The Pacific University College of Education welcomes speech-language pathologists and teachers, as well as current students, alumni and other community members, to advance their professional practice with a free workshop on dyslexia during inauguration week.
Drs. Mary Mitchell and Jenny Larsen, from Pacific's School of Communication Sciences and Disorders and Child Learning and Development Center, will explore phonology, orthography and morphology as they relate to dyslexia. The simple view of reading and different types of reading disorders will be reviewed. The language blocks of spelling will be used to demonstrate spelling analysis with active participation and discussion of specific samples and case studies. The presenters will share a variety of resources related to literacy disorders, assessments and interventions.
The session, lunch and certificates of completion are free. Participants also may apply to earn .2 ASHA CEUs (introductory level)or 2 teacher PDUs.
