Course Summary
When childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is suspected, ongoing assessment is critical to identify children who present with motor speech planning difficulties. Many of the young children speech-language pathologists (SLPs) evaluate, however, are minimally verbal, making standardized tests difficult to administer. The burden then falls on SLPs to use informal assessment to determine which children present with characteristics consistent with suspected CAS. This course will provide an informal assessment guide for use with young children who are struggling learning to talk. Co-existing conditions and later academic challenges of children with CAS will also be discussed.
