homophene review and visibility of articulation of speech sounds, visible discrimination of speech sounds. Lip-reading materials consist of the reading of books, short stories, or articles written in contemporary American English read together in class, suggested by students and selected by the instructor or by a vote of the students.
