Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
The course focuses on assessment techniques and logopaedic care for people with severe language disorders and complex communication needs.
1. Communication functions and partners
- Theoretical aspects
- Relation to complex communication needs
3. Neurodevelopmental disorders: intellectual development disorder and autism spectrum disorder
The neurolinguistic aspects of each disorder (linking cerebral particularities with specific language and cognitive profiles) will be addressed.
4. Motor impairments
- Cerebral Palsy - CMI and CPOE
- Visual impairment and deafblindness
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of this programme, students will :
- be familiar with the specific features of language or communication disorders in the various disabilities targeted ;
- be able to propose a language and communication assessment adapted to the characteristics of the disabilities targeted;
- be able to construct a therapeutic project targeting language and communication in the various disabilities targeted;
Prerequisite knowledge and skills

- YSTG9028-1 Stage de logopédie développementale de M1 et séminaire d'accompagnement de stage
To enrol on the course, it is strongly recommended that you have completed and passed

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
- Theoretical course
- Individual practical exercises, in the form of clinical case studies designed to develop clinical reasoning, are regularly made available on eCampus, at least at the end of each chapter. The aim of these exercises is to facilitate the gradual assimilation of the course content and to prepare students to apply it in clinical situations. The scenarios presented and the reasoning they require are then discussed and analysed as a group during the course.

oral exam
Further information:
Assessment for the course consists of an individual oral examination held during the examination period.
The examination primarily assesses students' ability to apply and integrate knowledge acquired throughout the course when analysing a clinical situation, identify and prioritise relevant information, formulate and compare clinical hypotheses, and justify their clinical reasoning and decisions regarding speech and language assessment and/or intervention.
To progressively prepare students for this type of clinical reasoning, individual formative clinical vignettes will be made available regularly on eCampus throughout the semester. These exercises will gradually increase in complexity and provide opportunities to practise analysing and integrating the course content. Feedback and/or discussion will subsequently be provided during class sessions.
These exercises are formative: the quality or accuracy of the answers will not contribute to the examination grade. However, a one-point bonus on the final grade (/20) will be awarded to students who complete all formative clinical vignettes within the specified deadlines.
