Adult Education Communication Language Linguistics Public Health Education Recreation Rehabilitation Speech Therapy Therapy Teacher Education Museums Museum Studies Aphasia Communication Disorders Speech-Language Pathology Rehabilitation Stroke Community Education Accessibility Recreation Museum Communicative accessibility is often sparse, preventing individuals with communication disorders from effectively participating in their lives and in society. Supported Conversation for Adults with Aphasia (SCA) teaches interlocutors to provide communicative supports to people with aphasia or other communication disorders so that they may rejoin the conversation and continue interacting in their communities. This study aimed to train volunteer docents at the Toledo Museum of Art to effectively provide aphasia-friendly art museum tours and aimed to understand the process involved in developing and executing that training. 13 volunteer docents were trained in SCA strategies during a 60-minute training program presented by a person with aphasia (PWA), a speech-language pathologist, and a speech-language pathology graduate student. A single volunteer docent was then observed across four art gallery tours for SCA strategy use. Triangulation between docent observation, questionnaires with PWA, and interviews with PWA indicate that training was beneficial and may have assisted the docent in providing aphasia-friendly tours. Interviews with project collaborators were additionally conducted, indicating that the project offered a variety of benefits for many potential populations. Feedback was provided to inform future training efforts. 2020-05-20 English text Bowling Green State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1586515207124486 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1586515207124486 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
