Participants will leave with practical tools for goal writing and data collection systems that support progress monitoring and documentation across settings.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">This course is appropriate for speech-language pathologists working in school, clinical, early intervention, or medical settings who evaluate or treat children with suspected or confirmed speech sound disorders.</span></p>http://www.escweb.net/oh_hcesc/catalog/session.aspx?session_id=44800<p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Join us for a transformative three-part professional learning series centered on the groundbreaking work of Rachel Lambert. This is a collaborative book study and working space where we will explore the text to understand how to shift from a medical model of "fixing" students to a social model of removing systemic barriers.

Breakout topics are inspired by the conversations, needs, and innovation emerging from the HCESC AI Council, though participation in the AI Council is not required to attend the Design Lab.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;"> Each session will also include an open coaching space where participants can receive individualized support, ask questions, brainstorm ideas, or explore AI needs beyond the scheduled breakout topics.</span></p>http://www.escweb.net/oh_hcesc/catalog/session.aspx?session_id=44798<p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;"><strong>Does your role include supporting teacher growth?</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;"> If so, please plan to join Hamilton County ESC's 13th Annual Instructional Coaching Institute series to hone your coaching skills with colleagues in similar roles! </span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">This five-session series, created for coaches, lead teachers, department heads, and other building leaders, is designed to develop highly accomplished instructional leaders.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;"> Participants will study the practices and skills necessary for impactful coaching and apply them in real-time as they support teacher growth. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">-----------</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Cost is $450/person.

This is a collaborative book study and working space where we will explore the text to understand how to shift from a medical model of "fixing" students to a social model of removing systemic barriers. Together, we will bridge the gap between theory and the classroom by discussing the book&rsquo;s core themes and trying out the math routines that support and empower neurodiverse learners. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Session Dates &amp; Times (8:30 AM &ndash; 11:30 AM): </span></p> <ul> <li><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Session 1: September 17 </span></li> <li><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Session 2: January 17 </span></li> <li><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">Session 3: May 11</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="color: #3f3f3f;">A Hands-On, Team-Based Experience These sessions are designed as active working workshops.
