3.00 Credits
An introductory overview of the phenomena of language and communication development. The course covers the acquisition of phonology, morphology, syntax, and the lexicon, as well as the development of communicative competence. Each of these areas will be discussed with respect to production, comprehension, and knowledge. Prerequisite: LIN 185J. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
ADeaf instructor presents the culture and history of Deaf communities from a national and international perspective. Deaf communities are examined as cultural and linguistic minorities, with all the tensions and conflicts that arise within such minority groups and with the stresses that arise when outsiders interact with such minority groups. Some exposure to ASL is recommended, but not required. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
The basic principles of the structure and function of the neuromuscular mechanism necessary for spoken language will be presented. These include six major topics: respiration, phonation, articulation, resonance, the nervous system, and the auditory system. Mastering these fundamentals will enable students to better understand normal and pathological processes involved in the production and reception of speech. Prerequisite: grade of at least B in LIN 185J or permission of instructor. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the acoustical, articulatory, perceptual, and physiological aspects of speech. It considers the acoustic contributions of the movements and postures of various articulators. It will also examine the neurophysiology of speech, including timing, control, and interactions among articulators. Prerequisite: LIN 211 or permission of instructor. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will examine the auditory system with regard to its anatomy, and physiology and function. It will particularly focus on those aspects of the central auditory nervous system that have relevance to speech pathologists who have an interest in speech perception and central auditory processing. This course will provide the foundation for understanding certain aspects of aural rehabilitation and diagnosis of auditory pathology. Examples of brain pathology will be utilized. Prerequisite: LIN 211 or permission of instructor. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed for interpreting students and working interpreters, and focuses upon skills training in K-12 settings, with some attention to university- level interpreting. We address appropriate classroom configurations, teacher/interpreter interaction, role/responsibilities of the educational interpreter, and the code of ethics. Working educational interpreters are offered the option of a diagnostic session where their skills in the classroom are directly observed and evaluated with specific and individualized constructive feedback. Prerequisite: grade of at least B in ASL 202I or equivalent. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the major linguistic features of ASL and English. Students will gain an understanding of the basic similarities and differences in morphology, phonology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics, as well as the values, beliefs, and norms of the Deaf and non-Deaf communities. Prerequisite: ASL 102I and LIN 185J, or permission. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course looks at language as a capacity of the human brain. Models of language breakdown for spoken languages are reviewed, and the remainder of the course focuses upon signed language aphasia, the effects of Parkinson's disease on articulation and motor planning, and how spatial and attentional deficits caused by right hemisphere damage affect the processing and production of signing. Prerequisite: grade of at least B in LIN 185J. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to speech sounds, covering the basic elements of articulatory and acoustic phonetics and of speech perception. The course also reviews the process by which infants come to be competent at perceiving and producing the sounds of their native language. Topics discussed will also include the contributions of selected brain regions to the use of sounds and the cross-linguistic variation in sounds. Prerequisite: grade of at least B in LIN 185J. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the derivation of words in natural language. The course covers the sound system, the processes by which words are dynamically derived from other words, and the processes by which words are inflected to mark the roles they assume in sentences. Particular attention is also given to the great variety of word-building systems that occur in the world's languages and to the means by which children acquire the phonological and morphological processes of their native language. Prerequisite: grade of at least B in LIN 185J. Cr 3.
