Because writing and reading make up the majority of learning all subject areas, it is important to develop programs and assessments geared toward reading disorders in this case articulation. While most educators agree teaching students with disorders is a challenge, the technological world opened the door to new ideas and insights of articulation techniques. This paper discusses articulation disorder, articulation disorders studies, and best methods to treat articulation disorders. This research will also point out the importance of speech pathologist to treat this disorders.
I asked my twelve year old daughter the other day, “Would you like to learn how to play and instrument?” She responded sarcastically, “I don’t know how to play and I wouldn’t be any good!” Learning something for the first time takes patience, time, and will. As with the English language, every child has struggled at one point in their pursuit to communicate. Of course, medical conditions, such as hearing loss, cleft palate, or brain damage may cause articulation problems but much can be said in the advancement of educational guidance for educators to overcome the disorder. This literature will prove the importance of extra time spend on treatment gives students with an articulation disorder a better chance for overcoming the disorder. This literature review will discuss: 1. articulation disorder 2. articulation disorder studies 3. the use of speech pathologist By definition, articulation disorder is “The inability to correctly produce speech sounds (phonemes) because of the imprecise placement, timing, pressure, speed, or flow of movement of the lips, tongue, or throat.
