20Q: From Kanner to DSM 5 - Autism from an SLP Lens, Part I
This course will describe the changes in diagnostic criteria and practices from the time autism was first described by Leo Kanner in 1943 until the DSM IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fourth Edition) criteria were published in 1994. This historical perspective will enable speech-language pathologists to gain a deeper understanding of how autism has evolved through the decades.

Increasing Student Participation in the IEP Process
Like many other discrete skills, student participation in the individualized education program (IEP) process can be taught in a straightforward and systematic way, slowly increasing their participation and independence. This course will focus on keys to a successful student-driven conference, including carefully scaffolding the process in ways that provide support at each stage of the process until the student reaches maximum independence.

Listening Effort, Fatigue, Social Isolation, & Dementia: Correlates of Age Related Hearing Loss
A hallmark of age related hearing loss is difficulty understanding in noisy environments. The difficulty requires significant listening effort on the listener’s part which, when prolonged, is associated with fatigue. The fatigue in combination with the listening effort and cognitive load often leads people to withdraw from social situations. Social disengagement has many downstream negative outcomes - including dementia - that will be discussed, along with simple solutions for clinical practice.

I Tossed the Workbooks, Now What? How to meet functional cognitive goals using evidence-based frameworks in neurogenic disorders
Workbooks, card games, and board games are often readily available for use in speech therapy to treat cognition in neurogenic disorders; however, these treatment methods are not in line with the most recent research for best practices in acquired brain injury (ABI). This course offers evidence, support and practical ideas for embedding functional treatment into current evidence-based frameworks for neurogenic disorders.
