We all serve many EL students and need to use interpreters. I now understand the different types of interpreter approaches from simultaneous , or "Chuchotage" and consecutive. We should never feel pressured to short change families and students during evaluations or eligibility meetings.

The case studies were very helpful. Understanding the differences between translation and interpretation was useful as well as how complex a trained interpreter's skills are. I appreciate the references for the "60 Minutes" program with Elsie Stecker and Lindsey Snyder and I will view that.Other good references included U of Mass Special Ed for interpreters information and a reminder of the "Language Line" use. Describing aspects of dynamic evaluation vs. standardized tests was important.

I typically am happy to listen to presenters share their information, internalize what is helpful, and forget what isn't. I had a difficult time with this presenter's speaking style as it was not fluid and it sounded like there was a script being read instead of a conversation being had. I did appreciate the use of research citations as well as the outline of ASHA ethics that were used to support her speaking points. Overall helpful information, but presentation style wasn't for me.

I appreciated the speaker's assurance that this was not to condemn anyone using interpreter services but to educate.

Being provided with definitions and difference between an interpreter and translator, especially as the two terms are often incorrectly used interchangeably. Good to know the benefits of closed caption even for those who are able to hear and understand the language. Points made regarding meeting in advance with interpreter, getting interpreter's thoughts for presenting of info and positioning of interpreter with client. Case study, great info on using untrained interpreter and testing ELL.
