Unique speech-language therapy: Wonderful websites with practical therapy tips (available in full-day and 1/2 day formats)
This hands-on course is designed to meet the needs of speech-language pathologists serving school-age children and adolescents with various communication difficulties by providing them with original and exciting ways to motivate and teach students. Creative ideas will be shared on how to put new spins on traditional speech-language therapy by introducing various websites that can be used as fun and functional digital therapy materials. Participants will be involved in discussions related to skills and foundational knowledge.
Infusing video game experiences in school-aged stuttering therapy and beyond (available in full-day and 1/2 day formats)
In this modern age, a substantial amount of children and adults happily play video games and consider themselves to be "gamers." Speech-language pathologists who provide therapy to individuals diagnosed with a fluency disorder (and other communication disorders) can benefit from the intentional utilization of mobile and Internet-based video games within the therapy experience. The purpose of this workshop is to discuss and demonstrate video games as a means for helping school-aged children to learn more about their particular communication challenge, and to grow as effective communicators.
