Perspectives on Issues in Higher Education
Perspectives on Issues in Higher Education is now available online only, published by ASHA with HighWire Press. Perspectives is published twice annually in June and October. Division 10 is a CE Provider and offers its issues for self-study to earn CEUs.
Our Vision
To address issues affecting academicians in undergraduate and graduate programs so that together we can provide a collective voice in the Association.
Mission Statement
To foster development of ever-expanding knowledge of instruction, learning strategies, and curriculum to provide the underpinnings of education and skills for practice of the profession. To foster collaboration among programs, faculty, research laboratories, and administration so that common concerns are addressed and resolved in the best interests of our academic members.
What Makes Us Unique
Unification and collaboration among faculty at different ranks, levels of experience, responsibilities and expertise.
Division 10 has begun to plan for the future. The primary goals are to:
- Disseminate state-of-the-art information on curriculum and instructional practices that are critical to the preparation of speech-language pathologists and audiologists.
- Provide a forum for discussion and exploration of academic-related issues, such as research findings and initiatives, innovative instructional practices, and progressive methods for clinical supervision.
- Foster discussion of appropriate curricula and training in research methodology in applied and basic scientific techniques.
- Discuss and develop better ways to provide academic and clinical education.
- Promote alternative models for delivering quality education to students and practitioners based on lifelong learning needs.
- Help members understand and cope with the challenges universities face in view of current demographic, political, economic, legislative, and service delivery issues.
- Provide members with information about quality education programs across settings.
