Pre-Conference Presentation: “How Video Can Support Therapy”

Abstract:

This preconference will teach attendees new ways to conceptualize and use video to enhance their clinical practice. We will present 5 units of lecture followed by attendee participation and open discussion.

(1) The Power of Video. 

(2) Video as Demonstration. 

(3) Video as Documentation. 

(4) Video as Data. 

(5) Video Sharing. 

Learning Objectives: 

At the end of this preconference course, participants will be able to:

  1. Appreciate the power of video to capture changes in motor behavior that are difficult to observe in the moment.
  2. Use video to demonstrate procedures and interventions for training and teaching purposes for parents, patients, students, and practitioners.
  3. Apply video to expand on standard assessments by documenting behavioral change due to therapeutic intervention and development.
  4. Implement video-based tools to transform behavioral observations into reliable, quantitative data.
  5. Contribute to the creation of a digital video library for clinicians to share demonstrations, documentation, and data with stake holders.
