Dr. Samer Mohsen, the Dean of the Faculty, pointed out that the training workshop is aimed at students of the Audiology and Speech and Language Therapy Departments. Music is used in these specialties as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. The purpose is to familiarize students with specialized concepts and dimensions related to the use of music, which are not covered in their curriculum. Specialized music professors are consulted to introduce students to its concepts and connections with the concepts they study in their courses, in order to enhance their understanding.
Dr. Mohsen explained that students who delve deeper into their specialization use music as a training tool when dealing with certain cases, such as cochlear implants for individuals with central auditory disorders. This requires them to choose the type of music that suits the patient. Additionally, music is used in the treatment of neurogenic language disorders based on the principle of rhythm, which should be perceived and understood by the therapist. This is the main objective of this workshop.
Amin Turkmani, the music workshop trainer, explained that the workshop aims to establish a connection between the field of music and the students through theoretical explanations and practical application. Music has connections in many areas of life and influences individuals from childhood. It contributes to the development and refinement of personality over time. He emphasized that the practical aspect of the workshop will focus on distinguishing between tone, melody, and rhythm, and demonstrating their importance and impact on a person's life. Music is not limited to a specific group of people, and it is not a field that requires specialized knowledge. Any person can recognize musical activities, melodies, and their meanings regardless of their level of education.
