Course: Video analysis – A holistic perspective

Within the field of deafblindness, video analysis has been used as a tool commonly to understand various aspects of the individual’s development, and the relations they engage in. Traditionally one perspective at a time has been used in the analysis focusing on social relations and communication. Additionally, this course will use multiple models and perspectives to understand the person and the relation as a whole.
Please note that there are only 24 seats available for this course.

The course will cover issues such as 

• Why use video analysis?
• In which ways can we analyse a video sequence to understand the person’s potential?
• In which ways can we use video analysis to understand the interaction and cognitive supportive strategies used by the partner? 
• In which ways can the use of different models and perspectives contribute to the analysis?
• How can video analysis help us in planning new supportive interventions?
• How can video analysis be incorporated in guidance to support professionals and/or parents?
