  • A separate set of DVDs are available containing both audio and video resources for additional practice in transcription.
  • Case studies at the beginning of each chapter highlight specific concepts of that particular chapter.  The case study is then followed throughout the chapter, demonstrating how the information could be applied in a real-life situation.
  • Learning aids are provided in the form of focus questions, concept exercises, further readings, key terms, critical thinking questions, and multiple choice questions.
  • A lengthy and thorough discussion of dialect including definitions, examples of regional dialects, ethnic dialects, and foreign dialects. 
  • A chapter in which the core information presented for phonetics and phonology is integrated into a series of case studies which apply this knowledge to the analysis of speech.  Examples include the analysis of regional dialects, emerging phonology, and a child with disordered articulation.
  • Phonetic transcription workbook is a separate entity at the end of the textbook.  This workbook guides students through a systematic learning process beginning with the identification of sounds within words, as opposed to letters, to transcribing multisyllabic words and short phrases.
