Course Description

So, our dirty little secret is out.  We are pretty into data.  Not just for the sake of collecting data, but thinking about why we are collecting it, what the best methods are for collecting it (so - meaningful and doable), and how and when we should use it to inform all sorts of things.  Data is a thread that runs through our field, from assessments, to recertifications for third payer funding sources, to helping understand and tweak what you are doing from day to day as a clinician.  It is not just sticky notes filled with pluses and minuses (although one of us loves her office full of sticky notes!).  Join us as we continue to deepen the discussion about data, in hopes that you will join our club, too!  By making better friends with data, we can see it as a helper rather than an hindrance. 


In this episode, we’ll cover topics such as data collection methods that tend to be less frequently used in the field of speech language pathology, benefits of certain data collection methods and modalities (e.g., high and low tech) depending upon the target task and/or environment, as well as practical, real-life tips and examples to illustrate how different approaches may be easier and result in better quality data.


Join us for a special blend of commentary, literature reviews, and hopefully even some fun, as you learn more about why and how you really could hop on the “data is cool” train!

"Thank you for making this excellent, research-based learning opportunity that is both extremely accessible and affordable. This is the best kind of PD: it’s one hour at a time so I can learn and then have time to synthesize and apply. It provides information I can apply to my practice immediately; and I can listen and learn while I drive, fold laundry, etc. thanks for the research and resources!"
