Unstuck Webinar Graphic

Your client definitely has Childhood Apraxia of Speech. You’re confident about the goals you’ve selected. You’ve chosen a tried-and-true evidence-based method that’s worked for you before but… no progress this time. You’re stuck! Now what? Do you abandon the method? The goals? The client? The field? Dr. Velleman will present a systematic problem-solving strategy for analyzing the factors that may be barriers to progress. These include the type of learning that is being measured (e.g., automaticity vs. self-monitoring; performance vs. generalization) as well as nature of the input (e.g., visual, tactile), the nature of the practice (e.g., constant vs. variable), the nature of the response (e.g., vocal vs. gestural), and the nature of the feedback provided (e.g., immediate vs. delayed). A review of relevant case studies will provide practical application of the concepts discussed so that you feel ready to use them with your next client with CAS.
