Do teachers have a right to free speech in the workplace and can comments on personal beliefs and views be grounds for dismissal? In a fictional situation, teacher Ann Griffin is dismissed from her position as a tenured teacher after a conversation she had involving the Principal and Vice Principal in which she made the comment that she “hated all black folks.” Ann Griffin was teaching at a predominantly African-American school and after this heated conversation, the Principal Fred Watts recommended Griffin’s dismissal based on doubting her ability to treat students fairly and questioning her judgment and competency as a teacher. Was the Principal justified in dismissing Ms. Griffin? Should Ms. Griffin’s speech be protected as a First Amendment right?

A Speech Pathologist would not be needed, as it is a hearing, rather than speech-communication problem. Dr. Stacy’s recommendations for Thomas would to first and foremost attempt to correct the problem with behind-the-ear hearing aids since he is prone to earwax build-up. A traditional behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing would be his best fit. Not only would they aid in amplification, but they might also help to solve the tension in the household. Thomas would be able to use them every day, whether he is at home or not. If BTE hearing aids ended up as an inappropriate or comfortable choice for Thomas, she would then recommend an Assisted Listening Device (ALD), such as a personal amplifier. This would reduce background noise and increase the sound levels. Dr. Stacy could also recommend an infrared ALD system in conjunction with his hearing aids for use such as in a restaurant. In the aural rehabilitation plan for Thomas, Dr. Stacy will evaluate him to ensure his hearing aids are the most appropriate fit. She would perform the assessment based on his diagnosis and extent of his hearing loss, as well as his

Janes communication strengths and needs both directly and indirectly impact her and her family. I will discuss these potential impacts by utilising the health and social care PIES model. Firstly, I will discuss the physical influences which occurred because of Jane’s TBI. Initially, the oro-motor assessment indicates that Jane’s face is symmetrical and that she can accurately copy non-speech sounds. This is advantageous as she can swallow and eat her food successfully by manipulating her tongue and moving the bolus to her oesophagus. Being able to swallow will give Jane independence and will ensure her family does not have to feed her.

Throughout the history of Canada, there have been many instances where gender inequality has been an issue. Since 1867, Canada has been continually growing as a country and the views that its society has towards the equality of women has been constantly changing.

One could argue that certain events took place that were pivotal steps in accomplishing gender equality.

After further research I discovered that hearing aids are not as good as some people make them out to be, as the article why things suck: Hearing aids (2008), explains, that the problems are with the microphone, the processor and the battery of the hearing aids. The microphone, this article suggests that it picks up all sound coming from all directions, to a service user this could be come irritating, and confusing, if this is the case it will be hard for the user to focus in on the sounds they need to hear. In a health and social care setting this could become difficult if a hearing impaired person is in a hospital, they may find the professionals voice hard to hear while background noise is happening. If this was to happen the communication would not be effective, as the service user will not be able to hear all the information and therefore wouldn’t understand what was going on. This relates to argyle’s communication cycle, the cycle is made up of six stages: idea occurring, message

Over my past few years being with my daughter going to speech therapy sessions, I met some experienced speech therapy professionals and saw how they evaluate and treat their clients who have hearing, communication and swallow disorders. I am certain that they helped my daughter a lot in assisting her to integrate more with her peers, whilst her progression has fuelled
