Clinical Translational Core Assessment Series Panel: Addressing Intervention and Research Needs Through Technology
November 21 (Th)
12:00 p.m.
Held in Room 241, Vanderbilt Kennedy Center/One Magnolia Circle Building. Providing timely, effective interventions for children with developmental disabilities and behavioral needs is challenging, even in highly resourced areas. This becomes even more difficult when working with families, educators, and service providers in underserved and rural areas. However, advances in a variety of technologies are assisting professionals from multiple backgrounds in addressing these needs. This session will include a panel of experts from TRIAD (Treatment and Research Institute for Autism Spectrum Disorders) who will discuss their current work with early interventionists, speech-language pathologists, and school-based teams across Tennessee. Topics will include the application of technologies to provide services, such as teleconsultation, asynchronous practice-based coaching, facilitation of virtual professional learning communities, and coaching to address behavioral challenges.
