    Spectrum

    Sound is everywhere, it’s as much a part of our lives as the air we breathe and the food we eat.

    Yet many of us become stressed or uncomfortable with sounds in our own home, school, work, and public places, and aren’t even aware of it. Negative sound exposure has a scientifically proven impact on health, sleep, attention, learning, communication, listening and more.

    There is an easy and effective solution… The Listening Program® SPECTRUM is a foundational program created for children and adults with sensory sensitivities in need of a therapeutic intervention, and those listening for wellness. SPECTRUM creates a healthy relationship with sound by training the brain with pleasing evidence-based music which can improve brain processing of sound, reduce sensory sensitivities, and help people find comfort and safety in their environment.

    Featuring an extensive library of High Definition music recordings performed by the award-winning Arcangelos Chamber Ensemble, SPECTRUM is offered in Spatial Surround® sound providing a wide variety of listening with a rich tapestry of sound featuring compositions by Mozart, Haydn, Vivaldi, and Danzi. TLP Level One Certification Training Information for Professionals

    • Sensory motor function
    • Rhythm awareness
    • Focus & Attention
    • Timing
    • Adaptive responses to stress
    • Improved Sensory Processing

    inTime is a compilation of original compositions, based on a blend of world music with diverse percussion, string, and wind instrumentation, which accents the power of rhythm and sound frequencies. inTime provides an adaptive process of personalized listening training and specific movement activities using body, drum, and voice so your listeners keep the beat, and flow with the rhythms of daily life. 

    Learning Objectives and Outcomes:   

    • Cite research supporting the use of rhythm within inTime.
    • Demonstrate foundational competence in program planning, including personalizing listening protocols and incorporating activity options, using drum
    • Explain how to implement the inTime listening and activity protocols with a client.

    The ability to synchronize movement to a steady beat relates to the brain’s response to sound.    

    Musical training with an emphasis on movement synchronization to musical beats may improve brain synchrony, with the potential to benefit children with reading difficulties and other auditory- based language impairments.  

TAVS – The Test of Auditory and Visual Processing 

This is a comprehensive course for professionals to become qualified in the administration of the Test of Auditory and Visual Skills (TAVS); including lecture, independent study, and hands- on practical experience. You will acquire the knowledge you need to begin using this exciting tool for screening auditory and visual processing.

Further, you will understand the individual elements that make up strong auditory processing skills and be able to use TAVS to assess them. These areas such as temporal processing, pitch perception, gap detection and beat competency are known to be vital for strong listening, language development, reading and rhythm awareness.

Upon successful completion of this course, learners are authorized to administer TAVS, a versatile screening tool for ages 5 which is ideal for use with The Listening Program, inTime, and other interventions that seek to improve fundamental sensory processing skills.

Learning Objectives and Outcomes:

  • Review and understand auditory processing terms, screening areas, and relate them to functional skills.
  • Understand the scientific basis for testing the 12 areas offered by TAVS.
  • Hands-on experience with in the use of the TAVS device, prompt cards, user guide, and record sheet.
  • Demonstrate competence in the administration of the pretest, quick and full screening, adjusting screening parameters, recording and interpreting results.
  • Implement the TAVS assessment which children and adults.

Many children who struggle academically are offered catch up phonics, literacy and numeracy programmes without considering that the delays in learning may be more fundamental in nature than a simple lack of experience and practice. Underpinning the ability to read, listen, concentrate and communicate is the ability to take in and process auditory and visual information.

The testing of areas such as temporal processing, pitch perception, gap detection and others are vital to understanding at what level a child is delayed. This information can guide a teacher or therapist to know exactly what level of intervention or remediation is needed to ensure the quickest progress for the child.

TAVS offers a powerful way to assess many areas of low level visual and auditory processing to know whether sensory processing is impaired and if it is suitable to solely focus an intervention upon more cognitive levels of function Assessment Tool Training (TAVS) Certification Course 2018
