SLP 456Interprofessional Simulation3
The primary objective of this course is to examine the interrelationship of various healthcare professions through simulation activities. In this course, students will examine the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to establish effective teamwork across healthcare disciplines. Teamwork has been found to be one of the key initiatives within patient safety that can transform the culture of healthcare delivery. Patient safety requires effective communication and other teamwork skills to deliver quality healthcare and to prevent medical errors, patient injury, and harm. To address this, health sciences students will explore a team-based, interdisciplinary, integrative approach to healthcare delivery through online self-study, simulation, debriefing, and self-reflection. Speaking emphasis skills will be assessed during performance of case presentations in simulations and analytical oral interpretations of the performance in debriefing. Students will examine strategies that enhance collaboration, l communication, and patient safety, leading to integration of various perspectives into a unified framework of healthcare delivery.
SLP 501Foundations of Research in Speech-Language Pathology1
This course is a survey of research methods in speech-language pathology. The overall goal this course is to cultivate students' understanding of the scientific method. Through read activities, lectures, and discussions, students will learn how research is not only releva integral to successful clinical practices/treatments.
Explores disorders of early language acquisition and factors that may place infants and toddlers at risk for normal communication development. Assessment and intervention are examined from the perspective of developmental, behavioral, team-based, and family- centered frameworks. 110
SLP 512Child Language Disorders II: School Age - Adolescent3
This course addresses language disorders at school age, including the impact of oral language impairments on the acquisition of literacy skills by speakers of general American English, speakers of dialects, or English language learners. It also addresses strategies for prevention, identification, diagnosis, and intervention within a model of interdisciplinary collaboration that emphasizes cultural sensitivity and other standards of effective collaboration.
This course provides students with fundamental knowledge of the nature, evaluation, and management of acquired motor speech disorders - including the dysarthrias, apraxia of speech, and other neurologic speech disturbances.
SLP 516Adult Neurogenic Language and Cognitive Disorders3
The course provides a theoretical and practical orientation to the area of acquired neurogenic communication disorders, including aphasia and acquired cognitive-communication disorders associated with traumatic brain injury, right hemisphere damage, dementia, and other neurogenic conditions. It will provide neurological and theoretical bases for the principles of diagnosis and management of persons with acquired communication disorders. Evidence-based management approaches will be presented and discussed along with contemporary models.
SLP 521Assistive Technologies for Communication and Participation3
This course will provide a broad overview of normal and atypical communication development with a special emphasis on aspects relevant to teachers. Specific importance will be given to the various types of communication disorders, their characteristics, and the impact of high and low level technology, specifically, augmentative and alternative communication systems and assistive technologies to support the child with disabilities in the K-12 classroom. This will be accomplished through a practical, project-based, and interactive online learning environment. Distance education offering may be available. Equivalent courses: EDA 521
Consideration of the nature, causes, diagnosis, and treatment of stuttering and related disorders of speech flow. Critical review of pertinent research.
The purpose of this course is to develop understanding of evaluative and therapeutic interventions used in improving communication ability and for individuals of all ages with hearing loss and their family members.
SLP 545Augmentative and Alternative Communication3
This course is a three-unit graduate required course. The purpose of this course is to develop an understanding of information related to the evidence, strategies, techniques, and issues that are unique to the field of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). The class includes an in-depth review of the assessment process as well as the AAC needs of individuals with developmental and acquired disabilities across the age continuum. Hands-on experience with various methods of AAC strategies and devices will provide a clearer understanding of AAC intervention.
