  2. Evaluations • Reviews of relevant content can help students improve their performances • Students could use your departmental policy and procedure manuals for specific performance criteria • Feedback by more experienced therapists can help correct errors and prevent development of bad habits http://www.allhealthcare.com/nfs/allhealthcare/attachment_images/0003/9496/mastersdegree_crop380w.jpg

  3. Fieldwork Supervisors • Ask students to demonstrate how to accurately conduct interventions • Think about your performance of a task and the factors that help you refine procedures • You probably automatically adjust therapeutic activities based on client performance • Students must learn to revise procedures while engaged in therapeutic activities http://www.healthpronet.org/images/ahp_07_03_3.jpg

  4. Improving Students’ Interventions • Ask students to: • Practice specific tasks until a certain level of competency is reached • Watch videotapes of role models conducting tasks; record observations and identify steps that role models perform more proficiently than the students • Write personal learning objectives to measure performance improvements; include measurable criteria, conditions, and timelines http://www.cawn-krantz.com/site/pics/724/58714/231246/316694/OT_photo.JPG

  5. Improving Students’ Interventions • Ask students to: • Create procedural checklists with performance steps and comments columns • Example: Procedural Analysis for _____________

  6. Improving Students’ Interventions • Ask students to: • Videotape themselves performing tasks; critique themselves using checklist form (see previous slide) • Role-play procedures with other students or therapists; have subjects give variety of responses so students learn to score, discontinue, or reconstruct in different scenarios • Provide evidence-based research to explain intervention choices • Produce “occupation” kits for clients http://www.aboveandbeyondtherapy.com/images/services.jpg
