Prerequisite(s): ENG 281 or ENG 282 or ENG 412A or SPA 320 ; ENG 303 or Junior standing. ENG 412A is strongly recommended.
Grading Basis: Graded
Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Fall - Odd Years
Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. describe the roles played by the parts of the human vocal tract in the production of speech sounds.
2. characterize the principal acoustic properties of each category of speech sound.
3. make basic interpretations of spectrograms and waveforms.
4. design, run, and analyze the results of a speech-production experiment.
5. distinguish between sound and unsound interpretations of scientific information by applying the scientific method to formulate, evaluate, and revise hypotheses about phonetic phenomena.
