Using Music to Facilitate Learning and Active Movement - 34836
Music’s effect on our mood and behavior has long been valued. However, its structure and effect can also be used to facilitate learning itself (cognition), and even motor skill (planning, strength, range of motion, etc.). This presentation will discuss literature-based rationale for these concepts. Additionally, the presenter will utilize her knowledge as a Board Certified Music Therapist and Speech-Language Pathologist to present practical tips for efficiently and effectively including music in therapy in working with a variety of populations. The information is particularly directed toward Occupational and Physical Therapists (and related caregivers). In addition to the Power Point presentation and handouts, hands-on learning opportunities will also be included to facilitate understanding and application. This session is aligned with the Intervention component of the TEA-required self-assessment.
