Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and board-certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) work with clients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In general, these practitioners support a variety of skills during treatment, including language, social skills, daily living, and academics. Video modeling (VM) is an intervention that is often used to improve skills (e.g., independent living, social, behavioral, academic) for clients with disabilities. It is unknown how SLPs and BCBAs are specifically using VM to support clients, including those with ASD. The primary purpose of this study was to use an existing perception scale to analyze SLPs' and BCBAs' perspectives on and use of VM. Results have indicated that while most practitioners have heard of VM and use it with clients, barriers related to training and video creation still exist. VM is still predominantly used in clinics and special education classrooms, indicating that this evidence-based strategy is being used, but more training and generalization support is needed.

Background And Objectives: Serous otitis media (SOM), also called otitis media with effusion (OME) or glue ear, is a collection of non-purulent fluid within the middle ear space. Children with cleft palate are more prone to develop this condition. This is caused by impaired eustachian tube function in cleft palate.

Purpose: This preliminary study sought to explore speech-language pathology students' perspectives of a novel placement experience embedding traditional and non-traditional placement and supervisory model-elements in a hospital setting.
Method: A mixed-method sequential explanatory design was used, incorporating an online survey comprising of 26 questions and a focus group. Descriptive statistics were obtained and a reflexive thematic approach was used to analyse the transcripts.

Purpose: Children with developmental language disorder are likely to face challenges related to grammar difficulties. Existing empirically supported grammar interventions are typically developed using an expert model without acknowledging the community voices of clinicians who deliver such interventions. This project aims to explore the perspectives of Tasmanian speech-language pathologists on grammar intervention priorities and protocols for developmental language disorder through a participatory action research approach.
