The appropriate evaluation of English Language Learning (ELL) students who have potential language-learning difficulties is a dilemma faced by more and more speech-language pathologists. This program demonstrates practical techniques used to differentiate between language difference and disorder in ELL children aged 5–18.
Learning Outcomes You will be able to:
identify aspects of typical second language acquisition in ELL students
describe types of language proficiency that characterize ELL students
define a language-learning disorder in an ELL student
critique aspects of formal, standardized tests that make them inappropriate for use with most ELL students
explain basic elements of federal regulations that govern the assessment of ELL students
identify practical strategies and resources for informal, nonstandardized assessment of ELL students
explain how to best utilize the services of interpreters in the assessment process
