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."

      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.

How are the terms deaf, deafened, hard of hearing, and hearing impaired typically used?... - 0 views

  • The term "hearing impaired" is often used to describe people with any degree of hearing loss, from mild to profound, including those who are deaf and those who are hard of hearing. Many individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing prefer the terms "deaf" and "hard of hearing," because they consider them to be more positive than the term "hearing impaired," which implies a deficit or that something is wrong that makes a person less than whole.

      Hard of hearing vs hearing impaired explanation
  • Deaf, deafened, and hard of hearing individuals may choose to use hearing aids, cochlear implants, and/or other assistive listening devices to boost available hearing. Alternatively, or in addition, they may read lips, use sign language, sign language interpreters, and/or captioning.
  • People who are deaf or hard of hearing may have speech that is difficult to understand due to the inability to hear their own voice.

What Is Included in an IEP | Understood - For learning and thinking differences - 0 views

  • IEPs are developed by a group of professionals at school. One member of this IEP team typically acts as a case manager and oversees the IEP. You’re part of your child’s IEP team, too. That means you’ll be involved in the process as the IEP is made. The IEP team will use the results of your child’s evaluation testing to design the plan. The scores show the specific areas your child struggles with. Having that information allows the IEP team to provide the individualized instruction and supports your child needs.

Tier 2 Targeted intervention for specific groups of students 6% – 15% It can take as long as eight weeks before academic improvement is noticeable, and children/students may need to remain at Tier 2 for a bit of time to increase or maintain their growth. Tier 3 Highly targeted individualized and intensive interventions 1% – 5% The specific nature of a child’s difficulty must be more closely examined, which is typically done through formal educational/academic evaluations.
