Year: 1992

Type: conference-abstract

Abstract: The Speech Communication Technical Committee has formed a subcommittee to investigate educational issues related to the instruction of speech acoustics. The Education Subcommittee is initially focusing their efforts on core issues that cut across the different disciplines represented in Speech Communication. The purpose of this report is to share the findings of a recent questionnaire sent to the Speech Communication and Psychological and Physiological Acoustics membership. Data will be reported on the scope of acoustic training, the common acoustic topics taught across disciplines, the types of software used to teach speech acoustics, the type of textbooks used, the type of handouts used to augment lectures, the type of video/audio materials used as demonstrations, and the type of laboratory experiences available to students. In addition, this presentation will review the types of laboratory equipment used to train students in basic and speech acoustics.
