Overview

Speech-Language pathologists have long been involved in providing services to children with communication disorders in the schools. However, a number of recent events have altered the practice environment, including changes in national and state legislation, shifting demographics, an increase in the severity of disorders encountered, advances in technology, and a move toward curriculum-based assessment. The new edition of Speech, Language and Hearing Programs in Schools: A Guide for Studens and Practitioners reflects these events. The new editors -- contributors to the first edtion -- have substantially updated and revised all chapters and have added new material on the re-authorization of IDEA, literacy acquisition, pediatric dysphagia, children from culturally diverse backgrounds who are increasingly represented in speech-language pathology caseloads, and much more. The book also includes chapter objectives, case studies, and Internet resources, and is supplemented by an instructor's manual.
