Online Language Reading Connection (LRC) Module
The Language Reading Connection online module was developed by a language and literacy leadership team lead by Dr. Mary Little of the University of Central Florida in collaboration with Florida Department of Education and the Florida Center for Interactive Media (FCIM). The LRC module is designed for speech and-language pathologists (SLPs) who work with students that have language and reading needs in Florida's public schools. The purpose of the module is to provide in-depth information, opportunities for practice and application, and resources to SLPs to assist them in performing their role in reading intervention for elementary level students, specifically in the areas of vocabulary and reading comprehension. Related professionals in addition to SLPs are encouraged to explore the module as well. This professional development tool consists of five self-paced units and is excellent for independent or group study, to build awareness, understanding, and practice with the SLP's role in reading. The module is offered for 0.5 American Speech-Language-Hearing Association Continuing Education Units (ASHA CEUs). Registration is free and available at http://lrc.florida-ese.org. For questions regarding ASHA CEUs, please contact Dr. Alice Kaye Emery by e-mail at aemery@coe.ufl.edu. For technical questions, please call (800) 357-1072 or e-mail your question(s) to support@fcim.org
