The course is focused on understanding the basic principles of a multicultural approach in the field of communication disorders, respecting cultural and linguistic diversity in global, as well as local community context. The aim is to acquire the competence to identify basic manifestations of differences in verbal and non-verbal communication in culturally-linguistically diverse groups and to use basic culturally and linguistically correct approaches in the education of individuals with special educational needs. The emphasis is also on interdisciplinary based multicultural approach to communication disorders and difficulties in counselling and clinical or social work. Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to: " understand the differences between the concepts of multiculturalism, bilingualism/multilingualism/plurilingualism and cultural-linguistic diversity in communication disorders " understand the relationship of multiculturalism in communication disorders and society-wide, global phenomena - e.g., migration in the European and global context with a link to the issue of speech, language, and communication needs (SLCN) in relation to communication disorders " understand the basics of acquisition and using multiple languages in communication, specifics of the mother tongue and interferences with other acquired languages " describe the basic specifics in the field of oral verbal communication in selected groups of individuals from culturally-linguistically diverse groups " describe the manifestations of specifics in the field of non-verbal communication in selected groups of individuals from culturally-linguistically diverse environments " orient oneself in the role of experts in communication (e.g., speech-language therapist) in the assessment and intervention of bilingual and multilingual individuals or individuals from culturally-linguistically diverse backgrounds " understand the basics of culturally-linguistically correct approaches in individuals with secondary communication disorders related to primary special educational needs " apply specific approaches in work with families of individuals from culturally-linguistically different backgrounds, including communication facilitators and the collaboration with cultural-language mediators and interpreters in educational, clinical/health, social and extracurricular contexts (community-based activities).
