Unit Description

An ecological approach is adopted to the study of the perceptual activities of seeing, hearing and touch. Students will be familiarised in lectures with the key elements of these three perceptual capacities and to their development and decline. Additionally, seminars will address the psycho-social problems associated with impairments of sight and hearing. Assessment comprises written responses to seminar questions, a publication standard research report based on a self-administered experiment and a final examination.
