WEBINAR OVERVIEW:

With the increased use of technology, particularly with iPads in special needs populations, parents and therapists are eager to learn more about these educational apps as a tool to support children's development. This webinar will specifically focus on apps that may enhance and support the speech, language and literacy development of children with CAS. While these apps are not a replacement for speech therapy, they can offer families a variety of tools to support their child’s speech and language progress. Several iPad applications provide therapists and parents convenience, organization, and even session by session data collection. Learn how children can benefit from this fast developing technology, and the many apps that are available for children with apraxia and other special needs.

Incorporating Pre-literacy Skills in Speech Therapy to Improve Speech and Reading
(90 minute webinar, .15 ASHA CEs)

Presenter:  Dr. Amy Meredith, Washington State University

Tuesday, May 24, 2011 at 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM (U.S. Eastern Daylight Savings Time)

Overview of Webinar:
Research has shown that children with CAS and other speech sound disorders are at a high risk for difficulties in phonemic and phonological awareness skills and thus often have difficulty in reading and writing. Some research has also shown that addressing these skills can actually help improve speech production accuracy as well as reading skills. The purpose of this seminar is to discuss ways that phonemic and phonological awareness skills can be worked on at home as well as incorporated into the speech language therapy session.

Amy Skinder Meredith received her doctorate from the University of Washington and her M.S. from the University of Arizona. She is currently an assistant professor at Washington State University Pullman. She is an experienced clinician who has worked in the public schools, hospitals, and private practice settings. Her primary clinical and research interest is in children with motor speech disorders, and she has published and presented her research on childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) at national conferences. Currently, she is investigating the phonological awareness and early reading skills of children with CAS and developing treatment efficacy studies for various CAS treatment techniques. Dr. Skinder-Meredith has given numerous workshops for practicing speech-language pathologists across the country on assessment and treatment of CAS. She is also a member of the CASANA Professional Advisory Board.
