I loved being able to take a deep dive into this topic through reading an entire book vs. taking short courses. This course helped bring depth and clarity about the cycles approach and provided details of how to get started. I would highly recommend this course to both new AND seasoned clinicians.

I have used the Cycles approach to remediation with multiple children with great results. The remediation is much quicker and the child's intelligiblity in increased at an impressive rate. I have ran into problems using this technique with children with poor oral motor skills. Although this was mentioned in the text, I did not get a clear understanding of using the cycles approach with accompanying oral motor deficits.

In my professional experience, Barbara Hodson's Cycles Approach developed has been tremendously influential in enhancing my work with students who have severe speech sound intelligibility deficits. Her research shows that cycling through multiple phonological processes, rather than targeting one at a time, leads to faster intelligibility improvements. This method has proven highly effective in my clinical practice.

I loved reading this book. I have been curious about delving more into Hodson's approach. I have interacted with many students who had her as a teacher and love her work and followed her examples. I think it would be a great idea to pair this book study with a 1-2 hour video addressing this topic.

I was intimidated re: reading a textbook for continuing education, but information was clear and straightforward. The textbook now serves as a great resource and the appendix contains a wealth of information. I didn't time it but I did spend more than eight hours on it. This would be my "first love" as an SLP. I wish I could ask Dr. Hodson questions about some of the information and I wish I could go to Witchita to study under her.

I appreciated that this was a textbook that could be read and re-read. In addition, I was able to take my time reading the book to really absorb the information. Since this course was via a textbook, the author was able to provide great detail and go in depth into certain topics. As a self paced course, reading could be completed and then applied to therapy immediately.

As a clinician who has been practicing 20+ years this was a very good way for me to review what I knew about the cycles approach while also learning about more current research and ideas on implementation.

This textbook was extremely thorough in looking at all aspects of phonology. It provided a review of phonetics and phonological patterns. It provided the different researched theories about phonology, the different types of assessments, and it was very specific about different types of remediation practices that could be used for children with highly unintelligible speech It even provided play activities and ideas to use within sessions as well! It's a great resource!!

Good refresher given that I graduated more than 20 years ago. I also liked the comparisons between the different approaches and, although the book mostly discussed Hodson's cycles approach, she also explained that the cycles approach was really only for highly unintelligible children and that different approaches would be better for children with milder deficits.
