The Neuropsychology of Reading Disorders A Framework for Effective InterventionsWe will examine reading from a brain-based educational perspective, and classify developmental reading disorders into four distinct subtypes. Steven will discuss the Feifer Assessment of Reading battery, a comprehensive and innovative new reading test designed to examine the underlying cognitive and linguistic processes that supports proficient reading skills.

Collaborative & Proactive Solutions Beyond the Three Steps, PART IMaking extensive use of video footage, Dr. Greene provides a more advanced look at the ins and outs of solving problems collaboratively with kids.

DAY 1 | Wednesday, October 28, 2015 DAY 2 | Thursday, October 29, 2015 DAY 3 | Friday, October 30, 2015

A Collaborative Partnership Forging Relationships and Developing Solutions for Our Most Vulnerable YouthDo kids with social, emotional, and behavioural challenges need more carrots and sticks, or do they need help solving the problems that are affecting their lives? Why do the problems that affects kids lives so often result in conflict between them and their caregivers? What does the research on behaviourally challenging kids tell us about what they really need? In this keynote, Dr. Greene answers these questions…and more!

Exploring Social Thinking’s Core Teaching Frameworks & Related Teaching Strategies Social Thinking is a treatment methodology providing frameworks and related teaching strategies to help kids improve social skills. In this keynote address, Michelle, the originator of Social Thinking, will explore why we need to do more than simply teach social skills in order to help our students more effectively adapt their behaviour based on the situation and the people involved. Michelle will provide strategies that can be utilized at home and school.

Neurological Strategies for Building Students’ Emotional Self-Management, Motivation, Perseverance, and their Construction of Neural Networks of Long-term Concept Memory Stressors in the classroom, including boredom and frustration, can block input from reaching the prefrontal cortex to become memory. The brain’s stress-activated blockade also prevents the reflective executive function control system from communicating with the lower brain response centers. You’ll learn new strategies to promote the understanding necessary for students to construct neural networks of long-term, transferrable concept memory.

Collaborative & Proactive Solutions Assessing Lagging Skills and Unsolved ProblemsIf you want to proactively solve problems with kids, you need to identify those problems proactively.

Violence and Youth, Part I: Violence Risk Assessment and ManagementThis workshop reviews research-based and developmentally-informed conceptualizations of violence among youth. The potential roles of mental disorders in contributing to violence risk among youth is discussed. Evidence-based assessment and intervention approaches are described with an emphasis upon community-based strategies.

Robert Kinscherff, PH.D. 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Trauma What’s in a Word?Ms. Peters-Bennett will describe the neuro-developmental effects of early abuse and neglect, the process of dissociation and hyper-arousal and its effect on the development of the four main areas of function in children (sensory processing, self regulation, relational skills, cognitive capability). She will discuss the continuum of harsh punishment and overt child abuse and the dose rate relationship to negative mental and physical outcomes.

Robbyn Peters Bennett, MA, LPC 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Assessment of Childhood Anxiety DisordersAnxiety disorders are highly prevalent in schools, and recognition and assessment are crucial to – and should set the stage for – effective treatment. In this breakout group, Dr. Ollendick will describe assessment strategies for anxiety disorders of childhood and adolescence.

Thomas H. Ollendick, PH.D. 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Current Treatment Models for Children with ASDThis workshop provides an overview of the spectrum of treatment models for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Group school based social skills models will also be discussed and illustrated.

Karen Levine, PH.D. 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Steven G. Feifer, D.ED., NCSP 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Using Brain Research to Help Students Develop Their Executive FunctionsThe information age in which today’s students live in is one where information and validity needs to be critically analyzed. The demands of the accelerated quantity of information incorporated into each grade level and the temptations of immediate gratification from video games and social media, mean today’s students need their executive functions to be at top efficiency.

Judy Willis, M.D., M.ED. 1:15 PM – 2:30 PM

Collaborative & Proactive Solutions Introduction to Solving Problems CollaborativelyPartnering with kids on solving the problems that affect their lives can be hard for adults, at least until you’re good at it.

This workshop will cover the overarching principles of positive discipline from a neuro-developmentally informed perspective.

Robbyn Peters Bennett, MA, LPC 2:45 PM – 4:00 PM

Treatment of Childhood Anxiety DisordersOften it’s thought that anxiety disorders must be treated exclusively in clinic-based settings. But effective intervention often takes place in the settings in which the anxiety occurs. In this breakout group, Dr. Ollendick will describe treatment strategies for various anxiety disorders of childhood and adolescence.

AFTERNOON CONCURRENT SESSIONS AFTERNOON CONCURRENT SESSIONS AFTERNOON CONCURRENT SESSIONS

Treatment of Anxiety in Children with ASDAnxiety and emotional dysregulation are very common in children in children with autism spectrum disorders. This workshop illustrates how emotional dysregulation triggers can be conceptualized within a phobia treatment model and then illustrates specific approaches to treating common fears, phobias and meltdown triggers. Adaptation of CBT and uses of gradual exposure will be discussed.

The Neuropsychology of Written Language Disorders A Framework for Effective InterventionsThis workshop will explore the neuropsychological underpinnings of the writing process to assist educators and mental health professionals in both diagnosing and remediating written language disorders in children. The ability to generate and produce written language requires multiple linguistic skills involving both phonological and orthographical functioning.

Using Brain Research to Help Students Develop Their Executive FunctionsYou will learn new strategies and recognize the ones you are already using that are most effective for activating the neuroplastic growth of the executive function networks during their peak of responsiveness. You’ll come away with plans ready to put into action to activate these critical skillsets for all learners in all grade levels and subject areas.
