Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Learning objectives:
In this seminar, students will gain knowledge on the behavioural and neurobiological characteristics underlying speech and language impairments. Although both acquired and developmental disorders are dealt with, special emphasis shall be put on the development of these impairments in children. After this class, students will be capable of distinguishing the most common speech and language disorders since they will have sufficient knowledge to (theoretically) diagnose and assess them. Additionally, they will be able to classify speech and language disorders based on their major neurobiological characteristics.
Course description: The seminar, which will take place entirely in English and will be co-taught by Dr Sabrina Turker. It provides an introduction to speech-language-pathology and in-depth lectures to all frequently encountered speech and language disorders in children and adults. There are no prerequisites for taking this seminar. Solid knowledge of spoken and written English is, however, required.

• The study of language: an introduction
• Acquired speech and language disorders in children and adults
o Aphasia
o Dysarthria
o Apraxia of speech
Sessions 2 (October 23, 2024):
• Developmental language disorders in children
o Developmental language disorder / specific language impairment
(Presentation 1)
o Developmental dyslexia (Lese-Rechtschreibschwäche/Legasthenie)
(Presentation 2)

o Autism spectrum disorders
o Attention deficit (hyperactivity) disorder
(Presentation 3)
o Down Syndrome
o Williams Syndrome
(Presentation 4)
Session 4 (November 20, 2024):
• Speech and language impairments in other disorders
o Dementia
(Presentation 5)
o Parkinson’s disease
(Presentation 6)
Session 5 (December 11, 2024):
• Neurobiological characteristics of speech and language disorders
• Non-invasive brain stimulation as a tool for targeted pre- and intervention of speech and language disorders
(Presentations 7 & 8)
Session 6 (January 8, 2024):
• The genetic culprits of speech and language disorders
• Revision and preparation for oral exam
Session 7 (January 22, 2024): Oral exams

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

The grade will be based on 1) the oral presentation of a scientific article (40% of grade), 2) an oral exam designed to assess integration and understanding of the material presented in the course and of mandatory readings (40% of grade) and 3) class participation (20% of grade).

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

To pass this seminar, students will be required to present a scientific paper (40%), pass an oral exam (40%) and participate actively in the seminar, asking questions and contributing to discussions (20%). Also, to receive credit for the seminar, students cannot miss more than one session and can only deregister within the first 2 days after the first session– this is October 11th! After that, deregistrations will result in an insufficient grade. Moreover, should students miss a session, they will be asked to complete an extra assignment on the topic of the missed lecture.

Based on the achieved points for their presentation, active participation and the oral exam (total: 100 points / 100%), students will be graded after the following scheme:

• 100 – 88% = 1 (Sehr gut)
• 87 – 75% = 2 (Gut)
• 74 – 62% = 3 (Befriedigend)
• 62 – 50%= 4 (Genügend)
• 49 – 0% = 5 (Nicht Genügend)

Prüfungsstoff

The content of the lectures, the readings and the discussions that take place during the seminar will be relevant for the oral exam.
