Good breakdown of how to classify spelling errors into types, how spelling error patterns develop & change over time, and contrasts between typically developing patterns vs. dysgraphia, dyslexia, etc.; less helpful: how some quiz q's were phrased (e.g. where 'all above' true generally, then second-guess based on apparent confusion of possible finer-grained referents (e.g. time 26:56 sounds like q is specifically contrasting word-specific vs general, rather than taken as whole, etc.) Overall good

There was so much unfamiliar vocabulary (jargon) glossed over that had to work double-time to try and process what she was saying. The content should have been divided into 3-4 sections. It would allow for more demonstration of the POMOG model.

I share the presenter's point of view that analyzing and understanding spelling errors can yield an abundance of information about a student's repository of lexical information and their linguistic processing skills.

While this was good information for a private practice setting, I felt that it was kind of impractical for the school SLP because of time constraints. I feel like spelling errors can be taught and addressed with a systematic , language based approach to reading. I do feel that teaching spelling rules in relevant , meaningful words can be applicable in a school setting.
