The goal of this assignment is to further explore our hearing ability. You will listen to an episode of the podcast Only Human, called Your Brain on Sound. This podcast gives a personal anecdote of an individual's struggle with a hearing disability. Then you will answer a series of questions. https://www.wnyc.org/shows/onlyhuman/episodes
1- What does it mean to be "deaf in noise"? Reflect on what it might be like to have this disorder.
2- What is "neural synchrony"?
3- If Rose can hear sounds, how is it that she has trouble "hearing"? Address this question using what you know about sensory processing.
4- Often, researchers are far removed from the population they study. Reflect on the unique relationship between Rose and researcher, Nina Krauss. How do they help one another?
