Auditory disorders incorporate both deafness and hearing loss. The video below is very helpful in explaining the difference between Hearing Loss and Auditory Processing Disorder:
The next video demonstrates what a student with hearing loss hears in the classroom without a FM Transmitter transmitting the teacher's voice, and what he can hear with the FM Transmitter turned on.
There is quite a difference!
The next video is a demo of the iCommunincator software, which converts text into speech, which then can be played via a FM Transmitter or speakers, and also into American Sign Language.
Over at the side of my blog, there is a list of Adaptations that can be used to support a deaf or hearing impaired student in the classroom.
