EDITION 2.1

Preface

We developed the first edition of this Anatomy and Physiology textbook in 2020, shortly after the COVID-19 Pandemic began. Reducing the costs of study materials would help rising Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) progress toward their certification without interruptions due to financial setbacks. Developing the Open Education Resource (OER) Anatomy and Physiology textbook was our first step in an ongoing effort to support future SLPs.

A large part of this book derived from various OpenStax textbook series. OpenStax is a nonprofit organization based out of Rice University in Houston, Texas. Its open resource textbooks cover a vast amount of information for two-semester core curriculum courses in various disciplines. OpenStax generously permits educators to use their books' content in part or in whole to develop textbooks customized for each instructor's course structure. The present textbook's OpenStax content is color-coded in black ink. Additional information concerning communication sciences and disorders appears in blue ink. The original OpenStax texts are accessible free of charge at https://openstax.org/subjects. This textbook includes applicable content from the OpenStax books Anatomy and Physiology, Psychology, and Biology for AP® Course.

This textbook contains various images produced by the third author, renowned Dr. Willard R. Zemlin (1929-1998), with permission. Dr. Zemlin was one of the most influential scholars in anatomy and physiology concerning communication sciences and disorders. Dr. Zemlin's son, Mr. Karl Zemlin, kindly sharpened numerous images for this book to provide high-resolution pictures. At Mr. Zemlin's suggestion, Dr. Zemlin is included as a co-author of this edition. Mr. Zemlin expressed his appreciation for the generosity of those who donated their bodies to science throughout his father's studies. A comprehensive collection of Dr. Zemlin's work is accessible at his memorial website http://zemlin.shs.uiuc.edu/zemlinBio.htm of which Mr. Zemlin is the webmaster.

The current edition also incorporates additional images from Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia Commons website offers various information under Creative Common (CC) licenses, allowing the use and remix of the materials. This textbook would not have been possible without the contributions of OpenStax, Mr. Karl Zemlin, and generous providers of Wiki Common resources. We sincerely appreciate their generosity. Also, the authors would like to acknowledge the assistance of the students who used the initial edition of this book last year. They provided valuable comments from the learners’ point of view for refining the content. We have made this textbook available for our future colleagues to gain entry-level scientific knowledge applicable for serving individuals with communication disorders.

This book, titled "Introduction to Phonetics for Communication Sciences," has been specifically designed to cater to the undergraduate phonetics course in the field of communication sciences and disorders. Its primary goal is to enable students to grasp the intricacies of speech sounds by utilizing their knowledge of anatomy and physiology, which are directly relevant to speech production. Consequently, this book incorporates a selection of foundational information extracted from an OER anatomy and physiology textbook by Levitt, Guigneaux, and Zemlin (2021), "Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology for Communication Sciences, Edition 2.1" for review.

The purpose of this textbook is to comprehensively address the coursework requirements, allowing for the customization of learning objectives to assist aspiring Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) effectively. In response to the onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020, the authors took the initiative to create their first Open Educational Resource (OER) textbook on anatomy and physiology. By reducing the financial burden associated with study materials, this initiative aims to facilitate the progress of rising SLPs toward their certification without any interruptions caused by financial constraints. The authors view the development of OER materials as an ongoing endeavor driven by their commitment to supporting future colleagues in the field.

This book incorporates images, illustrations, and information from various OER that allow others to adopt or remix their information in part or whole. The information from other OER sources is color-coded in black ink, and the content developed by the authors is presented in blue ink. Citations for all images, illustrations, and information that the authors do not originate are provided on each page. The authors sincerely appreciate the work of those who have shared their valuable resources under Creative Commons (CC) license.

The authors of this textbook aspire to ignite a sense of fascination in beginning learners as they delve into the captivating realm of speech production. With this goal in mind, the authors have made this textbook readily accessible to future colleagues who seek to acquire foundational scientific knowledge that can be applied in serving individuals with communication disorders.

In this assignment, students will collaborate in pairs to create a video tutorial over an assigned muscle. The goal is to create a detailed educational resource that can be utilized and shared by future learners studying anatomy and physiology. The video tutorial will cover the muscle’s location, origin, insertions, and actions by demonstrating a common movement involving the muscle.

Preface

Neural Foundations of Communication was developed for undergraduate neurology classes in the study of communication sciences and disorders. Anatomy and Physiology is a prerequisite to gain an understanding of neurology as it relates to communication. As such, this book contains some of the foundational information from the anatomy textbook, “Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology for Communication Sciences” for review.

The authors intended to cover the coursework with this textbook to customize the sequence of learning objectives and support rising Speech-Language Pathologists. We developed our first open educational resource (OER) textbook in 2020, shortly after the COVID-19 Pandemic began. Reducing the costs of study materials helps rising SLPs progress toward their certification without interruptions due to financial constraints. Developing the Open Education Resource (OER) resources is our ongoing effort to support future SLPs.
