'Developmental Language Disorder' is known to impact on language development, but rarely occurs in isolation. In fact, people with DLD are likely to also have difficulties with attention, reading, speech and emotional regulation. This webinar has been designed to help educators and health professionals consider different areas of need for people with DLD.
The Linking Language with Secondary School Learning (LINK-S) Program is an evidence-based professionally collaborative approach to supporting secondary school students with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and other language-based learning difficulties. This Response to Intervention Tier 1 model of service delivery aims to create ‘language-friendly’ secondary school classrooms, by coaching teachers in ways to modify the oral and written instructional language used in their regular classroom teaching practices. The program has been successfully implemented in many schools across Australia, with speech pathologists reporting positive feedback from classroom and learning support teachers, and positive results in students’ classroom engagement and academic progress.

'Developmental Language Disorder' (DLD) is the nationally and internationally accepted term to describe difficulties acquiring language for no known reason. However, clinicians are reporting a lack of confidence using this new terminology in their day-to-day work. This online workshop has been specifically designed to support clinicians in private practice, education and health with embedding current research into the realities of their clinical practice.
Families this workshop is for you! Multidisciplinary teams represent a variety of professionals that work together to support a child and their family. Often speech pathologists are the first point of call for Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), however difficulties with language rarely occur in isolation. This webinar will help you build a multidisciplinary team.
Children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) can have difficulties with some or all areas of language, including syntax, morphology, semantics, word finding, pragmatics, discourse and phonology. Each child will present with strengths and areas of need, which requires an individualised approach. But how do you know if your therapy is working? This online workshop will address decision making about where to start with goal setting and how to measure outcomes, so you know when the goal is achieved, and when it is time to start something new.
Clinicians working with children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and their families often need to plan for individualised interventions and support strategies. However, there are a wide variety of approaches, tools and training available. So how do you decide what approach to take and when? This online workshop will combine current research regarding interventions and strategies with practical examples giving you the skills to apply your learnings in therapy.
