PT 442 Integrative Seminar II
The integrative seminars are a series of 2 courses designed to provide situational/contextual learning experiences within the academic curriculum. These seminars provide a forum for developing clinical reasoning skills in preparation for your physical therapy practice. Students will be given advanced training in scientific and clinical literature to facilitate a life-long professional habit of evidence-based practice. The integrative seminars promote applying and integrating newly acquired knowledge with previously-learned knowledge and experiences to a clinical reasoning framework. This course aims to integrate knowledge from the basic sciences, clinical research and evidence-based practice, biomedical sciences, clinical skills, and self-reflection. This 2nd integrative seminar is designed to increase understanding of multi-system plasticity occurring in populations with and without neurological deficits. We will explore the relationship between rehabilitation and plasticity with experiential learning. You will also need to integrate information from your prior courses, including Anatomy, Biomechanics & Kinesiology, Neuroscience, Musculoskeletal Patient Management, Therapeutic Exercise, etc. This 2nd integrative seminar will also include a standardized patient simulation.
