Participants will learn how to implement these concepts into daily practice and how to create intervention materials based on the information that has been learned. Participants will be encouraged to rethink how language assessment is conducted and dis-cuss what is known about risk factors and clinical indicators of language impairment. Participants will be provided with examples on how to select, interpret and utilize standardized test scores. They will also be given information about some new and interesting tools to add to their assessment “tool box”.
