THIS BOOK IS DESIGNED PRIMARILY FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE BEING TRAINED TO WORK WITH SPEECH HANDICAPPED SCHOOL CHILDREN, EITHER AS SPEECH CORRECTIONISTS OR AS CLASSROOM TEACHERS. THE BOOK DEALS WITH FOUR MAJOR QUESTIONS--(1) WHAT KINDS OF SPEECH DISORDERS ARE FOUND AMONG SCHOOL CHILDREN, (2) WHAT ARE THE PHYSICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS, HEARING IMPAIRMENTS, AND OTHER FACTORS THAT ARE IMPORTANTLY RELATED TO THESE SPEECH PROBLEMS, (3) WHAT CAN THE CLASSROOM TEACHER DO ABOUT THEM, ON HER OWN OR IN COOPERATION WITH A SPEECH CORRECTIONIST, (4) WHAT ARE THE BASIC EXAMINATION METHODS AND REMEDIAL APPROACHES OF THE SPEECH CORRECTIONIST IN DEALING WITH THE PROBLEMS. CHAPTER ONE CONSIDERS THE AREA OF SPEECH DISORDERS AND SPEECH CORRECTION, WHILE CHAPTER TWO IS DEVOTED TO A DISCUSSION OF THE CLINICAL POINT OF VIEW IN EDUCATION. THE NEXT SIX CHAPTERS TREAT PARTICULAR DISORDERS INCLUDING THOSE OF ARTICULATION AND VOICE, STUTTERING, RETARDED SPEECH DEVELOPMENT, CLEFT PALATE, CEREBRAL PALSY, AND IMPAIRED HEARING. THE FINAL CHAPTER DEALS WITH THE PUBLIC SCHOOL REMEDIAL SPEECH PROGRAM. SEVEN APPENDIXES CONTAIN PROJECTS FOR STUDENTS, SUGGESTED TOPICS FOR TERM PAPERS, CLASS DEMONSTRATIONS OF PROBLEMS, AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS, SOME BASIC FEATURES OF SPEECH SOUND ARTICULATION, ESTIMATING NATURAL PITCH LEVEL, AND AN OPEN LETTER TO THE MOTHER OF A STUTTERING CHILD.
