Banter Booster #18: Useful tools and resources for speech pathologists
Welcome to Banter Booster! I’m David, and here’s how I felt coming back to the clinic after the long weekend:
Busy? Who, me?
That’s enough whining! We’ve found lots of useful tools for you this week:
FREE therapy resources for literacy, adult language assessments and dysphagia exercises
FREE training opportunities about DLD v Dyslexia, teaching principles, ADHD, motor learning, and aphasia
FREE procedure-teaching tips, tech and apps
FREE private practice tips on feedback, interviews, onboarding, over-giving and room numbering!
Open-access research/summaries about ‘tongue shape complexity’, dyslexia, and autistic teen gamers
Perspectives from and about clients - some of them flipped!
Let’s get into it!

Tips, Tech & Apps
Okay, I'm convinced. Visual Instruction Plans (a picture for each step) are a POWERFUL way to explicitly teach procedures. A thread 🧵 1/7

Proud to have had a role in developing this free resource for parents/carers of children who stammer - I hope it helps to reduce anxiety, distress, and stigma.
If you know/work with any families who may benefit please spread the word!

Private Practice Tips
My advice for all the NQP SLTs:
Every time you get some positive feedback (from a patient, patient's family member, or a colleague) or you achieve something that you are proud of - Write it down (either in your notes app or a physical journal) (1/2)— Laura Payne (@LauraPayneSLT)

Interviewing new Speech & Language Therapy colleagues is central to my NHS working life. In @Not@Notts_ID_MH_SLTnow give candidates the questions in advance. Outcome: the interviews feel less like a test of processing speed & more like a conversation. #Accessi#AccessibleCommunication

We used a lifeworld approach to examine #autistic young people’s engagement in online gaming from their own perspectives, moving past outsider perceptions of ‘healthy gaming behaviour’ to explore what YP had to say about their own motivations+ experiences

Perspectives
Instead of looking at children as having no English, let’s look at them as having all these languages. Lets focus on their language resources and use them effectively. 🏴 🇫🇷 🇸🇴 🇧🇩 #multilingual#superpower

Absolutely blown away (and moved to tears) by this presentation by Siouxsie Webster, an absolutely inspirational 17 year old with DLD who managed to inspire, inform and educate a room full of researchers, educators and therapists … on what it is to live with DLD.

Nostalgia is so strange. People will tell you about how they used to read Spider-Man comics with their dad, or how they used to ride bikes around the neighborhood with their friends, and then act like "Spider-Man" and "bikes" are the important takeaways
