Girl Scouts and AAC

By -

One of my favorite activities outside of work is working with my Girl Scout Troop for girls with special needs! These girls are amazing and I learn so much from them at each troop meeting. One of the mothers in my troop was kind enough to give me permission to share a special video of her daughter optimally using her AAC device in our troop meeting.

This evening I read Stuttering in School-Age Children: A Call for Treatment Research by Marilyn A. Nippold, PhD, and Editor. 2011 http://lshss.asha.org/cgi/content/full/42/2/99 This article is short, sweet, informative and basically hands out a research idea for dysfluency on a silver platter! In a nutshell this article discusses the need for research on therapy intervention for fluency for school-age children. I cannot agree more! Since starting in an outpatient facility I have had just a hand full of school-age fluency clients. I feel that there are so many different techniques to target fluency that it would be nice to have some solid evidence-based practice to present to parents and the students to collaboratively make a great plan of care. The author discusses the need and the benefit research would give this area of speech-language pathology. She further discusses two common methods in targeting fluency - the Lidcombe Program and the Gradual Increase in Length and Complex...
