SUMMARY:Empowering Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Users - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:As speech-language pathologists\, we understand the complexity of communication and the importance of functional communication skills for any individual\, but more specifically\, for a child. Through the implementation of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)\, we can provide an immediate means of communication for children with speech/language delays and disorders. Unfortunately\, while a child may show great promise or progress in our speech sessions\, they may receive little to no carryover in their classrooms or other settings\, which can drastically impact their functionality and overall carryover of their skills.Research supports that the use of AAC in the classroom not only supports a student’s communication skills but also their academic and social skills. \nThis course is designed to provide therapists with the knowledge and skills necessary to support AAC users and increase the implementation and carryover of their device use in the classroom and school environments. Throughout this course you will learn how to provide individualized interventions and vocabulary sets\, aid in creating supportive communication environments\, and how to effectively integrate AAC into everyday activities and routines\, thus\, ensuring meaningful communication experiences for AAC users. The course emphasizes the importance of sustained carryover\, providing practical guidance on promoting consistent AAC usage across various contexts and with different communication partners. By the end of the course\, participants will demonstrate a deeper understanding of AAC principles and a toolkit of evidence-based strategies to empower AAC users\, educators\, and their communication partners. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients 3-22 years old. \nHighlights\n\nAcquire actionable strategies for immediate implementation in classrooms that benefit students\, teachers\, support staff\, families\, and caregivers\nExamine practical insights applicable to speech-language pathology practice for empowering Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users

SUMMARY:#7306 Pediatric Brain Part 1: Neurobiology of the Sensory-Motor Systems and their Application to Treatment. - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This course will teach clinicians about the neurobiology of the different regions of the brain and how the function/dysfunction within each region applies to the evaluation of\, and creative treatment planning for your pediatric client. Therapists will learn the role neurotransmitters play in regulation\, attention\, play\, and function. They will receive a thorough review of the developing brain in utero\, and the function of the sub-cortical (brain stem\, cerebellum\, basal ganglia\, and thalamus) and cortical (cerebral cortex including insula) areas of the brain. Treatment activities are discussed to strengthen the individual regions within the brain and support a whole-brain connection to the body for improved body awareness and sensory-motor development. Many ideas for play-based activities are provided to add to the therapist’s toolbox. When we understand how the brain works\, we can determine why behaviors and deficits exist\, and ultimately create endless treatment activities to support our pediatric client. \n  \nThis course has been modified from the original 14-hour Pediatric Brain Course taught for the past 15 years. It can be viewed individually and will also work well as a series with Parts 2 and 3\, as well as in conjunction with the Primitive Reflex Integration Course.  Course instruction methods include lecture\, demonstration\, videos\, case studies and question/answers. (Intermediate Level) \n  \nInstructor: Janine Wiskind\, MS\, OTR/L \n  \nLive Webinar Dates and Times: \n#7306 on Thursday\, February 20\, 2025 from 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm EST \n#7306 Thursday\, July 31\, 2025 on from 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm EST \n  \nSelf Study Available Anytime for Purchase \n  \nThe Pediatric Brain 4 Part Series including #7306\, #7307\, #7308\, #7326.\nPackage Price: $250
