OTD 6430 Interventions in Cognition and Perceptual Disorders

2 Hours

This course examines the visual, cognitive and perceptual disorders associated with developmental or acquired disabilities. This course integrates knowledge of the overall cognitive and perceptual skills, applies this knowledge to clinical simulations, and develops the student’s ability to problem solve in determining the injuries and deficits that may occur as a result of developmental or acquired conditions. Students will also learn strategies used with perceptual and cognitively impaired populations in determining the effect of the impairment on the components of human performance.
