The Sound Localization Guidebook Prototype
Place the sound source on a desk or hold it above the head 
of the learner and ask:
  3.   Is it above your head?-below your ear level?
Vary the volume of the sound source and ask:
  4.   Does it sound like the sound source is moving toward 
you (increasing volume)?
  5.   Does it sound like the sound source is moving away 
from you (decreasing volume)?
The sound source is not moved, only the volume
is changed.
Activity Eight: Requiring complex responses
A larger area is required for the suggested conditions.
  1.   Place the sound source in the bottom of a large box 
and toss bean bags or small playground balls toward 
and into the box. In the beginning, toss from a 
position relatively close to the box. When retrieving 
the bean bag or ball, indicate the distance from the 
sound source to the throwing line.
  2.   Place the sound source directionally behind an object 
(e.g., bowling pin, Indian club) and practice tossing, 
rolling, or throwing a ball in a specifi c direction.
