Clinical Case Studies of Children with Articulation and Phonological Disorders

An engaging new resource for those studying or teaching courses in phonetics, articulation disorders, diagnostics, or clinic practicum, Clinical Case Studies of Children with Articulation and Phonological Disorders, features carefully selected case studies of children with articulation and phonological disorders that demonstrate the practical application of phonetic transcription, learning of assessment procedures, and development of possible therapy goals.

Unique benefits of this video resource:

• Illustrates the importance of the informal assessment to facilitate a thorough review of the client's communication skills, as opposed to simply listening to an audio-recorded speech sample.
• Remedies the limited exposure to phonetics students receive before entering their graduate program in communication sciences and disorders.
• Saves supervisors time by addressing clinical practicum skills a graduate student is expected to know.

One-of-a-kind in that it is the only product to use multiple case studies to demonstrate both the evaluation and possible interventions--through a range of illustrative, video-based case studies; an administered standardized measure; and speech samples--this DVD also provides visual stimuli shown simultaneously with a child speaking, critical in understanding normal articulation and phonological development. Additionally, students can practice their transcription skills with immediate feedback by comparing their answers to a sample transcription.

This DVD is an invaluable educational and self-assessment resource for the student, instructor, or speech-language pathologist at any level.
