  • Best Practices, Strategies, and Recommendations for Improving School Climate and Culture
  • ED’s guidance is developed to assist stakeholders with effectively selecting and implementing supports that work to improve outcomes for children.
  • In addition to the four levels of evidence for choosing interventions, the ED guidance document emphasizes that “ways to strengthen the effectiveness of ESEA investments include identifying local needs, selecting evidence-based interventions that SEAs, LEAs, and schools have the capacity to implement, planning for and then supporting the intervention, and examining and reflecting upon how the intervention is working,” as illustrated in the figure from the guidance document (U.S. Department of Education, 2016, p. 3).

What is the Difference Between a Speech Therapist and a Speech Pathologist? Donald Full... - 0 views

  • In the past, the term "speech pathologist" was used by professionals to describe themselves, but the term most commonly used today is "speech-language pathologist" or "SLP." Lay people have more often referred to us as "speech therapists," "speech correctionists," or even "speech teachers."
    • nikkilh
       
      Difference between speech-language pathologist and speech therapist.
  • The term "speech" is used to denote the components of vocal activity such as phonation (the production of a vocal tone via the larynx or "voice box"), articulation (the movement of the structures in the mouth to create speech sounds to produce words), resonance (the overall quality of the voice as well as the process that transforms the vocal tone into what we recognize as a person's "voice") and fluency (the timing and synchronization of these components of the complex speech act). "Language" refers to the comprehension and production of language, including the mode in which it is comprehended or produced (oral, gesturing, writing, or reading).
  • Even the term "speech-language pathologist" doesn't quite capture the totality of our scope of practice.
