DLD in Early Childhood and Elementary School: Evidence-Based Intervention
Presenter(s): Rachel K Powell, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-CL
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This on demand webinar will define and discuss developmental language disorder (DLD) as it relates to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) regulations. The speaker will explore curriculum-based language assessment methods aligned to grade-level academic standards and share evidence-based interventions to treat DLD in early childhood and elementary school settings.
Credit(s): PDHs: 8.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.8
Summary: Studies have shown that grammar is foundational to a child’s communication and academic growth. SLPs who work with children with development language disorders (DLD) – regardless of the etiology of the disorder – need effective research-based grammar interventions in their toolbox. The articles in this journal self-study (selected from a Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools forum, “Morphosyntax Assessment and Intervention for Children”) describe evidence-based approaches for grammar assessment and treatment and provide tools to support goal-setting and progress monitoring. The articles discuss new approaches and practical implications for practice.

Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: Children with developmental language disorder (DLD) can demonstrate a range of characteristics and challenges, which can appear not only in their language abilities but also in their cognitive and motor abilities. This on demand webinar will give SLPs a deeper understanding of the common characteristics associated with DLD as well as individual differences among children with the disorder. The webinar will share examples of how to tailor vocabulary and reading interventions for children with DLD.
Credit(s): PDHs: 4.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.45
Summary: This SIG 1 Perspectives activity focuses on the relationship between language and executive function (EF) in children with specific language impairment (SLI) and/or developmental language disorder (DLD). A clinical model of language therapy for adolescents with DLD and concomitant EF deficits was proposed. Finally, a theoretical framework for understanding and promoting metacognition and EF as part of assessment and treatment plans for speech-language pathologists was discussed.
New On Demand Webinar
Presenter(s): Karolyn L Mirasola, MS, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: If you are an SLP who works with middle- and high-school-age students with developmental language disorder (DLD), you might have questions like: What is my role? Where do I start? Should I be targeting written language? How do I support comprehension? This on demand webinar will address these questions and more.
Assessment for Developmental Language Disorder
Presenter(s): Suzanne Adlof, PhD
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This webinar will provide information to help SLPs feel more confident during the challenging process of assessing and diagnosing children with developmental language disorder (DLD). The webinar will define, compare, and contrast the features associated with various assessment tools and discuss the rationale for different assessments. The speaker will address how to select the best assessment instrument for the particular child and how to utilize information gained to inform clinical decisions.
Presenter(s): Ginger G Collins, PhD, CCC-SLP ; Julie A Wolter, PhD, CCC-SLP; Ashley Bourque Meaux, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This presentation explores the foundational components of effective language-based assessment and intervention in a multilinguistic literacy approach, with a unique focus on morphological awareness for school-age students who struggle with language and/or literacy development. Speakers discuss functional assessment and treatment techniques for the school SLP, with a focus on individualized, small group, and classroom settings.
Presenter(s): Suzanne M. Adlof, PhD
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Dyslexia and developmental language disorders (DLD) – relatively common, language-based disorders that affect children’s reading and academic achievement as well as social and life outcomes – frequently co-occur in the same child. This session examines the differences between the two disorders, how to identify children at risk for either or both, and how to provide treatment and accommodations to promote positive outcomes. The speaker discusses evidence-based practices for assessing and treating reading difficulties.
Presenter(s): Kyomi Gregory, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This course discusses the role of teachers in the referral process for children and adolescents with developmental language disorder (DLD) who speak a nonmainstream dialect. The speaker discusses nonmainstream American English (NMAE) dialects, the role of interprofessional practice within the schools, teacher referrals for special education services, and guidelines that SLPs can use when collaborating with teachers to make appropriate referrals for students with DLD who speak NMAE.
Presenter(s): Kara B Corley, MS, CCC-SLP; Toby Loewenstein, MEd, MS, CCC-SLP; Victoria Sharaga, MS, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session provides instruction on creating and using readily producible visual aids (i.e., video play models, static play photos, Play Plan) to support executive function (EF), play, and narrative skills in preschoolers with DLD. The session discusses how EF difficulties present in preschoolers with DLD and strategies that can be immediately applied in intervention sessions and the classroom.
