Join us for dinner and webinar!

This webinar will discuss all aspects of echolalia, a complex and often misunderstood language phenomenon. The speaker will discuss the origins of echolalia and review the evidence that supports it as a positive indicator of language development. The speaker will describe how to perform ongoing assessment before and during mitigation, and share intervention strategies to facilitate the transition to self-generated language.

Learning Objectives:

You will be able to:

• apply Blanc’s stages of gestalt language acquisition to utterances from language samples as part of ongoing assessment

• develop and implement language intervention plans (including models and contingent responses) to facilitate mitigation of echolalia
