Bodily Sensations

Insofar as GTAs train medical students to become attuned to the sensations in their own bodies in order to examine the body of another, this process is particularly interesting in the context of teaching and learning the pelvic exam. There, objects of the medical students’ attention—cervix, ovaries, and uterus—are enclosed on the inside of the whole, fleshy body of another person, and learning to discern organs, healthy or diseased, relies on learning to “read” one’s own bodily sensations appropriately. This creates novel tensions and troubles thinking of the body in terms of subjects and objects, insides and outsides, parts and wholes.

Early Literacy Assessment

Abstract Determining how best to address young children's African American English use in formal literacy assessment and instruction is a challenge. Evidence is not yet available to discern which theory best accounts for the relation between AAE use and literacy skills or to delineate which dialect-informed educational practices are most effective for children in preschool and the primary grades. Nonetheless, consistent observations of an educationally significant relation between AAE use and various early literacy skills suggest that dialect variation should be considered in assessment and instruction practices involving children who are learning to read and write. The speech-language pathologist can play a critical role in instituting such practices in schools.
