@SusanEbbels & team are at it again with this great paper examining dose in explicit morphosyntactic intervention (via shape coding). Cumulative teaching episodes per target was key. Session scheduling can be flexible. Thanks! pubs.asha.org/doi/10.1044/20…
So pleased that the intervention steps are now on our website for the final few Level 1 targets.

Such a lovely international group of Speech & Language Therapists / Pathologists in the Part 2 course today (from UK, Australia, US, Germany & Switzerland). Thanks so much to those attendees for whom the hours were definitely not normal work hours!
Just released another 4 (the adjective phrase section), now total of 48 targets covered.
The rest will have to wait until after the holiday.
Have a lovely Christmas everyone
