Abstract
Two functions of the ear are described, one for the purpose of speech production, the other for the purpose of speech reception. The understanding of the differences is important for the clinician engaged in speech therapy with the hearing-impaired child. A therapy approach, based on the speech system as a servomechanism, is outlined utilizing the proprioceptive and tactile mechanisms as primary source information with the auditory as secondary.Keywords
