OTD 6160 Level I Fieldwork and Seminar Experience I

2 Hours

Students participate in directed observation and participation at clinical fieldwork sites, enabling the student to gain professional behaviors as well as be exposed to practice with individuals with psychosocial challenges. This practicum allows the student to observe a practitioner applying his/her expertise and affords the student the opportunity to participate in a dialogue about this process. This fieldwork experience includes a weekly fieldwork seminar that emphasizes clinical reasoning and documentation through classroom analysis of observations, with an emphasis on psychological and social factors that influence engagement in occupation and that strengthens ties between didactic learning and clinical practice.
