Unit 2.1 DB: Aphasia – Sarah and Byron
Watch the videos provided in readings and resources. Explain how the symptoms of Sarah Scott and Byron Peterson help us to identify the areas of the brain responsible for linguistic processing. How does our study of aphasia help to trace the workings of the brain as it engages in auditory processing and decoding of incoming messages, and formulation and production of outgoing messages? Describe a treatment or intervention for a stroke patient from one scholarly article you have researched to share with the class.

These infant language samples highlight developmental milestones in early language acquisition. However, the parent characterizes the stages as more advanced than the baby really is (please ignore the parent’s categories in the video). The four stages illustrated in the video are: Quasi-resonant nuclei, Babbling, Jargon, First words and imitation.

Patricia Kuhl discusses the ‘critical period†for learning language, the importance of social interaction for language acquisition, and the major developments in brain imaging that may have broad implications, not just for our understanding of linguistic development, but for designing brain-based interventions.
