Okay... maybe that's not a newsflash for you, but perhaps you haven't yet thought about the role of engagement and motivation in academics, specifically writing endeavors for students who struggle with language. In this week's episode, Dr. Robin Danzack of Emerson College in Boston floods the podcast newswaves with her expertise on the role of “authentic” student writing intervention in school-based SLP practice. Tune in to discover why you should be thinking about writing (specifically “authentic” writing) as an SLP and how you can join forces with your fellow educators to integrate meaningful, dual-purpose, curriculum-based, writing interventions into your assessment and support practices. Got any comic book or video game fans on your caseload? You'll get some great tips to further bolster your existing strength as an SLP in customizing interventions to meet your students' unique needs and interests while fostering growth in language and literacy, simultaneously. As with many thought-provoking episodes in the Nerdcast library, you won't take your ear off this one, and I guarantee you'll leave inspired to weave writing into the fabric of your language intervention, and to spread the news across the virtual or physical break room!Learn more about Robin hereLearning Outcomes1.
