According to the World Health Organization (WHO,2010), interprofessional education (IPE) occurs “when two or more professions learn about, from and with each other to enable effective collaboration and improve health outcomes” (p. 13). ASHA-accredited programs are actively engaged in addressing the first part of this definition by incorporating IPE experiences...
Publishing a research article in a peer-reviewed journal is a colossal act of deferred gratification, wherein the academic researcher undergoes a rigorous process of generating an idea, working out a scientific method, securing institutional permission to conduct the research, analyzing the results, formulating and writing a manuscript, submitting the article...
Audiology programs across the nation faced the same questions in mid-March 2020: What will we do now? How will we deliver excellent clinical education and serve our patients while conducting clinics and classes virtually? What learning opportunities will the students miss? How can students learn clinical skills best during this...
Following the lead of Joe Duffy (2016), I started asking graduate students in my motor speech disorders classes to imagine (a) what their clinical practice will look like in 10 years and (b) how technology will affect clinical practice. Invariably, these discussions include some version of artificial intelligence (AI) such...
Challenges In late February, when we first considered the potential impact of COVID-19 on clinical education, each wave of information contained profound implications for what might be coming. Each possibility seemed unbelievable- never before had clinical education as we knew it been essentially shut down. Two short weeks later, as...
Well-known is the shortage of PhD academic-researchers in audiology, speech-language pathology, and speech and hearing science. The severity of this issue was officially recognized by ASHA and the Council of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders (CAPCSD) in a 2002 report: Crisis in the Discipline: A Plan for Reshaping...
Background Doctor of audiology (AuD) programs work with students for 3–4 years, providing them with the knowledge and skills needed to be successful professionals capable of delivering audiological services across the full scope of practice. Most academic programs developed ways to establish a student’s competence level before embarking on the...
It’s a great time to serve as a clinical educator in audiology or speech-language pathology. As a professional organization, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) recognized the need to educate clinical supervisors about the principles and practices of evidence-based clinical instruction across practicum settings (e.g., on-campus clinic, off-campus clinic, AuD externship,...
A research laboratory is the center of discovery and training of researchers at every level of experience and expertise. Research integrity pervades all aspects of lab life, beginning the moment a new student enters the lab and continuing through the development of independent research projects and programs. Human subject research...
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association defines interprofessional education (IPE) as “an activity that occurs when two or more professions learn about, from, and with each other to enable effective collaboration and improve outcomes for individuals and families whom we serve” (ASHA, n.d.). Recognizing the importance of IPE in the provision of...
