The presenter provided lots of great information with many thought provoking points. She is helping to open the eyes and minds of others to the importance of knowledge and understanding of AAE (which is much needed). Impactful thought...Do not denounce a child's difference embrace it, learn more about it, be a part of it.

I am an African-American speech-language pathologist, so using AAE and understanding it is a hot topic for me. It is important that children not be punished or placed in special education because of their identity.

The presenter's knowledge and presentation style were conducive to learning; however, the course lacked practical information as to how to educate teachers and provide services in a way that affirms cultural differences and supports diverse language needs within a public school setting where mainstream American English is the dialect used and understood by a majority of the educators and students.

This course was so helpful in bridging a gap in explanations and word choice for language to describe when there are differences in language dialects. It gave me a new perspective on how to describe speech sound productions with all of my clients with language and dialectal differences. I loved the conversation about cultural competence and cultural humility. I will definitely be sharing thoughts about our approaches to that discussion with my peers!

So much to consider, be mindful and thoughtful of. I am a white female SLP, who up until COVID, worked in a preschool in which 85% of the students were African-American. I was thinking about and considering all of this on a daily basis. I was picturing so many of my students and teachers during your presentation!

I work with mostly AAE-speaking students, and this was extremely helpful for me. I learned how sometimes my own biases and “cultural norms” may become my expectations of my students if I’m not constantly aware of our differences. There was so much information provided that was insightful and will change the way I approach not only assessments but also intervention with this population.

Fantastic presentation!!! If you work with African American students you NEED to take this course! I am in the process of cleaning up a caseload I inherited and have several students that have been over identified in my opinion. I took this course to basically validate my knowledge to be able to properly analyze the assessments and and explain the findings to the teachers who are saying one particular student continues to need speech based on their opinions because they can't understand him.

I have not been familiar with AAE, although I do recognize that it can be a part of culture that I interact with professionally. This course was a wonderful way to identify how to shift my perspective and continue to be cultural responsive. As a current instructor at the graduate level for a multicultural considerations class, I appreciated listening to a fellow SLP who has spent time and researched this area. It is beneficial to know more and be encouraged to grow in this.

I chose this course because we have several African American English speaking students in our school and oftentimes teachers believe that they have speech/language delays, when really it is a dialectal/cultural difference, not a delay. This course will be a great resource to refer back to when teachers have questions about if a student should be referred for an evaluation.

As a black school-based SLP in her infancy of her career (year 5), I want to continue to be well educated and versed on the roles that ones' culture and identity can play in their overall speech and language development. It's so imperative that we continue to have the educational tools to discriminate between what may be language disorder versus simply a language differences. My hope is to help educate those in my school and future schools that I plan to work for.
