Exploring Communication Impairments and Educational Impact

This report provides an analysis of communication impairments and disorders affecting learners in educational settings. It explores the differences between normal and unusual communication patterns, including instances of language disorders and autism spectrum disorders. The report further investigates the interaction between delayed language acquisition, cognitive development, and sensory deficits, highlighting the impact on a child's learning and overall development. Communication disorders, including difficulties in speech and language, can lead to academic challenges, social difficulties, and behavioral issues. The report also emphasizes the significance of early intervention and support to address these challenges and promote effective communication skills among learners.

INTRODUCTION
Communication plays a very important role in sharing information among people or
individuals and when communicating it involves various methods. In this report it involves the
communication impairments and disorders of learners in the education area. It also involves the
difference among the normal patterns of communication and the unusual patterns of
communication which are demonstrated by the learners with the language disorder and
significant development delay that also involves the autistic spectrum disorders. It further
involves the interaction between delayed language acquisition, cognitive development and
sensory deficit.
MAIN BODY
1.1 Communication impairments and disorders of learners in the education setting
A communication disorder basically involves the impairment in the ability to process,
receive, send and comprehend concepts that involves graphic symbol systems, non verbal and
verbal systems. In context to the communication disorder is a process that involves the speech,
language and language. Children with communication disorders are insufficient and poor at the
academic level, having a difficult understanding and expressing, struggle with reading, avoid
attending school, misunderstood social cues, showing poor judgement and also facing difficulties
with tests. In context to the student, it basically involves the communication disorders that
involves issues such as hearing, persistent problems with language and hearing. In context to
learning disorders it involves the writing, reading and arithmetic(Radhakrishnan, Taghizadeh
and Mathar, 2020).
The unknown factor involves the disorder which basically results in affecting the ability
of the brain for the purpose to process and receive information or data. In context to education
setting, communication skills are considered to be the foundation of the social and academic
performance and involves the capability to participate in the interactive and active
communication with the adults and peers in the educational setting in order to achieve success.
Problems or issues in the language and speech might lead to issues such as difficulty in writing,
listening, reading and speaking. In context to people who have communication disorders might
result in expressing language, insufficient and poor academic level, show poor judgement, avoid
attending school and difficulty in tests(Wise, 2020).

1.2 Difference between the normal patterns of communication and unusual patterns of
communication.
A normal communication basically involves the individuals who are able to express their
emotions, needs and thoughts. The process of communication is basically an intricate process
that includes hearing, celebration, motor coordination, speech production and cognition. The
Unusual speech or communication basically involves the Echolalia that includes the phrases
which have been heard previously or repetition of the words(Kakati and Arya, 2018). There is a
huge difference between the unusual patterns of communication and the normal patterns of the
communication. Human communication is basically a very complex problem and also involves
various several terms which involves the speech, communication and language and people get
confuse among these terms which leads to confusion and it is very important to understand these
terms and need to use them in a correct manner and while working with the people who have
communication disorders. The communication involves the three terms and basically involves
the exchange of feelings and ideas and also involves the language and speech while
communicating. Speech patterns or communication basically involves the diagnostic features. In
context to unusual patterns of communication it is far different from how the normal patterns of
communication takes place. There are various unusual patterns of communication that involves
weird ways of communicating that involves pucker up which basically involves communication
through whistle. The other unusual ways of communication involves drawing pictures or
yodeling etc.
In context to language disorder it basically involves the individuals who have difficulty in
understanding and having difficulty and problems in understanding what other person is saying.
It also involves problems related to hearing. In some cases language disorder involves receptive
expressive language disorder which is quite common problem in young people(Kelly, 2018). The
autism spectrum disorder basically involves a condition which involves brain development and
influences and shows impact on how the person socializes and perceives with others that also
involves leading problems such as communication and social interaction and such type of
disorder involves repetitive and limited patterns of the behaviour. In context to the autism it
involves majorly 3 main symptoms that involves children who have trouble with the non verbal
and verbal communication. It also involves a child who is socially awkward and delayed

milestones. The autism spectrum disorder starts from the childhood and causes various problems
in while functioning in the society such as work and school and basically involves children
normally in the first year and involves the period of regression between the 18 and 24 months.
1.3 Interaction between delayed language acquisition, cognitive development and sensory deficit.
A language delays is basically considered as the type of communication disorder which
can be judged if a child have a language delay it results in not meeting the language development
milestones at a particular age and involves might have slower language abilities as compare to
the other children. In context to cognitive development it basically involves how the children
figure out things, explore and think. It basically further involves the dispositions, development of
knowledge, problem solving and skills which also helps the children to understand and think
about the world around them. In context to cognitive development it involves the brain
development. In context to delayed language acquisition, sensory deficit and cognitive
development there is link and interaction between among these(Saul, Hirata and Weng, 2021).
In case of cognitive development it helps in contributing towards the child's overall
learning that helps in relating their knowledge in various situations. Language is considered to
very crucial when it comes to learning and involves various and different type of thoughts that
helps in storing information in a organised manner. It involves the cognitive skills and language
skills which are highly related to each other and involves stronger language skills which are
basically meant to be stronger cognitive skills. In context to children when they basically acquire
a first language they eventually start building their own that also involves the conceptual data
that discriminates and helps in creation of the various categories that involves relations, objects
and events.
CONCLUSION
From the above report it can be concluded that communications plays a very important
role and involves various forms which involves verbal communication, normal communication
and involves unusual way of communicating. It further helps in analysing the interaction among
the correlation in the cognitive development and language development. It also helps in
analysing the difference between the normal patterns of communication and unusual patterns of
communication.
