It gave a framework to present information to others in education- many students that were served well in elementary with a speech language impairment eligibility are presenting with other areas of difficulty at the secondary level. In team meetings the history of students showing comprehension difficulties often had a history or speech services but were dismissed from services due to meeting goals and having their language skills catch up- only to change presentation as the child aged.

I found this course to be quite helpful and provided the information in a way that I did not know I needed! It helped me take "old" information that I've known and put it together with newer information that I've learned. It was well laid-out and easy to understand with the appropriate amount of time. Thank you!!

Dr. McGregor shared some amazing research in a way that was accessible and helped inform me on the topic which was neat to me. I felt like it was eye-opening as well, hearing about both the neurological Similarities and so many disorders, but that they could manifest so differently depending on genetics and environment. Thank you for the great workshop!

This course definitely lights a fire for DLD advocacy. The statistics are alarming and sad, and they highlight how very important it is for us clinicians to be well informed about DLD. This course helped give me more confidence in talking about and diagnosing DLD, but also importantly, it gave me more motivation to continue my own research and learning to improve my clinical skills in diagnosing and treating DLD.

This was a highly interesting and relevant topic for those of us who work with children having language difficulties in early and elementary childhood. The review and greater depth into the neurobiology of language disorders, as well as other developmental disorders, was particularly interesting to learn about. I also benefitted from the review of affected brain regions as well as learning about the genetic involvement of DLD and other developmental disorders.

I have never heard of a neurodevelopmental disability. It was interesting to see what falls under this umbrella. The presentation made me think of my caseload and the variety of problems (reading, writing, math, coordination, pragmatics, etc.) that some of my students have and not just specifically why they are receiving therapy from me. That mother showed that her childs' problems continued but the push in schools is to get them off your caseload and let sped teacher continue to see them.

Understanding the DLD as a neurodevelopment disorder. The occurrence of comorbidity and the effects of DLD on school learning, e.g. effects on reading, spelling, math and other subjects.

The presentation included a wealth of comprehensive information and evidence on Developmental Language Disorder and logical rationale for considering DLD as a Neurodevelopmental Disorder. Given the rationale presented here along with clinical observations, it makes sense to consider neurodevelopmental disorders as occurring along a spectrum instead of diagnoses with clear, firm categorical boundaries. I appreciate the information I received in this presentation very much.
