| Sumario: | "Values and practices within the profession of speech and language therapy are based in deeply embedded assumptions that form a tacit knowledge base, not always accessible to practitioners and students of speech and language therapy. Received wisdom about what a speech and language therapist (SLT) does greatly influences the development of professional identity. Unspoken sets of values that surround the work of SLTs in the UK in the 21st century are often unchallenged and unexplored in the professional literature. Reflecting on the ways in which our universities and placement experiences prepare student practitioners for their career, we are faced with a range of unarticulated prejudices and preconceptions. This book aims to explore and challenge the ways that students are prepared for professional practice. It reflects a diversity of views and will contribute to a broader, richer conversation about issues that lie under the SLT profession." -- Publisher's description |
