title: A paradigm for improving effectiveness and efficiency of speech-language therapy.
abstract: This paper presents a paradigm that will help speech and language therapists learn how to improve their therapy and achieve the scientific goals of intervention more effectively and efficiently. The paradigm arises from the presenters' extensive clinical experience and represents a convergence of relatively diverse models of teaching and learning. Speech and language therapy which incorporates the critical characteristics from this paradigm is more stimulating and challenging for both the client and speech and language therapist.
