Discussion 2: Resource List

  

Communication is a critical aspect in learning. The acquisition of communication skills assists students in accessing and applying information and the ability to comprehend and acquire knowledge, as well as effectively interacting with their peers. Language acquisition and development can be a difficult task for students with communication delays, resulting in difficulties with expressive and receptive language, norms and expectations of communication interactions, and simple rules of conversation. As a result, it is necessary for special education teachers to provide students with meaningful opportunities to acquire and practice communication skills using a variety of response activities. Having a repertoire of effective research-based interventions is essential for special education teachers when working with students with communication delays.
