Doctor of Physical Therapy Students to Host Free Gross Motor Group Sessions for Children

Families in the Springfield area are invited to participate in Gross Motor Group Sessions hosted by third-year Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students at American International College (AIC) and their instructors. The sessions are designed to help improve children’s gross motor skills through a series of guided exercises and activities. 

 

AIC is seeking up to fifteen participants between the ages of three months and fifteen years whose families are interested in addressing gross motor skill development. The program will consist of four free 45-minute Wednesday sessions, taking place on October 23 and 30, as well as November 6 and 13, from 3:15 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The sessions will be held at AIC’s Colaccino Center for Health Sciences at 1020 State Street in Springfield. 

 

Assistant Professor of Physical Therapy MaryAnn Kniska, PT, DPT, encourages families to participate if they have concerns about their child's movement or gross motor development, which includes skills like crawling, walking, stairs, and jumping. “These sessions are ideal for families looking to support their child’s ability to perform large muscle movements essential for daily activities,” said Dr. Kniska." We ask that participants be available for all four sessions so we can assess the child’s function and offer activities that will help enhance their abilities." 

 

For more information or to register, please contact AIC’s Physical Therapy Department by calling 413-205-3046 or by emailing Kristin.cerasa@aic.edu. 

Introducing the 2024 Criterion

Greetings Campus Community, 
 
The 2024 edition of The Criterion is finally here! 
 
The Criterion is AIC’s annual literary publication and features artwork, photography, poetry, short fiction, creative non-fiction, and essays from AIC undergraduates. View this edition of The Criterion HERE
 
This year’s publication features student assignments from such courses as Creative Writing, Digital Photography, History of Art, History of Photojournalism, Composition, and Analytical Writing. It showcases the innovations and complex identities from some of our community’s most talented artists. 
 
The publication includes several provocative collages, colorful illustrations, and professional photographs. It also features personal essays written on the theme of “the self in contradiction,” and a handful of “braided essays” that bring two narrative threads together in a powerful juxtaposition. It showcases the challenges that students face before and during college, and it offers a space for narrative experimentation and risk-taking. This year’s publication also features some sample essays in MLA style.  
 
Please take some time to help us celebrate the artistic achievements of our students. You can view The Criterion by clicking HERE
 
This year’s cover was designed by Mar Busqueta. 
 
Thank you!
 
Will Steffen, PhD
