Have you discovered this wonderful new speech therapy resource? “The Informed SLP” presents overviews of research into a variety of topics in pediatric speech-language therapy. The author, Dr. Meredith Poore Harold, reads a wide variety of research journals and shares her knowledge with the busy, busy SLPs that we all are. In Dr. Harold’s words:
“Each monthly email newsletter from The Informed SLP will include only the most important research highlights relevant to your practice. We’ll read, read, read, then cut, cut, cut, until we have just enough for you to reasonably digest. If we don’t think it’s something that will change the way you diagnose or treat clients, we won’t include it. Each of our summaries will link to the original research articles.”
To whet your appetite, I am including a link to the abstract of an article I found relevant to my practice. I found it helpful in selecting words to use in therapy: http://perspectives.pubs.asha.org/article.aspx?articleid=2529457. Is there anything else I can say to encourage you to check out The Informed SLP? It’s free! Yes, it’s free! What a gift Dr. Harold has given us!
