About

Developmental Speech Disorders is a CD-ROM that has been designed as a flexible resource for classroom and clinical use. Using an intuitive navigation chart, the CD-ROM demonstrates typical speech development beginning at the early stages of vocal development in infancy and continuing through age four. These clips can be compared with video clips of clients with mildly disordered, moderately disordered, and severely disordered speech development in the following age categories: 1-3 years, 3-5 years, 5-8 years, and 8+ years of age. Each video clip is accompanied by written descriptions of a brief case history, diagnosis, and other relevant information. There is also an assessment practice section that allows viewers to assess various video clips of clients according to severity.

This clinical archive can be used to support clinical teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels of Communication Sciences and Disorders. It can also be used for support of clinical teaching related to student practicum experiences at the Master's degree level in CSD.

Practicing clinicians can use this tool as a reference for themselves, as well as for the families of patients, to demonstrate the various degrees of developmental speech disorders.

Lisa M. Bedore

Lisa M. Bedore, PhD, has been on the faculty at UT Austin since 1999. Her research interests are in the areas of child language and phonological development and disorders with a special interest in Spanish-speaking children. In her research Dr. Bedore is particularly interested in how aspects of language form - phonology and morphology in particular interact with other aspects of language development. This interest has lead to a collaborative book project with Dr. Babs Davis on the acquisition of speech production and perception and how these interact in the child and in his or her environment. Her current research focuses on the manifestation on language impairment in bilingual children. She is currently a co- PI on 2 NIH funded research project studying risk for impairment in bilingual children between the ages of 4 and 7 years and to develop a tool for identifying language impairment in bilingual Spanish English speaking children between the ages of 7 and 9 years. Dr. Bedore was a was a co-recipient with Dr. Barbara Davis of the Silver Award in The Innovative Use of Instructional Technology Awards Program in 2003 and she is a two- time winner of the College of Communication Research Award at UT Austin.
