Thursday, April 3rd

7:00 pm -8:15pm CST

Despite recent reports that children who wear hearing technology and had early intervention demonstrate language skills similar to those of typically-hearing peers, studies comparing language outcomes at different chronological ages often find that the language gap between children with typical hearing and children and those with hearing differences widens as children age. Learn about assessments that identify existing language gaps and/or support the development of language goals and objectives for young children who are deaf or hard of hearing. This workshop will highlight important considerations to keep in mind when developing a language assessment battery for preschool-aged children who are deaf or hard of hearing.

The participant will be able to:

  1.  Describe factors that should be considered when selecting an assessment battery for preschool-aged children who are deaf or hard of hearing.
  2. List and describe specific language assessments that are appropriate for young children who are deaf or hard of hearing.
  3. Identify assessments that are beneficial to share at a preschooler’s IEP meeting because they a) are likely to identify existing language gaps, and/or b) support the development of language goals and objective
