The Impacts of Co-constructing Goals in Teaching and Supervision

Best practice guides for feedback in teaching and supervision emphasize the importance of a reflective and collaborative development of goals in conversations. However, in practice, engaging in goal-oriented feedback discussions that ensure a learner centred approach and maintain program standards can be challenging to accomplish. This workshop will share a goal-oriented approach to feedback conversations that can be employed with various stages and abilities of learners, while exploring the benefits and challenges of goal co-construction in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology clinical settings.
