Program Description
The Council of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders (CAPCSD) promotes research in Speech Language and Hearing Sciences. In support of this goal, Intelligent Video Solutions has generously agreed to fund a seed grant of $5,000 to support scholarship in evidence based clinical education in speech, language and hearing sciences. This award is intended to increase our understanding and implementation of evidence based clinical teaching approaches or general clinical education pedagogy that meets the needs of our increasingly diverse student body.
