Accessible, Informative, Practical
Thank you for making this excellent, research-based learning opportunity that is both extremely accessible and affordable. This is the best kind of PD: it’s 1 hour at a time so that I can learn and then have time to synthesize and apply; it provides information I can apply to my practice immediately; and I can listen and learn while I drive, fold laundry, etc. Thanks for the research and resources!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Empowering Early SLP Involvement for Tracheostomy Patients

Q: Is the Greenlight Tool meant to be used across teams or just by a single clinician at a time?

The tool is designed to be used across the department, becoming part of the culture so that multiple SLPs on different units can apply consistent decision-making, while still allowing individual clinicians to rely on their judgment.

Down Syndrome and AAC Generative Language Intervention

Q: What were the key findings of the randomized controlled trial?

Intervention participants showed higher weighted MLU SIM scores over time compared with controls, indicating faster creation of multi-word utterances; effects observed after four months.

Down Syndrome and AAC Generative Language Intervention

Q: What are the core components of AAC-Gli Generative Language Intervention?

Three main components: intervention techniques, motivating contexts/activities, and the technology (iPad displays with multiple word classes, careful symbol organization, and grammatically complete models).

Down Syndrome and AAC Generative Language Intervention

Q: Why did you choose to focus on Down syndrome and AAC for this generative language intervention?

Down syndrome often involves a divergence where receptive language is stronger than expressive language; AAC can support language development and help reveal cognitive abilities that are masked by speech limitations.

Re-Defining Effective Communication with Black, Disabled AAE-Speaking Children

Q: You were both a participant and a researcher. What was that experience like and how did it influence the study?

Privet describes embracing her dual role, prioritizing authenticity and reflexivity, shifting from a clinical gaze to a more radical, critical lens, and reorienting the data to foreground the children's lived experiences and community voices.
