This endowed chair (0.4 FTE research, 0.1 FTE teaching) is established at Utrecht University on the account of the Royal Auris Group (Koninklijke Auris Groep), a nationally operating institute for the care and education of children with hearing, speech, and language problems. The chair is embedded in the section Special Education: Cognitive and Motor Disabilities (Orthopedagogiek: Cognitieve en Motorische Ontwikkelingsproblemen) of the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences at Utrecht University. The chair connects the fields of clinical linguistics and psycholinguistics with special education and educational sciences, and addresses the inclusion of children with Developmental Language Disorders (DLD) and other serious language learning problems in regular early childhood education and care settings and primary schools.
Research (0.4 FTE)
The chair studies how pedagogical-didactic models, learning environments, digital educational tools, and strategies of professional development can be designed and arranged to optimally support children with DLD and other serious language problems within regular, ‘inclusive’, early education and care centers, primary schools, and integrated child centers. The research of the chair will be planned and conducted in cooperation with Royal Auris Group. The chair will support the professionals working within Auris, contribute to their professional development, and make results and products of research available to them. The research tasks of the chair also include acquisition of research funds and contracts.
Teaching (0.1 FTE)
The teaching tasks concern the bachelor’s program Pedagogical Sciences and the master’s program Clinical Child, Family and Education Studies, and address the nature, causes, diagnostics and treatment of DLD and other serious language delays in inclusive early childhood education and care and primary education.
