Abstract There is an adage used by teachers in the American education system that says, “You learn to communicate before you communicate to learn.” This saying reminds us that communication skills are the foundation for learning and that naturally developing children are generally competent communicators before they enter school. They use their foundational language skills to be successful in the classroom. This adage is not typically true for students using AAC systems. These students often enter school without competent communication skills and must work on these skills, while also trying to master school subjects. The reader is challenged to assess his or her role in the language development process of children using AAC systems. Speech-language pathologists will be encouraged to go beyond the role of programming AAC devices and return to the role of “language therapist.” Educators, who spend the majority of the school day with the student, are reminded that they hold the keys to augmentative communication success in schools. Their role is critical in supporting and applying language skills in the classroom.

Thinking Consciousness

<p><em>With the frequent development of the international communication and cooperation, the interpreter’s role is much more important than ever before in the modern society. In order to meet this demand, more and more China’s universities have set up undergraduate translation major, and (or) set up a professional Master of Translation and Interpretation (MTI). Under this circumstance, the universities become the main force of interpreter training. This paper mainly studies the English interpreting teaching from the perspective of interpreter qualities focusing on eight qualities: language competence, knowledge storage, interpreting quotients (communication skills, thinking consciousness, reflexes and concentration, learning ability, psychological quality, service consciousness). Through the study on the interpreters’ qualities, this paper aims at providing the references for interpreting teaching in universities both for interpreting teachers and trainers.</em></p>

Early implantation and hearing and speech rehabilitation provide much wider opportunities to develop linguistic and communication skills for children with hearing impairment. The article presents own research, the aim of which was to determine the level of language competence of children with prelingual hearing deafness, which were implanted with a cochlear implant until the second year of life. The study involved a group of 169 children with prelingual hearing deafness. The tests used 6 Ling’s sounds, the MAIS scale, the MUSS scale and the TAPS test.

<p><em>Most engineering students today lack content in their subjects (technical &amp; non-technical) and are unable to perform in the job place because of their haziness.  Reports say that a majority of the engineering graduates in our nation find themselves  extremely difficult to seek employment opportunities.  These Engineering graduates lack content along with required skills for right employment.  To improve the content and confidence, there exists a need for integrating quality into the technical education system especially in the English language laboratory because every aspect of employment process includes good communication skills.   Laboratory is the only platform where a student can learn and improve many things within the academic schedule.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>The statistics of the AICTE reveals the facts that, with over 3,000 colleges in the nation<strong> </strong>churning out 14 lakh graduates annually, there tends to occur a dip in quality that can be overcome only with the parallel increase of facilities amongst other factors.  To bring about well-rounded graduates with the right technical and language competence, colleges must adopt student-centered method of learning which should aim at developing learner autonomy and independence.</em></p>

Fetal Alcohol Syndrone (FAS) is a syndrome with characteristic abnormalities resulting from prenatal exposure to ethanol. In many children with FAS syndrome gross pathological changes in the heart are seen with septal defects the most prevalent abnormality recorded. Few studies in animal models have been performed on the effects of ethanol on heart development. In our laboratory, it has been observed that prenatal ethanol exposure of Swiss albino mice results in abnormal cardiac muscle ultrastructure when mice were examined at birth and compared to pairfed and normal controls. Fig. 1 is an example of the changes that are seen in the ethanol-exposed animals. These changes include enlarged mitochondria with loss of inner mitochondrial membrane integrity and loss of myofibrils. Morphometric analysis substantiated the presence of these alterations from normal cardiac ultrastructure. The present work was undertaken to determine if the pathological changes seen in the newborn mice prenatally exposed to ethanol could be reversed with age and abstinence.
