Enhancing Your Clinical Instruction with Reflective Practice

May 10, 2024
11:00 am  - 1:00 pm

Clinical education is essential to the development of future speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Supervised clinical experiences, where SLP graduate students apply the knowledge, skills and professional behaviors learned in the classroom, are a core component of clinical education and a requirement of SLP graduate curriculum. Supervised clinical experiences cannot occur without SLPs who choose to serve as clinical educators. Just as graduate students must acquire the knowledge, skills and professional behaviors needed to be competent clinical practitioners, practicing SLPs must learn a unique set of teaching and learning skills to be effective clinical educators. This course explains how reflection and reflective practice are key elements in the skill building process for both graduate students and clinical educators, relating this to the learning principles of mastery, metacognitive instruction and self-directed learning. The course also provides reflective practice strategies that can be utilized in clinical education to enhance student clinical learning and SLP clinical educator effectiveness.

Supporting Children Who are Gender Fluid

May 23, 2024
11:00 am - 1:00 pm

This training will help participants understand the ways that children develop their gender identity.  A focus will be given on understanding diverse identities beyond the binary notion of gender.  Beyond this foundational information, we will discuss ways to support children who are gender expansive in early educational settings.  Using children’s literature to support inclusive and welcoming spaces will also be explored.
