Contextualized Expository Intervention to Promote Competent, Confident Learners
Course Description
Expository discourse is hard. There are difficult ideas, words, sentences, and text structures, and no “magic of story” to keep the learner’s attention. Speech-language pathologists must find ways to systematically teach skills and strategies while providing meaningful communicative contexts that motivate and engage students in their own learning. This presentation addresses these challenges with evidence-based, practical guidance within a contextualized skill framework. It explains expository discourse and academic expectations across the grades, address key elements of treatment, and explain a whole-part approach with examples of goals, activities, procedures, and materials.
