Re: TLC instruction on website

[Guest guest]

Your work, when it is finished will be an excellent training tool

for people like me who like to be taken step by step through

each procedure.................I personally like to have each practical

step clearly sequenced and explained so that I can think about it and analyse it.

Learning this way makes my knowledge secure, saves time and means that

I don't have to constantly check my notes.

Videos also serve as an excellent learning tool.

Had I not made a video of people being hooked up

to EEG equipment I doubt that I would be as far on

as I am....and I still have a long way to go.

I would like to make a website that offers a quick "recipe book"

approach to protocols .............. if only I could find the protocols.

When I seek help for a protocol for a condition I get responses that

are more academic than precise practical ones which is why I like

what you have done on your web site. I know there are "ifs" and "buts"

but some newcomers need starting points which can be modified.

I love and appreciate what you are doing so please keep the group informed of your progress

TLC instruction on website

Hi folks,

While taking a class last spring I got Pete's permission to put a version of the instructions for doing the TLC out on my website. So far button clicks will display the text of the instructions (by step) and a rough picture of the sites. The "hard part" isn't implemented yet, which is to have audio/video clips of the tests for the different areas. I was wondering if anyone would mind looking at and giving their opinion on the layout and visual presentation of the site as it currently is? It won't be up as is, or in that location, very long. Thanks!

Margaret,

Thanks for the comments. I too started looking for a list of protocols. Spent a long time with a series of "success" that faded away all to quickly. I attributed this to my not having a full TLC (or similar) analysis beforehand as protocols started to "keep" much more afterwards. That was part of my reason to do the program so that I could quickly do a TLC much more often, just to see what changed, if anything.

The "program" got developed as a website just cause it's flexible and fairly straightforward to program. I'm making it available to others as a personal "motivation" to improve it.

So far this is only, and exclusively, the "front-end" of the TLC process. That is, doing the TLC. Pete's website supplies it all free. I'm just making the "extras" available (soon, I hope) for the series tasks that a second person would normally accomplish, like reading a series of numbers for the digit span exercises, etc. This way individual home users (usually newbies), or those that have trouble with "step by step" sequencing can have a better shot of doing the TLC consistently and accurately.

If someone doesn't start out knowing how to interpret the TLC, Pete's training and available protocols are available for the next steps. He will even process the TLC and custom design protocols for it so there is no need for anyone to wait while they climb that steep "knowing what to do" learning curve. For "professionals" a "recipe book" is already available with Pete's protocols. There is quite a stew! One just needs to take Pete's personal training to feel more comfortable selecting and adapting them to the individual.

Without the full background of the training the responses do seem "academic". When I want my car to get fixed I don't spend several years getting myself certified for auto repair. I go the guy who already did that. I say it makes funny noises when this-or-that happens. He does the analysis and tells me he can fix it. Pete is the TLC mechanic.

Again, doing the TLC properly is the trick. Pete will take it from there for a very reasonable fee for home users or those just starting out.

I updated my site a little while ago. Shifted things around and made the buttons bigger (especially for laptop users). No Task functionality yet. But I think I've got the basic interface set so I can work on that part next. Except the Fp1/Fp2 sites added recently.

This is great. Thanks to Pete Van Deusen for giving permission and

to you for building and sharing. I agree that the next step should

be to add audiovisuals for the actual tests.

,

Thank you for your thoughtful design and teaching tool. I have done

about 100 TLC assessments and reviewing the steps at your web site is

a good reminder of the many details in a quality assessment. I hope

you address " artifacting " the data, an important part of the process.

I look forward to your ongoing work.
