very interesting topic. I left a bit confused about how to go about identifying/differentially diagnosing a language/communication impairment in this population and how the funding would work to support our services versus general social work services

I love getting another perspective from another country. Our view of the world is so America-centric. Its nice to be reminded that many other countries are also struggling with welcoming migrants and trying to problem solve how to welcome them.

The material was very dry and disappointing for a video course. Could have just been a text course. Most, if not all, of the considerations presented could be applied to ESL not just forced migration.

I worked with a family of a toddler/preschooler who migrated from North Africa a few years ago, I was not aware of the migration issues that may have contributed to their circumstance. I am extremely responsive to looking at the whole child and considering cultural and linguistic factors. In our area most immigrant/ forced migrant families come from Mexico South and Central America. I realize now that I need to consider the impact of trauma and experience based factors in a broader group of immigrant/ migrant cultures. Very helpful

The presenter read directly from the screen, therefore I could have read the powerpoint to complete this. I did not gain takeaways that are different from what I already know; to make an individualized plan for each student I work with. However, this did make me think about migrant families and what they endure.

The.course content did not to me seem particularly applicable to clinical practice.

It made me think of my role as a SLP with migrant children, which is a role I haven't thought about. The presenter brought up some excellent points and I specifically appreciated hearing what the migrant community would like more of: language and literacy in English and/or the native language of the host country, access to jobs/job opportunities. Those are two very practical needs that as an SLP I have training to help migrant families with! This made me excited :)
