CSCD2077: Clinical Reasoning in Practice

2027 unit information

This unit focuses on equipping students with clinical reasoning skills essential for speech pathology practice across diverse contexts with individuals and communities. Building on their foundational knowledge of evidence-based practice, students learn to apply professional knowledge and critical thinking to a range of cases. The unit emphasises strengths-based approaches, interprofessional collaboration, and the delivery of person-centred and culturally responsive care. Through interactive learning activities, students will enhance their collaborative problem-solving abilities and practise clinical reasoning in real-world scenarios. They will synthesise knowledge gained throughout this unit and across the curriculum, while critically reflecting on their clinical reasoning for professional practice. This comprehensive preparation aims to prepare students to deliver high-quality, culturally responsive speech pathology services during future placements.
