and Phonological Disorders, 5th ed., Boston: Allyn and Bacon. The purpose of this course is to help you understand, assess, and treat articulation and phonological disorders in children. The emphasis will be on "functional" disorders but organically based problems also will receive attention. We will be doing phonetic transcription throughout the entire course. We will be transcribing disordered speech, assessing it on the basis of your transcriptions, looking for error or rule patterns in the transcriptions, and discussing appropriate intervention strategies. All phonetic symbols used will be from Edwards so please review your Phonetics text if you are not comfortable with your recall of the symbols. Each Thursday we will have a 10-20 minute transcription quiz. Each Tuesday we will spend some time reviewing the previous quiz, identifying patterns of errors, and discussing the diagnostic implications of the errors. The transcriptions will become longer and more difficult as the course progresses. In the last few weeks of the course you not only will be transcribing the speech but writing rules for the errors you hear. As usual, I do not have an attendance policy and will not take roll. However, you will be actively involved in this course and your involvement presumes your presence. In particular, Thursdays will be very important. All transcription exercises will be given live-voice and there will be no opportunity for make-ups. Your absence will cost you a 0 for that exercise. Your grade for the course will be based on 12 transcription exercises, a mid-term examination, and a final examination. Transcription exercise 1 will be a warm-up and, though graded, will not count toward your course grade. Transcription exercises 2-5 will count collectively as a 100 point test; exercises 6-8 will count collectively as a 100 point test; exercises 9-10 will count collectively as a 100 point test; and exercises 11-12 will count collectively as a 150 point test. The mid-term exam will consist of True/False and Multiple Choice items, be worth 100 points and count as one test. The Final Examination will consist of two parts: a 150 point transcription exercise of a Goldman-Fristoe Test and a 100 point True/False and Multiple Choice section. Each part will count as one test. Thus, there will be a total of 800 points across 7 examinations. Your final grade will be based on your average of these 7 tests as follows:
The examination schedule is as follows:
Thursday, May 6th, 4:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. Final Examination 100 points Examination 5
