Pediatric Speech and Language Disorders

Test Preparation

Course Introduction

This course provides an in-depth exploration of speech and language disorders affecting children from infancy through adolescence. Students will examine the typical development of speech and language, identify deviations from normative milestones, and analyze the etiology, characteristics, and classification of various pediatric disorders, including articulation, phonological, fluency, voice, and language impairments. Emphasis is placed on evidence-based assessment tools, diagnostic procedures, and intervention strategies tailored to the diverse needs of pediatric populations. Additionally, the course addresses the impact of cultural, familial, and social factors on communication disorders and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration for effective management and support.
