articulate and measure the outcomes of our interventions and how these relate to participants' goals and outcomes. The workshop will explore strategies and tools to: support NDIS participants to understand communication and safe and effective oral eating and drinking and how it can contribute to them achieving their goals; support participants to identify their goals and aspirations and to frame them such that they are meaningful and achievable within the life of a plan; link our interventions and service delivery to the NDIS participants' goals and aspirations; contribute to making the planning process as positive and successful as possible. Workshop participants will have the opportunity to practice drawing the links between the goals and aspirations that participants may identify and our intervention, and framing reporting and documentation to the NDIS outcome areas. Participants will also understand the NDIS outcomes framework and be aware of tools available for describing and measuring outcomes.

(W) Natalie Munro, Julia Starling The University of Sydney, NSW, Australia There is current debate about the diagnostic decision-making process (e.g. Norbury et al., 2016) and the terminology used to describe unexplained language problems in children and adolescents (e.g. Ebbels, 2014; Reilly, Bishop & Tomblin, 2014). The debate includes discussion on inclusionary/exclusionary criteria for diagnosis and treatment and questions the need to differentiate between specific language impairment (SLI) and non-specific language impairment (nonSLI). More recently, the term developmental language disorder has been recommended by an international consensus study (Bishop et al 2016). Do you know about this debate and have you had your say? In this workshop we present the current recommendations for diagnostic nomenclature, and the research evidence for clinical inclusion/exclusion criteria based on verbal vs. nonverbal IQ. Participants will participate in the debate by engaging in voluntary, technology-based, on-line polling. Audience response systems such as Socrative will allow participants to actively engage in this up to now largely “academic/researcher driven” debate. The workshop will consist of a large-group presentation, small-group interactions and individual audience response systems delivered via personal computer, iPad/tablet, or mobile phone. As results from the online polling are immediate, implications for service delivery will also be discussed. Learning outcomes include: Session Full
