Partner strategies when assessing deafblindness
Disability issues
Dynamic and semi-structured assessment techniques can reveal hidden potentials in persons with deafblindness. The partnership is the key to finding those assets. In this webinar The Nordic Cognition Network will share their insights into this approach.
Join The Nordic Cognition Network in Relation to Congenital Deafblindness in a webinar to unpack the world of cognitive assessment and optimalisation within the deafblind field.
In this session, network members will explore dynamic and semi-structured assessment techniques, placing the partnership at the heart of the process and shedding light on accessible standardised measures that can reveal hidden potentials.
They will share insights into an asset-based approach to assessment within the context of deafblindness, and the importance of diverse and creative practice within our approach. We will also look at partner competencies and strategies and consider a dialogical approach within the assessment process.
This free webinar will summarise key ideas and themes for those working in the field of deafblindness, assessment, education, and cognition.
