Clin Reasoning & Prof Devel

Catalog description

This online course will examine both the clinical reasoning process that guides occupational therapy practice and professional development as a responsibility of professional practice. Clinical experiences from Level II fieldwork will be analyzed as the context for exploring these issues. The student is encouraged to critically explore their own practice while integrating didactic material, concepts of occupation based practice, clinical reasoning, reflection, and evidence-based decision-making. This course is taken concurrently with Level II fieldwork or with instructor permission. This course reinforces general education skill areas of reasoning and problem solving and the general education values/attitudes area of reflective and purposeful learning.
