Dr Kate Margetson and I have a grant through the Rural Health Research Institute to develop the Speech Assessment of Children’s Home Languages (SACHL, Margetson & McLeod, 2025) https://www.csu.edu.au/research/multilingual-speech/speech-assessments/sachl and to ensure it is relevant to all speech pathologists including in rural and remote settings.
This morning we
- reflected on our presentation at the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (Nov 2024)
- prepared our presentation for the (rural) Central West Speech Pathologists (7 Feb 2025)
- worked on our chapter for a book to be published in Italian
- looked at speech assessments in languages other than English (including the HKCAT that just arrived by mail from Prof Carol To in Hong Kong).
We have already been productive in our first week back from holidays!
