This presentation explores the impact of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) on Listening and Spoken Language (LSL) service delivery and clinical practice. It discusses the current applications, future trends, and potential benefits for enhancing therapy outcomes and professional development in these fields.
By the end of this session, the learner will be able to:
- Identify the key disruptive technologies currently influencing the fields of LSL, speech-language pathology and audiology, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and telepractice.
- Describe how these technologies are being implemented in clinical settings, and discuss their potential benefits and limitations in service delivery.
- Apply the knowledge gained from the presentation to enhance their own practice or administrative strategies, fostering a more efficient, effective, and student-centered service delivery model.
