Framework for Using a Language Acquisition Model in Assessing Semantic and Syntactic Development and Planning Instructional Goals for Hearing-Impaired Children.

Schirmer, Barbara R.

Volta Review, v91 n2 p87-94 Feb-Mar 1989

The proposed framework assumes six developmental stages according to mean length of utterance in morphemes. Within each stage, syntactic forms and semantic relations interact. In assessment, each utterance is analyzed for features which describe current language abilities. Language goals are developed based on existing and expected features. (Author/MSE)
