Learning outcomes are what students know, understand and are able to do on completion of a unit of study. They are aligned with the University's graduate qualities and are assessed as part of the curriculum.

At the completion of this unit, you should be able to:

LO1. demonstrate entry level skills (as described by the COMPASS competency assessment in speech pathology, 2013) in paediatric clinical contexts
LO2. formulate, prioritise and review clinical solutions independently, considering best available evidence in the context of all other relevant factors (e.g. ICF framework or developmental/cognitive abilities)
LO3. utilise entry level oral and written professional communication skills in English independently, for a range of purposes
LO4. create and implement best practice clinical assessment and intervention independently for clients and other significant personnel (e.g. families, professionals or communities)
LO5. select and deliver culturally appropriate clinical services for Aboriginal clients as well as clients from cultural backgrounds different to yours
LO6. construct or adapt clinical services independently in order to provide holistic clinical services in multi or inter-disciplinary contexts, as well as work interdependently within the scope of speech pathology practice through recognition and respect of personal and professional boundaries
LO7. independently self-appraise your own conduct in all paediatric clinical contexts in accordance with professional ethical standards as described in the Speech Pathology Australia, Code of Ethics (2010)

Graduate qualities

The graduate qualities are the qualities and skills that all University of Sydney graduates must demonstrate on successful completion of an award course. As a future Sydney graduate, the set of qualities have been designed to equip you for the contemporary world.

GQ1	Depth of disciplinary expertise Deep disciplinary expertise is the ability to integrate and rigorously apply knowledge, understanding and skills of a recognised discipline defined by scholarly activity, as well as familiarity with evolving practice of the discipline.
GQ2	Critical thinking and problem solving Critical thinking and problem solving are the questioning of ideas, evidence and assumptions in order to propose and evaluate hypotheses or alternative arguments before formulating a conclusion or a solution to an identified problem.
GQ3	Oral and written communication Effective communication, in both oral and written form, is the clear exchange of meaning in a manner that is appropriate to audience and context.
GQ4	Information and digital literacy Information and digital literacy is the ability to locate, interpret, evaluate, manage, adapt, integrate, create and convey information using appropriate resources, tools and strategies.
GQ5	Inventiveness Generating novel ideas and solutions.
GQ6	Cultural competence Cultural Competence is the ability to actively, ethically, respectfully, and successfully engage across and between cultures. In the Australian context, this includes and celebrates Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, knowledge systems, and a mature understanding of contemporary issues.
GQ7	Interdisciplinary effectiveness Interdisciplinary effectiveness is the integration and synthesis of multiple viewpoints and practices, working effectively across disciplinary boundaries.
GQ8	Integrated professional, ethical, and personal identity An integrated professional, ethical and personal identity is understanding the interaction between one’s personal and professional selves in an ethical context.
