Faculty/Staff Detail

David Kilpatrick, Psychology Department, presented a one-hour workshop at the annual conference for the New York Association of School Psychologists on Oct. 28. The workshop was titled “Not all Phonemic Awareness Tests are Created Equal.” Phonemic awareness is a very important linguistic skill that affects learning to read. The workshop was designed to assist school psychologists in determining if a student’s reading difficulties were influenced by difficulties in phonemic awareness. The conference was held Oct. 27-28 at the Turning Stone Resort in Oneida, N.Y.
