Sound Management: Evidence-Based Practice for Speech Sound Disorders in Children
| Presenter: Lynn Williams |
June
8-9, 2009 |
8:30
am - 4:30 pm |
Presenter
Dr. Lynn Williams is Associate Director of the Center of Excellence in Early Childhood Learning and Development and a full professor at East Tennessee State University. Her recent work includes development of the multiple oppositions phonological intervention approach that has been the basis of federally funded intervention studies by the National Institutes of Health (NIH); authored several articles in a variety of journals, as well as published numerous book chapters; developed a phonological intervention software program called Sound Contrasts in Phonology (SCIP) that was funded by NIH; authored a book Speech Disorders Resource Guide for Preschool Children; and served as associate editor of Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in the Schools. Lynn is currently editing a book with Dr. Sharynne McLeod and Rebecca McCauley titled Interventions for Speech Sound Disorders in Children. Lynn is a Fellow of ASHA.
Course Description
Clinicians are faced with new ideas to consider and information to integrate into clinical application at a pace that often makes it difficult to implement into clinical practice. The time required to learn the new approaches, to develop the individualized treatment materials, and to implement the new procedures are frequently beyond the scope of already burdened daily schedules. This workshop is for clinicians who want to keep current with the pace of recent advances in the assessment and treatment of speech sound disorders in children. Models of assessment, target selection approaches, and current models of phonological intervention will be discussed.
Objectives
Participants will be able to:
- Complete phonological analyses of disordered speech using an error analysis (PVM analysis) and a systemic analysis (SPACS).\
- Apply current research evidence to design and implement an appropriate methodology for a child’s speech sound disorder.
- Use clinical reasoning to select the most appropriate models for phonological analysis, target selection, and intervention.
Language/Literacy for Students with Differences and Disorders: Building Bridges Across the Curriculum
| Presenter: Carol Westby |
June 10-11, 2009 |
8:30 am - 4:30 pm |
Presenter
Dr. Westby is a fellow of the American-Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), holds Specialty Recognition in Child Language, and has received the Honors of the Association. She has been principal investigator for Project WrITE (Writing Integrative Texts Effectively), which investigated the use of the New Mexico writing portfolio assessment with general and special education students in fourth and sixth grades, Project TALES (Talking about Life Experiences and Stories) which promoted reading and writing development in Native American students, and Project BRIDGE (Building Reading in Diverse Groups in Education), a personnel preparation program that prepared graduate students in speech-language pathology to work within classrooms to facilitate language-literacy development of children from Hispanic and Native American backgrounds. Dr. Westby has been a visiting professor at Flinders University in Australia, where she developed coursework for a graduate certificate in language and literacy and at Brigham Young University where she consulted on research in emergent literacy and teaching of expository text and on clinical work with students with autism and ADHD. She has published and presented nationally and internationally on language-literacy relationships, narrative development and facilitation, assessment and facilitation of written language, and issues in assessment and intervention with culturally/ linguistically diverse populations. She has several book chapters that present frameworks for literate language assessment and intervention. She has a BA in English from Geneva College and an MA and PhD in Speech Pathology from the University of Iowa.
Course Description
Schools are working to address the literacy learning needs of ALL students, using evidence-based practices to do so and evaluating effectiveness of instruction. Students’ language skills are highly predictive of their academic performance. Literacy is an extension of language development and, consequently, entails more than decoding words on a page. Students must comprehend what they decode, including vocabulary and syntactic structures as well as “reading between the lines”. Reading between the lines and recognizing relationships across texts requires that students bring their understanding of social relationships to academic tasks. In this seminar, participants will learn (a) the characteristics of academic language, (b) the links between social and academic language, (c) strategies for evaluating students’ academic language, and (d) strategies for developing comprehension of narrative and expository texts.
Objectives
Participants will be able to
- Describe the language requirements for standards and benchmarks in the school curriculum
- Describe the literacy learning needs of students with dyslexia, language-learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, and ADHD
- Assess students' microstructure and macrostructure language skills for narrative and expository texts
- Explain the relationship between social and academic language
- Develop lessons to facilitate students' social language and academic language in language arts, social studies, and science
