| Description |
Children learn language in the context of spontaneous, social interactions, making language acquisition embedded in the affective, cognitive, and social domains. However, language comprehension is often overlooked in assessments. Developing effective assessment and intervention strategies requires a critical understanding of developmental communication milestones. Participants will learn about the impact of the developmental process on comprehension and verbal expression in infants and toddlers, as well as synthesize intervention strategies with other important principles of motor, cognitive, and social/emotional development.
