⚠️#Alarming in @ASHAjournals. Compared with individuals without speech sound disorder, adolescents with SSD at age 8 have 2x the risk of reporting self-harm with suicidal intent, even when other important predictors are taken into account. https://t.co/rPdcnNMvj9 #WeSpeechies

Such a great title for a research project investigating the Scottish 'oo'! #slt2b #phonetics

[QMU_SLT @QMU_SLT]

First of the posters... Our UG student laboratory/research module looked at a range of topics. This one measured the Scottish "oo" vowel to find just how far front in the mouth it is pronounced: and it is very front indeed.

[Sarah Johnston SLT @SJohnstonSLT]

Looks like such a great event - wish I could have attended. Well done to all the amazing @QMU_SLT students who delivered fascinating research projects! #slt2b @rcsltscot

Congratulations to @DrJoanMa1, who has been awarded one of just six personal research fellowships from @RoyalSocEd for next year, titled “Ultrasound evaluation of swallowing: clinical feasibility and stakeholders engagement.”

H is for home. Often #AAC is first introduced in an educational environment yet around 66% of a child’s life is outside of school each year. AAC must be embedded in everyday life not just in formal learning. #AACAware2022

Two ways of knowing: 1 studies 2. Stories. Most studies lead to more data; stories are the seeds of social change. Cold data is mostly devoid of meaningful stories about specific communities. In contrast, warm data seeks to reveal local stories & meaning.

NEW: Scaffolding can be an effective teaching tool, but, remembering to take it away when no longer needed is equally as important.
