In speech-language pathology graduate programs, the use of appropriate pedagogical techniques for teaching and measuring ethics knowledge can be difficult to discern and implement. This presentation will explore current evidence-based literature for teaching methods that are most successful for increasing foundational knowledge and ability to solve ethical dilemmas in speech-language pathology graduate students. Guidance on how to develop and implement a structured ethics training program will be provided to encourage attendees to implement structured ethics training within their programs.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe at least three different pedagogical methods for structured ethics education in graduate students.
  • Defend the use of pedagogical methods for structured ethics education in graduate students based on current research
  • Explain the limitations of embedding ethics education in the curriculum as compared to structured ethics training in graduate students.
