Pedagogical practices in communication sciences and disorders have grown thanks in
part to innovative techniques from other fields. The articles in this activity each present
models that can be successfully incorporated into our discipline. Slavych describes
models of backward course design—course development that starts by focusing on
learning outcomes before considering content or teaching methods. Squires and Squires
introduce best–worst scaling, a method for examining group preferences, and reported
on how it can inform admissions practices. Speights Atkins et al. describe models of
mentoring undergraduate research experiences and their applications in two
communication sciences and disorders research labs. Finally, Perryman et al. examine
the effects of a mixed-reality simulation in which actors playing parents interacted
through computer avatars with undergraduate students carrying out clinical procedures.
Learning
Outcomes
You
will be able to:
- design or redesign a course with the principles of backward design in
conjunction with the Understanding by Design framework
- describe an area in which best–worse scaling could be used to measure
strengths of preference
- analyze different models, approaches, and resources for mentoring
undergraduate researchers
- summarize the value of using a mixed-reality clinical simulation to teach
preclinical undergraduate students counseling and interpersonal skills
Assessment
Type
Self-assessment—Think
about what you learned and report on the Completion Form how you will use your
new knowledge.
