Abstract

Iowa SLPs have been using a variety of Service Delivery Options to provide the most effective and efficient instruction for entitled Speech and Language students for the past 10 years. The concept of providing service to students using a variety of options, providers and settings is not new. Research indicates that utilization of a variety of service delivery options supports student progress. (Blosser, J. 2002) When a student is entitled for Speech and Language services, decisions are made in regard to the least restrictive environment, with consideration given to the unique combination of providers, instruction and environment needed to meet the specific needs of each individual. · As we consider each of the SDOs, we ask the following 4 questions based on the information gathered from our teaching oriented evaluation system: 1) What needs to be taught with consideration given to the student's current level of performance and stage of learning? 2) How should the skill be taught? 3) Who will be the best person/people to teach the skill? 4) Where will the instruction take place?
