Description
After covering paperwork, data collection, and progress reports, it’s time to wrap up our March podcast series and dive into one of Marisha’s very favorite topics… How to Use Probe Data!In this episode, Marisha talks about:What a probe is and why it’s so valuableThe best time to collect probe dataHow probe data influences your session planUsing probe data in mixed groupsRemember: If we’re not in that zone of proximal development (a.k.a. the space between what a student is capable of doing unsupported, and what they cannot do even with support) we risk hindering their progress because we aren’t giving them the opportunity to practice the skill independently and demonstrate that mastery.Collecting probe data gives us valuable data that helps us find the sweet spot of where the student needs support. This minimizes the student’s frustration if there isn’t enough support — or boredom if there is too much — and sets everyone up for success. ?SHOW NOTESFull show notes at slpnow.com/182
