Learning unit contents
This seminar is designed to focus more specifically on the two more transversal competences of the ULiège speech & language therapy competency framework:
1) Establish a professional relationship by communicating in an appropriate manner. The emphasis will be on the 'collaborating with other professionals' situation.
2) Develop the required expertise in order to provide patients and society with a quality service, by adopting the approach of lifelong learning and development of the profession, and by demonstrating professional ethics.
The seminar is comprised of two parts, which each focusing on a specific competence.
During the first term, the seminar is focused on the 'professional relationship' competence in collaboration with neuropsychology students (tutors in charge: Anne-Lise Leclercq & Christelle Maillart). Two intradisciplinary sessions followed by interdisciplinary sessions are planned on the basis of a clinical vignette using the ARPc educational tool, which focuses on learning to solve complex problems.
The emphasis in the second term is on the 'Expertise' competence (teachers in charge: Nancy Durieux & Christelle Maillart). In this part, students who were already acquainted with the evidence-based approach in Y1 of the master's degree, will extend their training in this approach by examining the issue of clinical guidelines.
Overall, the seminar is a place of learning that encourages the development of reflexiveness and the decompartmentalisation of the field of action in speech & language therapy, by proposing shared moments of reflection on an identified problem (e.g. making a conclusion; therapeutic choice). It is an integrative learning mechanism designed to help students to put into perspective their clinical experiences from their placement.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of the part devoted to solving complex problems, students will be able to:
- Identify the speech & language therapist's field of action in a complex care situation;
- communicate information to other professionals in a clear, polite, well-argued and adapted manner;
- fit into a multidisciplinary job.
- Formulate a clinical question;
- Familiarise themselves with the patient's preferences;
- Find the relevant guidelines based on a clinical situation;
- Critically assess the selected clinical guidelines.
