The topic was relevant to clinical services for individuals who are dual language learners. The information was fascinating, research based and provocative in terms of assessment and treatment of dual language learners. The information will certainly enhance the considerations for these children in school settings who may or may not need special services.

I really liked that this course was taught by someone who is bilingual themselves and has experience with the process of learning a second language. I also felt like there was a lot of validity to what was said as far as bilingual assessment and how we can do a dynamic assessment rather than standardized testing on students who are ELLs.

The presenter described the challenges of DLLs and gave examples of normal processes of L2 and how these might be observed across home and school settings. I appreciated the presenter's recommendations for appropriate assessment tools, as using more informal assessment typically gives us better information about the skills and deficits a student has, versus how the student performed on a standardized assessment.

As a Spanish-speaking bilingual SLP, I appreciated how she included case studies of a variety of linguistic backgrounds. I also found it to be enlightening when she described the difference between proficiency in BICS and CALP, and how some students seem fluent in English until you test them, because they are not fluent in CALP. This hit home with many students I am seeing right now.
