This presentation explores some of the ongoing access issues for those with hearing loss, especially people who describe themselves as hard-of-hearing. As hearing aids and cochlear implants are often not enough, it will also touch on the ever-changing domain of present and future Assistive Listening Technology. Questions and discussion at the end of the presentation.
