Description
Designed to reinforce core concepts and build clinical reasoning skills, the Audiology Workbook is the ideal companion to Audiology: Science to Practice, the trusted undergraduate text for Introduction to Audiology and Hearing Science courses. This hands-on workbook provides a wide range of exercises-from foundational knowledge checks to applied problem-solving activities-that help students translate theory into practice and prepare for success in both the classroom and the clinic.
Organized to align chapter-by-chapter with the companion textbook, the workbook supports active learning through audiogram interpretation, clinical scenarios, calculation exercises, labeling activities, and critical thinking questions. Detailed answer sections allow students to assess their understanding and instructors to incorporate assignments easily into coursework. Whether used for independent study, homework, or in-class engagement, this workbook strengthens comprehension and confidence across the breadth of audiology topics.
New to the Fifth Edition
Updated exercises fully aligned with the Fifth Edition of the textbook
Expanded clinical application questions emphasizing real-world audiologic decision-making
Revised audiograms, figures, and labeling activities with improved visual clarity
Additional practice opportunities in vestibular assessment and physiologic measures
Enhanced answer sections to support self-assessment and instructor use
New illustrations to support comprehension of complex concepts
The Audiology Workbook, Fifth Edition is an essential tool for mastering introductory audiology-helping students move beyond memorization toward true understanding and clinical readiness.
