Summary: Morphological awareness (MA)-the ability to attend to and manipulate morphemes such as affixes and base words-impacts a variety of reading skills. All students, especially those with weak language and reading skills, can benefit from MA instruction to help them attend to and recognize frequently occurring morphemes in words they read, spell, and learn. This session discusses the implementation of MA instruction for at-risk and struggling readers in the elementary grades using high-utility morphemes through teacher-led and digital-based activities. A list of high-utility morphemes that teachers can use to choose instructional targets for each grade level is provided. This presentation also explores the impact of digital morphology instruction on student reading.

Summary: In this course, the presenter discusses logical fallacies that commonly occur in spoken and written discourse and the social implications of passively accepting biased, illogical, and inaccurate statements. These logical fallacies include, for example, the hasty generalization, the omission of evidence, circular reasoning, the anecdote, the slippery slope, the appeal to ridicule, and the false cause. The presenter explains why SLPs should assist adolescents to deconstruct logical fallacies and how they can do so while addressing students; skills in speaking, listening, reading, writing, and reasoning. The presenter takes an international and multidisciplinary approach, drawing from studies conducted by researchers around the world working in diverse professions (e.g., business, computer science, education, philosophy, psychology, and rhetoric).
