Have you registered for Science to Practice?
by Kristina Breaux, PhD, Principal Research Director, Education Portfolio
Full disclosure: Yes, I will be presenting at S2P 2021, LDA’s inaugural Science to Practice virtual conference January 21–24, 2021. That being said, even if I weren’t presenting, this event would be on my short list of conferences to attend.
Here’s why...
S2P is laser focused on research and practice.
An entire conference — not just a track — dedicated to LD research and practice! This defined area of focus allows us to go so much deeper into the issues, and as an added bonus, S2P isn’t afraid to address the controversies! As a researcher, I’m so excited to participate in a conference that will address issues from all sides.
It’s THE who’s who in SLD identification — all together at one conference!
What other conference allows you to hear from LD experts like H. Lee Swanson and Doug Fuchs? I’ve been in this field for a long time and I’d typically have to attend multiple conferences to have access to all these experts!
Sessions are centered around critically important topics.
Here are a few of the topics that stood out to me:
- Clarifying misinformation about best practices for SLD identification
- How to interpret assessment data during times of educational disruption
- Why you should be wary of “scientific, research-based” instruction
- Guidance for identifying twice-exceptional students and SLD among English language learners
You don’t want to miss this one! Save your “seat” at S2P Virtual Conference.
I hope to see you there!
