I know this is the last day of the conference so I don't expect an overwhelming response to the question I have ...
In my self-image paper for Woman and Stuttering I listed a few questions "for the professioanl". I was hoping these questions would be picked up and discussed by grad students and SLPs during the threaded discussion.
One of the questions of mine I was most interested in is the following:
We know generally that boys are called on and participate more in classroom discussion than girls in elementary and middle school. What measures are being taken by speech language pathologists and teachers to not only include female stutterers in classroom discussions, but also to identify possible academic weaknesses in the less verbal female?
Thanks for those who have any input and the time to respond today.
