To understand the science and the clinical application of phonetics, extensive practice is essential. Phonetic Science for Clinical Practice: A Transcription and Application Workbook, Second Edition is designed to aid instructors in the delivery of content and to enhance opportunity for student practice alongside the textbook, Phonetic Science for Clinical Practice, Second Edition.
This workbook emphasizes the understanding of the science behind the practical application of phonetics and the scientific connection to hearing and speech sciences. It allows students to practice phonetic transcription and includes a variety of practice exercises such as fill-in-the-blank, short-answer, and multiple creative transcription activities. The questions are closely connected to the textbook, allowing students to review chapter material and quiz themselves in an efficient manner. This workbook can also stand alone as a review of phonetics knowledge and skills for students who have previously taken a phonetics course.
The workbook comes with a PluralPlus companion website that features audio files for IPA symbols and particular words.

Kathy J. Jakielski
Kathy J. Jakielski, PhD, CCC-SLP, ASHA Fellow, is Professor Emerita in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. With phonetic science undergirding all her work, she has over 40 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults with severe speech impairment, and over 30 years of research experience in genetic bases, differential diagnosis, and intervention efficacy on children with speech sound disorders, including childhood apraxia of speech. Most importantly, she taught an introduction to phonetics course to undergraduate students continuously for over 25 years. After retiring from academia in the summer of 2022, she and her husband moved to Cambodia to work as full-time volunteers for several non-governmental organizations. Always the phonetics student, she now spends her free time trying to accurately transcribe, understand, and speak Khmer.
Christina Gildersleeve-Neumann
Christina E. Gildersleeve-Neumann, PhD, CCC-SLP, ASHA Fellow, is Professor and Department Chair in the Speech and Hearing Sciences Department at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon. She first fell in love with phonetics when she was an undergraduate majoring in German, discovering how a set of symbols could capture the spoken similarities and differences between the many languages she was dabbling in then. This fascination with sound carried her through a first career in international education, later becoming her focus as a graduate student discovering the field of communication sciences and disorders. She has now spent 27 years as a speech-language pathologist and 23 years as a professor, focusing her research, clinical, and academic expertise on speech sound development and disorders in monolingual and bilingual children. The first class she ever taught was phonetics, and it remains her favorite to this day.
Phonetic Science for Clinical Practice Bundle (Textbook and Workbook)
This bundle includes the 'Phonetic Science for Clinical Practice, Second Edition textbook and companion transcription and application workbook. The books are intended to serve as an introductory, one-term resource for undergraduate phonetics courses in communication sciences and disorders.
The textbook begins by introducing the fundamental tool of transcription-the International Phonetic Alphabet-while also presenting the science underlying that set of symbols. The goal of this text is to teach students how to think about the data being transcribed-in other words, how to think like a phonetician. Every chapter begins with Learning Objectives and an Applied Science problem and question-a research- or clinical-based question that can be answered by applying the phonetic science concepts covered in that chapter. By the end of the chapter, students will revisit the question and be asked to solve the problem posed. Students studying communication sciences and disorders and practicing speech-language pathologists or audiologists will be more successful in their clinical work if they understand the science that underlies the tool of transcription. In each chapter there are also several diverse clinical examples to review the application of concepts covered.
The workbook allows students to practice phonetic transcription and includes a variety of practice exercises such as fill-in-the-blank, short-answer, and multiple creative transcription activities. The questions are closely connected to the textbook, allowing students to review chapter material and quiz themselves in an efficient manner.
Both books in the bundle come with access to supplementary materials on a PluralPlus companion website. See the inside front covers of each book for instructions.
