Speech therapy is the
discipline that deals with the process of human communicative
interaction, seen as an intentional and meaningful exchange of
messages between two or more aware/conscious individuals, intended
to exchange knowledge. Logopedia looks for comfort, easiness and
correctness of people to foster their adequate educational and
social role.
Knowledge management is an extremely important subject
for the speech therapist, that can use its principles and
technologies to make learning and/or rehabilitation of linguistic
communication functions more effective. The knowledge cycle on which
the linguistic dimension is based from the expressive and cognitive
viewpoint cannot stop at the simple data transmission: data are the
"coarse/rough" material, and often overabundant of information. Even
information, it is, selected and organized data, is not enough to
guarantee effective communication.
Communication must be based and
orientated to knowledge "transmission", intended as an organized
cognitive semantic structure.
