This presentation was for the Central Piedmont Community College Special Education Class and Childcare Resources childcare teachers. The attendees learned about early diagnosis of hearing loss, and early intervention services available in the state of NC and were made familiar with technology; hearing aids, cochlear implants, and FM systems. Participants received continued education certificates of credit.

This presentation was for the UNCC Child & Family Dev. Conf. Attendees learned the importance of play in early child development. I co-presented with a colleague who provided developmental information on language and play in Hispanic learners. This presentation included video clips of both English and Hispanic toddlers engaged in play with family and the use of interpreters in home coaching sessions.
