An explanation of the page
The field of audiology is one that can be broken up into several subcategories and branches. This page will focus on the content and subject matters pertaining to the components that make up audiology in academia and research. Though audiologists work in hospitals, in clinics, and have their own private practices, their work in these settings is crucial to truly understanding the ear, hearing, and balance. The components of audiology are information, knowledge, expertise, evidence/proof, research, argument, discourse communities, and communication conventions. Many of these fields overlap in order to make the field effective and cohesive. These pages will break the components into three different sets. The sets are categorized based on their relation to one another. Though all of the fields overlap quite a bit, some are related to each other because of their flow. Some of the components will appear in more than one set because their contribution to the other components is integral. Set 1 is composed of the components information, knowledge, expertise, evidence, and proof and will be under the tab "What We Know!" Set 2 is composed of the components argument, research,information, evidence, and proof and will be under the tab "How We Know It!" Set 3 is composed of the components discourse communities, communication conventions, information, and expertise and will be under the tab "How We Share It!"
