CD 5674 Adult Language Disorders
Treatment Observation
Observe an adult language treatment session. (10 points). Your observation
must include at least 30 minutes of direct contact time, therefore more
than one session may be necessary, depending on the setting. Write a summary
of the observation, including the materials and treatment protocols utilized,
the performance of the client (these can be your informal judgements if
necessary) and your reflections about the session.
General guidelines:
-
Two pages will likely be sufficient to summarize and reflect on a session
-
It is preferred that you observe a therapy session for an acquired
language disorder, however if you choose to observe an adult client with
a developmental language disorder, please address the following issues:
-
describe how the treatment techniques utilized were the same or different
from those used for acquired disorders
-
discuss how the observed behaviors were the same or different from those
typically seen in acquired disorders, specifically addressing whether the
client exhibits deficits like/unlike acquired syndromes (aphasia, right
hemisphere deficits, TBI, dementia)
-
This project should be completed independently.
