Hearing Conservation in Secondary Industrial Arts Classes

A Challenge for School Audiologists

Bruce L. Plakke

A survey of secondary industrial arts teachers was made to examine the use of hearing protection in industrial arts programs. The results showed the teachers had little knowledge of hearing conservation methods. All of the teachers had access to an audiologist but very few knew that an audiologist was available. They did say that they would consult with one if help were offered. Although 47% of the teachers believed that they had acquired an occupational hearing loss, they did not use personal hearing protection. The results pointed out the need for further education of industrial arts teachers and more use of school audiologists as consultants.
