Ling, D. Spoken Language in Hearing-Impaired Children (Korean Text). Seoul, Korea: Han-Kuck, 1989.
The publication of this text was intended to lead to an upgrading of spoken language in Korea, but the text is so similar to Japanese that it can be read by individuals in Japan.
   
Ling, D. The Foundations of Spoken Language for Hearing-Impaired Children. (1989)
Emphasis in this text is given to the perception of speech through residual hearing, either through the use of modern hearing aids or cochlear implants. An important feature of the book is the presentation of the aspects of speech that fall the octave bands centered on the frequencies depicted in audiograms. This knowledge, in conjunction with the Ling Six-Sound Test, allows teachers and clinicians to determine whether the frequency response characteristics of hearing aids are adjusted to provide optimal levels of hearing. The text also provided an in-depth discussion of teaching and learning that concludes with the view that children are better able to learn that adults are to teach. The crucial bases of the Ling System of Speech Development are presented and the text ends with an appendix specifying the common requirements of parents that can lead to the best results in dealing with their children. Each chapter concludes with suggestions for further reading. There are also sample questions for students.
