Book Program Evaluation Exploring Effectiveness of Experiential Learning Activities on Transition to Practice in an Occupational Therapy Educational Program

Download or read book Program Evaluation Exploring Effectiveness of Experiential Learning Activities on Transition to Practice in an Occupational Therapy Educational Program written by Kari M. Williams and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed methods program evaluation sought to determine the current curriculum's overall effectiveness in relation to student readiness for fieldwork. The use of teaching practices in this occupational therapy curriculum was evaluated to determine if they support a successful transition to professional practice. Qualitative data was collected through semistructured interviews to ascertain student satisfaction with the educational program, student readiness for fieldwork, and the student perception of the educational program's mission. Semistructured interviews were also used to gain insight from fieldwork educators regarding student readiness for practice and the effect of the program mission on student performance. Quantitative data was collected to determine differences in self-efficacy levels of students at varying levels in the program. An analysis of variance was run on the mean scores of the student confidence questionnaire for each educational cohort. There was not a significant effect between educational levels on self-efficacy. The findings showed that overall, students are satisfied and feel prepared for fieldwork and that the fieldwork educators who supervise the students feel they are prepared. The findings also showed that students and fieldwork educators agree that the program's mission does positively impact student behavior in practice. The quantitative findings showed the need to examine further the effect of teaching practices on student self-efficacy. This study concluded that there is a need to implement more robust and varied experiential learning practices into the current curriculum in an effort to positively effect student self-efficacy.

Book Occupational Therapy Practice Framework  Domain and Process

Download or read book Occupational Therapy Practice Framework Domain and Process written by Aota and published by AOTA Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As occupational therapy celebrates its centennial in 2017, attention returns to the profession's founding belief in the value of therapeutic occupations as a way to remediate illness and maintain health. The founders emphasized the importance of establishing a therapeutic relationship with each client and designing an intervention plan based on the knowledge about a client's context and environment, values, goals, and needs. Using today's lexicon, the profession's founders proposed a vision for the profession that was occupation based, client centered, and evidence based--the vision articulated in the third edition of the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process. The Framework is a must-have official document from the American Occupational Therapy Association. Intended for occupational therapy practitioners and students, other health care professionals, educators, researchers, payers, and consumers, the Framework summarizes the interrelated constructs that describe occupational therapy practice. In addition to the creation of a new preface to set the tone for the work, this new edition includes the following highlights: a redefinition of the overarching statement describing occupational therapy's domain; a new definition of clients that includes persons, groups, and populations; further delineation of the profession's relationship to organizations; inclusion of activity demands as part of the process; and even more up-to-date analysis and guidance for today's occupational therapy practitioners. Achieving health, well-being, and participation in life through engagement in occupation is the overarching statement that describes the domain and process of occupational therapy in the fullest sense. The Framework can provide the structure and guidance that practitioners can use to meet this important goal.
