Integrative Seminar I and LIFW (2)

SAR OT 500

This course is the first integrative seminar in a four-seminar sequence designed to enhance clinical reasoning processes by integrating knowledge from previous educational and work experiences with current courses and weekly fieldwork experiences. Using problem based case scenarios, simulated classroom activities, fieldwork experiences and reflective journaling, this seminar focuses on reasoning related to professional socialization, group processes, diversity, therapeutic relationships, ethical practice and other professional issues related to working with persons and populations of all ages with a variety of needs for occupational therapy practice. This seminar provides multiple opportunities for development of oral and written communication skills, individually and in groups. Self-directed, collaborative learning and class participation are an essential aspect of this seminar.
