Syllabus
I. Templates for presentation of clinical cases and case studies
II. Communication of clinical information (in written and oral format)
III. The role of evidence for practice in Speech Therapy
Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes
The curricular unit Discussion of Clinical Cases aims to enable students to present and discuss clinical cases, integrating knowledge of Speech Therapy acquired to date, contact with practice through clinical teaching and the possibility for the student to deepen the their knowledge in specific contexts of Speech Therapy and/or complementary and similar. It also allows to deepen knowledge in other areas of activity previously addressed in other curricular units of the course.
Teaching methodologies
- Case Study
- Debate
- Peer reflection and discussion
Demonstration of the teaching methodologies coherence with the curricular unit's intended learning outcomes
Classes take place in the form of seminars. This option is justified by the fact that the cases presented by the students – selected from clinical cases with which the student came into contact during clinical education – require the prior preparation of a significant amount of information. The student must compile in the user's clinical file all relevant information for the presentation and discussion of the case in a “team”, and prepare a brief and sustained oral presentation, in accordance with the guidelines provided by the teacher of the curricular unit.
Organized in small groups, the colleagues are responsible for stimulating the discussion and for preparing an assessment report on the case discussed.
Both the oral and documentary presentation of the case (individual component) and the discussion (oral and written/report), facilitated by the group (group component), are subject to evaluation.
