There is an increasing number of culturally and linguistically diverse students who are English Language Learners (ELLs) in America’s schools; many of these children come from backgrounds of poverty. Professionals frequently experience challenges with differentiating language differences from language impairments in ELL students who are struggling in school. This webinar addresses nonbiased assessment strategies and materials that can be used to differentiate language differences from language impairments in ELL students from any linguistic background.
This webinar is provided through a partnership of the 20 Educational Service Centers (ESC), led by Region 10 ESC. TSHA CE hours will be available for SLPs that register, access the webinar, and watch the webinar in its entirety. A code will be provided during the session in order to access TSHA and receive your CE hours. A Region 4 Certificate of Attendance will be provided via email. This session is partially funded through state and federal grants.
