Great Course and I learned a lot! A lot of suggestions were able to be implemented. I wish there was time to discuss a case study where the student WOULDN'T qualify or cases that weren't so obvious. Otherwise everything was pretty straight forward. The presenter did a nice job.

Overall very good course. A specific course on looking at disorder vs. difference and using case studies would be great. I very much liked that the presenter discussed "influenced" language and that skills in both languages might be decreased but not because of a disorder. This is the area that would be super helpful to understand more about- differentiating if the decrease is due to a language disorder vs. the interactin of learning the two language. Well worth the hour.

The information was WONDERFUL and I greatly appreciate the presenter taking the time to share. It was not, however, applicable to my setting. At times, our multi-lingual evaluations are scheduled less than 24 hours prior to the evaluation and we are not given time to train the interpreter as if they arrive, they arrive at the same time as the family, and if they don't, we utilize a video interpreter.

I liked the way the presenter gave a detailed way to conduct a multilingual evaluation. I learned new information about about conducting a multilingual evaluation such as how one language can influence the other language and how even if a child is not speaking their heritage language that heritage language may influence their English. I learned ways to write reports and defend me not using a standardized assessment.

It was presented well, organized and concise. It helped me understand the importance of using both dynamic assessment, using the different interviews necessary, and the importance of using an interpreter as a monolingual SLP to get true picture of the child's abilities to determine if the child has just a difference or a true language disorder.

She did a great job discussing the different tools that could be used to do the language assessment and explained why and how to use these tools. She also explained the response about why a standardized test was not used.
