Disorders of Articulation and Phonology
Midterm Exam
Course Introduction
This course explores the nature, assessment, and treatment of articulation and phonological disorders in children and adults. It covers typical versus atypical speech sound development, classification and characteristics of speech sound disorders, and relevant theoretical models. Students will learn about etiological factors, diagnostic procedures, and evidence-based intervention strategies, emphasizing both traditional and phonological approaches. The course also incorporates case studies and practical activities to develop clinical decision-making skills for effective management of individuals with articulation and phonological difficulties.
