I was frustrated at the lack of neurodiversity-affirming language and attitudes throughout the presentation. While certain neurotypes may have difficulties in particular areas, we should see them less as "problems" to solve, but challenges to circumnavigate.

She made a good argument for DLD being a ND. I have subscribed to this idea for my entire professional life and it always bothered me that professionals in the SLP field were so lock-step with singular diagnoses. IDEA (and its subsequent versions) didn't do anything to help that either.

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 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.
