This program focuses on treatment of Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) especially treatment using Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC), a motor based approach that is one of the leading interventions for children with moderate to severe CAS. Itwill emphasize clinical thinking and decision- making as central to the processes of selecting and implementing any treatment approach. Because principles of motor learning are incorporated in DTTC, they will be introduced and discussed in the context of ongoing decision making during intervention. Rationale and procedures will be described for children of di erent ages and levels of severity. Available evidence for the e cacy of DTTC will also be presented. Video demonstration and group discussion procedures will facilitate active participation by program participants.
