Using Qualitative Methodologies in Speech-Language Pathology: An Example from Serving Students with Hearing Loss
Westby, Carol E.
Communication Disorders Quarterly, v42 n2 p100-110 Feb 2021
This article demonstrates the use of qualitative methodologies to provide a description of an intervention framework and goals for students with hearing loss in general education. Because of advances in technology, the majority of students with hearing loss are now educated in general education classrooms. Many of these students are not eligible for special education services although their hearing loss does compromise their functioning in many areas of daily life. This investigation employed two qualitative methods--the biographical narrative interpretive method and ethnography--to provide insight into the personal experiences of a speech-language pathologist with a hearing loss and the way her experiences influenced the nature, rationale for, and content of the intervention program she implemented for students with hearing loss in general education programs. The qualitative methods are described, examples of qualitative analyses are provided, and the components of the program for elementary school students are presented.
