43
Q

what is neuroplasticity?

A

Capacity of the nervous system for change

44
Q

What is intrinsic learning?

A

Internally, there will be change in their practice patterns because of their feedback mechanisms

45
Q

What is extrinsic learning?

A

provide them with strategies and activities that will stimulate them in the perspective of motor speech. We’re going to provide them with motor experience to learn speech motor movements and to develop their PRAXIS and execution.
