Project Title: Self-Monitoring to Improve Speech Carryover and Generalization

Based on baseline data, students who are at sentence, reading and conversational level with models will be identified to participate in video monitoring. A baseline video will be completed by each student reading paragraph material and spontaneously speaking. Each month the student will videotape themselves reading a paragraph and in spontaneous conversations. After each video the speech therapist will document the students’ errors and progress. The student will also review the video each time and document their own errors to make them more aware of their errors and their use of good speech techniques. Students will do self monitoring by May 2016, which will make them less reliant on the speech therapist.
