Prerequisites:
- Acoustic Physics and Audiology
- Voice Alterations: Assessment and Intervention
- Neurodegenerative Diseases and Dementias
It would be interesting if students are taking, or have already taken, the subject:
- Voice Education and your Health
Students will gain the necessary basic knowledge about Voice and Speech, Applied Pathology and Speech Therapy and Basic Speech Therapy.
Students will learn to make a specific anamnesis and exploration of the voice for the elderly, taking into account all the variables that are related to this population.
Students will understand and get the basics of voice aging.
Students will be prepared to make a correct early detection and prevention of voice in gerontology.
Initially, as an introduction and to facilitate the achievement of the specific contents of the subject, the necessary basic knowledge on Voice and speech, applied anatomophysiology and basic therapy will be taught.
INTRODUCTION:
- What is Speech Therapy.
- Anatomical and functional bases of the mechanisms involved in the voice and articulation.
- Normal and pathological voice.
- Anatomical-physiological bases of swallowing.
- Exploration of the voice and articulation.
- Questions about swallowing exploration.
- Optimal functional use of the voice.
- Rehabilitation techniques for voice and speech and swallowing disorders.
SPEECH THERAPY IN GERONTOLOGY:
- Anatomical and functional concretions of the mechanisms involved in the voice and articulation of the elderly.
- Aging of the voice.
- Exploration of the voice and articulation in the elderly.
- Early detection and prevention in gerontology.

[EV1] Evidence 1 (25%): First evaluation period. Test-type exam, individual, online. Partial, of the subject taught until the week before the exam. It is not a eliminatory subject test, which is included again in EV3..
[EV2] Evidence 2 (30%): Second evaluation period. Group work (maximum three students) on the topic proposed by the teacher at the beginning of the course (10 hours of independent work) and Presentation in the Classroom. Those who choose the single assessment will have to do the work individually.
Restricted use of AI: For this subject, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is allowed exclusively for support tasks such as bibliographic or informational research, text correction, or translations. The student must clearly identify which parts have been generated using this technology, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and final outcome of the activity. Lack of transparency in the use of AI in assessable activities will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may result in partial or total penalties in the activity's grade, or greater sanctions in cases of severity.
[EV3] Evidence 3 (45%): Second evaluation period. Test-type exam, individual, online. Cumulative of all the matter taught, based on the resolution of a clinical case.
All the online evaluations will be made from an UAB classroom.
Non-assessable student: if he / she has not delivered at least evidence of learning with a minimum weight of 40%.
Passed subject: pass with a 5,0 (scale 0-10) taking into account the percentage weight of each evidence mentioned above.
Students who enrole for the second time or more: Nounique final synthesis test for students who enrole for the second time or more is anticipated.
Reassessment Tests: Recovery period. Individual exam, online, test type. Cumulative of all the matter of the theoretical and practical part.
Students who have not met the criteria established to pass the subject and who have been assessed with a minimum of 2/3 of evidence of learning may choose to take the make-up test.
The reassessment may consist of two parts: a test-type test and the oral resolution of a case study or, alternatively, the student, in case of having failed a single test, may choose to be re-evaluated from the test not passed.
Chrono: EV2 must be delivered no later than two weeks before EV3.
Single Evaluation at the endof the second evaluation period:
Languages: The exams are in Catalan, they will only be translated if the requirements established in article 263 are met and your application is made electronically (e-form). You can find more information at the web Faculty. The assignments and their presentation can be in Catalan or Spanish.
Honors: In any case, the maximum achievable mark will be a 10, although the relative mark will be taken into account when awarding possible Honors.
Type of Return:
EV1 - In the Classroom - Same day as the exam
EV2 - Tutoring, and in the Classroom the same day as the exam
EV3 - In the Classroom - Same day as the exam
