Stuttering is a communication disorder characterized by involuntary disruptions in speech such as repeating or prolonging sounds. It affects more males than females and can cause anxiety and avoidance behaviors. While there is no cure, speech therapy is effective in treating stuttering through techniques like altered auditory feedback. Teachers can help students who stutter by calling on them early, allowing extra time to answer, and having students read in pairs.

Stuttering Or Stammering
The document provides an overview of stuttering, including its definition, causes, treatment approaches, and tips for interacting with someone who stutters. It notes that stuttering involves involuntary repetitions and prolongations of sounds that interrupt speech. Treatment focuses on modifying stuttering rather than eliminating it to reduce fear and anxiety. The document recommends not drawing attention to failures, being patient and understanding, and seeking help from a specialist.
stammering
Stammering is a speech problem that causes low self-esteem in children. Some tips to help children overcome stammering include slowing down their speech, maintaining eye contact, not interrupting them or finishing their sentences, and encouraging them to speak as often as possible in a supportive environment. Aphasia is a disorder caused by brain damage that affects speaking, listening, reading, and writing. While some may recover on their own, speech therapy is often helpful and aims to improve communication through restoring language abilities and learning new methods. Family support plays an important role by simplifying language and including the person in conversations.
Stuttering and stammering
Stuttering and stammering refer to the same speech disorder characterized by involuntary repetitions or prolongations of sounds, syllables, words or phrases as well as blocks of speech. It affects less than 1% of adults but is most common in children during language development. Symptoms include repetitions, hesitations, difficulties starting words, rapid blinking and tension in the face and body. While stress and anxiety do not cause stuttering, they can trigger episodes in those with the disorder. Treatment involves learning strategies from speech therapists to control speech rate and use techniques like modification therapy or fluency shaping therapy to manage stuttering.
Management of stuttering
The document outlines the general therapeutic plan and various treatment approaches used by speech language pathologists for managing stuttering. The plan typically involves assessment, goal setting, selection of therapy approaches, transfer of skills to natural environments, follow up and maintenance. Key approaches discussed include shaping stutter-free speech, modification therapy, integrating the two, use of mechanical devices, counseling and various techniques for children including environmental manipulation, direct work, desensitization and parent-child interaction therapy. Transfer, maintenance and follow up play important roles in ensuring new skills are maintained over time.
Social effects of speech disorders
The document discusses speech disorders, their classification, causes, treatment and social effects. It notes that speech disorders can negatively impact a child's educational performance, social and emotional development. Children with speech disorders may be targets of bullying resulting in lower self-esteem, though bullying tends to decrease as people age and become more understanding. Speech therapy can help improve communication skills and lead to better educational, social and emotional experiences for children with speech disorders.
Conquering Public Speaking Fears
The document discusses causes of public speaking stress and tips for overcoming fear of public speaking. Some common causes of stress include thinking you need to be perfect, trying to please everyone, and being fearful of potential negative outcomes. Effective techniques include making eye contact with the audience, using gestures, asking rhetorical questions, and gaining experience. It's important to relax the body, visualize successfully giving the speech, and turn nervousness into positive energy. The audience provides both positive feedback like smiling and nodding, and negative feedback like frowning or fidgeting.
JMiller Topic Presentation
This document discusses considerations for students with speech/language delays or communication disabilities as well as those who are deaf or have hearing loss. For speech/language delays, early intervention is important for equal language development compared to peers. Teachers should reduce distractions, use visual aids and written directions, and allow flexible grouping. For deaf/hearing loss students, teachers must be trained in communication strategies and an interpreter or assistive technology may be needed. Noise should be reduced and visual communication modes incorporated for deaf students to learn best.
Cluttering
Cluttering is a fluency disorder characterized by a rapid and/or irregular speaking rate, excessive disfluencies like filler words and revisions, and sometimes other issues like language errors or attention deficits. It differs from stuttering in that people who clutter often do not know what they want to say or how to say it clearly. They speak too fast or in a jerky manner with improper pauses. Treatment involves speech therapy to help reduce speaking rate, improve self-monitoring of speech, and practice careful enunciation. While the cause is unknown, it may involve abnormal brain development affecting speech rate control and language planning.

Hearing, Speech and Language Impairment
Hearing impairment is defined as any hearing loss that affects educational performance but is not deafness. There are four categories of hearing loss based on location: conductive, sensorineural, mixed, and central. Common signs are difficulty hearing or understanding speech. In school, students may struggle with subjects involving listening, note-taking, discussions, and videos. Teachers and parents can help by designating note-takers, using assistive technology, ensuring proper seating, and not underestimating intelligence due to impairment.
National Stuttering Awareness Week
Stuttering affects speech fluency through disruptions like repetitions, prolongations, and blocks. It typically emerges between ages 2-13 and can have physiological causes in the respiratory, phonatory, and articulatory systems, as well as psychological factors like negative emotions, teasing, and avoidance. Treatments aim to establish strategies for fluent speech and increase patient confidence through techniques like fluency shaping, rate control, and positive self-talk. National organizations provide more information on stuttering.

1) Most people experience nervousness when public speaking, which is a normal reaction. Fear of public speaking, known as glossophobia, affects about 3 out of 4 people.
2) To give a good public speech, speakers should believe in themselves, wear comfortable clothes to feel confident, make eye contact with the audience, and use body language and a clear voice to emphasize points.
3) Visual aids like power point slides can help audiences follow along if they contain necessary information, pictures, and well organized text and colors. Overcoming the fear of public speaking takes practice since it is a skill needed throughout life.
Language disorders
Language disorders involve problems processing linguistic information and can affect grammar, semantics, comprehension, production, or a combination. Receptive language disorders impair comprehension while expressive disorders affect language production. Symptoms vary but can include not listening, lack of interest in stories, inability to understand complex sentences, and language skills below age level. Communication disorders also impact ability to communicate through speech, writing, or sign language. Specific disorders discussed include dyslexia, dysgraphia, stuttering, Down syndrome, autism, and ADHD.

Language impairment Presentation
This presentation discusses late talkers and specific language impairment. Late talkers are identified at age 2 when they produce fewer than 50 words and do not combine words. Specific language impairment is a language impairment without other issues, where nonverbal skills are normal. It affects around 7% of children and persists into adulthood. The presentation reviews predicting, diagnosing, and helping late talkers versus those with specific language impairment. Parents and teachers can help late talkers through techniques like self-talk, parallel talk, and expanding on a child's words. A speech pathologist diagnoses specific language impairment through language testing.
Ditch your verbal crutch for clearer communication
The document discusses verbal crutches like fillers, hedges and qualifiers that people use when speaking to hold thoughts or fill pauses but don't add meaning. It provides tips from experts on how to identify and eliminate unnecessary words to communicate more clearly, including recording yourself, pausing instead of filling silence, and getting feedback from others. Young people especially rely on verbal crutches, but can learn to vary their speech depending on the context and audience. Developing strong articulation, inflection, and vocabulary allows people to express themselves powerfully without extra words weakening the message.
Speech and language disorders in children.pptx
Speech and language disorders in children can take several forms:
Stuttering is when the flow of speech is disrupted through repetitions, extensions of sounds, or difficulty pronouncing words. Apraxia affects motor skills needed for speech production. Children may have trouble forming sounds or abnormal speech rhythm and pitch. Common disorders include stuttering, lisps where 's' sounds come out as 'th', messy speech with too many filler words or sounds, and speech delays where children do not attempt verbal communication. Seeing a speech therapist early is important to diagnose and treat these disorders to reduce the chances of long-term problems.
