Abstract

This paper examines the effectiveness of a cross-curricular, ntegrated project completed by graduate students in communication sciences and disorders. Student perceptions of preparedness to practice clinically were collected for 18 variables at pre- and post-project intervals. Students indicated that integrating material across courses was helpful in understanding the interrelationship between the content taught in separate courses. Implications and applications of these findings are discussed as next steps for clinical training programs.
