This course defines and describes the types of simulations utilized for clinical education in communication sciences and disorders (CSD). The learning theory behind simulation education will be presented, with the process and examples of debriefing specifically highlighted.

This course is designed to share the components of effective and collaborative interprofessional education (IPE) using simulations as a foundation for teaching and learning. The course will provide the opportunity to work through and apply real-world, evidence-based examples for allied health professionals.

This is Part 2 of the five-part series, Improving Pediatric Feeding Assessment Skills. Tongue functioning is important for the control of food and liquid during the feeding process. This course will discuss the types of disordered tongue movements that interfere with eating and how those deficits may impact the child's feeding as a whole.

This is Part 1 of the five-part series, Improving Pediatric Feeding Assessment Skills. Lip functioning is important to the efficiency of feeding. This course will discuss the types of disordered lip movements that interfere with eating and how those deficits impact the child's feeding as a whole.

Boost your supervisor prowess with dynamic techniques designed to enhance your practice. Using the ASSURE model as a guide, this course will demonstrate how to develop a master plan that infuses self-analysis and instructional methods to inspire and enthuse your inner mentor.

This course will provide an overview of the World Health Organization's (WHO): "Patient-Centered Focus on Function" as it relates to collecting information about children from foreign language background, and using evaluation data for short- and long-term program planning. Case studies will be used to illustrate how data is gathered and conclusions are drawn about best ways to serve these children's needs.

This course will review the history and theory supporting the use of simulation. It will also provide an overview of the different types of simulation modalities.
Please note: This course uses a different recorded format from most of our courses; arrows on the playbar must be used to progress through the course. When playback stops after the course introduction, use the right arrow key to progress to the second slide, where you can read the full playback instructions.

The Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA) Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) certification examination includes questions from a variety of content areas. One of those areas is Recreational Technologies. This course will cover the content area including recreational technologies for people who have motor, cognitive, and/or sensory impairments. Areas addressed include play, games, sports, and exercise.

This course presents Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) topics included in the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA) Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) certification examination. It will address definitions, terminology, access methods and strategies to optimize use, as well as mounting and interfacing with power wheelchairs.

This course presents Cognitive Technologies topics included in the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA) Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) certification examination. Cognitive technologies are designed to increase independence and safety for clients with cognitive impairments, and the content of this course will include definitions and categories of equipment, as well as examples.
