DESCRIPTION:Brittany Koegel from the Department of Psychiatry and Behaviora
 l Sciences at  Stanford University School of Medicine will present Practic
 al Strategies to Encourage Autistic Children’s Language as part of Lehig
 h University Autism Services' Community Learning Series.\n\nKoegel's prese
 ntation will focus on research-supported strategies that have been shown t
 o significantly increase child engagement in learning\, increasing the spe
 ed of new skill acquisition. She will cover the concepts of child choice\,
  task variation\, interspersal of maintenance and acquisition tasks\, natu
 ral reinforcers\, and reinforcing attempts. \n\nThis lecture will present
