NOVEMBER 2001 Celia R. Hooper PhD - Home Page & guide* to the ASHA convention GONE This encyclopaedic site is the brainchild of photogenic clinical professor of speech-language pathology, Celia Hooper, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A sometimes evaluative, often instructional, and consistently  topical, maze of links leads the web voyager on a mind-expanding journey incorporating Hooper's passion for clear communication with patients and families, her enthusiasm for clinical practice (especially voice disorders) and her dynamic approach to student preparation. You will notice, if you drill deep, that SPHS350 looks like a lot of fun! The library of  web teaching techniques Hooper has been developing with input from students since 1998 is unsurpassed. If you agree - send fan mail!  chooper@med.unc.edu  *The guide is entirely unofficial.

MAY 2001 YAACK YAACK is not quite an acronym, representing as it does the dual concepts of "Augmentative and Alternative Communication" and "Connecting Young Kids". The YAACK web site was produced by Ruth Ballinger as a component of a Master's degree in Special Education final project. It provides outstanding coverage of issues related to AAC and young children. The purpose of YAACK is to inform and guide families, teachers, speech-language pathologists and others involved with children with special communication needs.

JANUARY 2001 Time to sing! Time to sing! is a collection on CD of 27 children's songs geared to the needs of children with developmental apraxia of speech, specific language impairment, auditory processing difficulties and fluency and word retrieval problems. Retaining musical integrity, the arrangements and orchestration achieve a high artistic standard.  The tempo of each song has been slowed, the music never masks the vocals, and some of the words that are difficult for children with communication problems to say have been changed. And it's a lot of fun! Link hand-checked May 3 2008   For the first time the 'Site of the Month' is not a web site, but a very special CD.  Many of the children speech-language pathologists see cannot 'sing along' (or even 'say along') because videos, TV programs, audiotapes and CDs contain rapid dialogue and rapid singing.
