Learning OutcomesUpon successful completion of this subject, students should:
- Justify the selection of structures/functions to assess and modes of assessing speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing functions, utilising holistic, evidence-based, ethical and cultural frameworks. This will be demonstrated by writing a series of assessment plans for individuals with speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing difficulties.
- Assess speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing functions, and analyse and synthesise assessment data with professionalism and care, based on holistic, evidence-based, ethical and cultural frameworks, and using appropriate technical skills. This will be demonstrated by completing a portfolio of practical activities and interpreting sensory-motor assessment data provided for individual cases, justifying your interpretations and writing a professional report.
- Report assessment procedures, analysis and professional decisions regarding speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing functions, based on holistic, evidence-based, ethical and cultural frameworks, using communication, technical and creative skills appropriate to a specific audience. This will be demonstrated by writing a series of assessment plans for individuals with speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing difficulties, interpreting sensory-motor assessment data and writing professional reports.
- Apply knowledge of speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing to justify analysis and interpretation of assessment data, based on holistic, evidence-based, ethical and socio-cultural frameworks. This will be demonstrated by interpreting sensory-motor assessment data and writing professional reports.
- Apply research principles and procedures to the assessment of speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing functions in individuals across the lifespan. This will be demonstrated by writing a series of assessment plans for individuals with speech, voice, stuttering and/or swallowing difficulties, completing a portfolio of practical activities, interpreting sensory-motor assessment data and writing professional reports.
