This blog is a production of a class taken at UNCG which specializes in concepts in communication sciences. My particular topic was Dysarthria, which is a motor speech disorder resulting from neurological injury. The research presented is real and accurate. It tries to make people more aware of Dysarthria and how it affects more people than we presume it to.

Objectives For this Blog:
- To understand a working definition of what Dysarthria is, and how neurological injury affects speech.
- To examine how Dysarthria is different from other speech disorders such as Apraxia. Conversely, one will also be able to see how Friedreich's Apraxia Dysarthria does not have well developed research in how intelligibility and phonetics are affected in this disease.
- To give people a view at how Dysarthria is a neurological issue that affects more than just people in the USA, but instead, also people in other parts of the world.
