Writing meaningful social communication goals can be difficult, but using a strengths-based framework can make it a bit easier. In this course – which is broken into six 5-minute activities – presenter Kim Murza utilizes a goals rubric to help school SLPs write meaningful and measurable social communication goals that support independence and engagement as long-term objectives. She then guides you through actionable steps to use the rubric to write student goals and reflect on the outcomes.
