In accordance with the internship agreement, interns will progressively transition from observers to semi-autonomous workers.
Training Seminar
Although most of the above learning outcomes (LOs) are covered as part of the voice training, students may have problems or questions with some of them. If so, they can raise them during the SAS. In this respect, the following is expected:
Presentation of a specific problem (40min) between November and March:
This may be a clinical case in which the student is encountering difficulties, a question relating to professional practice (Expertise), a piece of re-education equipment/technique that is puzzling, ... In short, any subject related to practice - and the above-mentioned skills - that can give rise to a constructive and formative debate.
Submit a few lines on the issue in question by email to marion.hubin@uliege.be, for prior approval.
Content: Oral presentation accompanied by a .ppt (15') + group discussion (25'). In addition to the question/issue submitted, the student is expected to provide some answers or possible solutions, and to use the specific terminology of the profession.
Form: quality of slide presentation and spelling.
The PPT of the oral presentation must be sent at least 10 working days before the presentation, i.e. excluding weekends and public holidays.
Preparation for the oral defence (30min) between April and May - formative assessment :
Presentation of a clinical case in T1 and T2, mentioning (1) the data from the assessment in T1, (2) the therapeutic objectives, (3) the development of a therapeutic objective supported by the use of tool(s) to measure the effectiveness of the intervention, (4) the data from the assessment in T2, (5) a critical look at the data in T1 and T2, (6) the presence of a bibliography mentioning at least 1 reference in English used. (10min)
Peer and tutor feedback (10min)
The presenting student will take notes for the group to record the positive points and points for improvement mentioned during the feedback.
Internship support seminar
Although the learning outcomes (LOs) listed above are, for the most part, addressed within the Voice Internship, some may still raise difficulties or questions for students. Where applicable, these may be brought forward during the SAS. Accordingly, the following is expected:
- Selection of a specific issue: this may concern a clinical case for which the student encounters difficulties; a question related to professional practice (Expertise); an exercise in plain-language/science communication; rehabilitation material or a therapeutic technique that is puzzling; in short, any topic linked to practice-and to the above-mentioned competencies-that can foster a constructive and formative debate.
- Submission for prior approval: a brief description of the selected issue (a few lines) should be emailed to marion.hubin@uliege.be for approval in advance.
- Oral presentation with slides: a PowerPoint (.ppt) presentation (15-20 minutes), followed by a group discussion (25-30 minutes). Beyond the question/issue submitted, students are expected from the outset to propose initial elements of an answer or potential avenues for solutions, and to employ profession-specific terminology.
- Submission deadline: the PowerPoint file must be submitted one week prior to the scheduled presentation.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
