Linda Murphy, M.S., CCC-SLP – Join us as Linda expands on declarative language and co-regulation by exploring reasons for breakdowns in the learning and engagement process and exploring how to navigate exchanges with students where we must think on our feet in the moment based on their feedback to us. Linda will discuss school-based case study examples where students have become dysregulated and are experiencing challenging behaviors. The second section of the webinar will focus on applying the tools of declarative language and co-regulation to create positive and successful peer interactions.
The first section of the webinar will focus on Declarative Language & Co-Regulation: Troubleshooting and Case Studies. We will explore reasons for breakdowns in the learning and engagement process, explore how to navigate exchanges with students where we must think on our feet and dynamically scaffold in the moment based on their feedback to us, and discuss actual school-based case study examples where students have become dysregulated and are experiencing challenging behaviors.
Specific strategies to navigate these breakdowns, along with specific clinical considerations within these harder moments, will be discussed, and several video clips will be shared to show what this dynamic process looks like in action, with a range of learning styles, across different environments.
The second section of the webinar will focus on Creating Positive and Successful Peer Interactions. How can we apply the tools of declarative language and co-regulation when helping our learners have successful interactions with their peers, develop positive relationships, form friendships, and learn together? Specific topics covered include a framework for how to approach and think about peer interaction through this relationship-based lens using co-regulatory frameworks, example natural environment and more structured activity ideas, and ways to introduce and include our learners in competitive games so that they stay engaged and successful.
