This practice placement will be of 6 weeks full time duration. By the end of the practice placementeach student should have successfully completed 216 hours of assessed practice education

The placement will give studentstheir first experience of practice and will form the foundation for the

development and application of professional knowledge and skills. Students will be supervised by qualified occupational therapists and will work under their guidance.

Students will be expected to work in an ethical and non-discriminatory manner.

Students will be expected to collect and collate information for future studies and to establish thepractice placement element of the professional development portfolio.

Students will be actively involved in supervision and the preparation for it.

Assessment PatternFormat ive:Students are assessed by their practice educators. At the mid way appraisal the practice educatorcompiles the practice placement assessment report form, providing students with written feedback on theirperformance. It guides the actions to be taken by the practice educator and student during the remainder ofthe placement.Summat ive:

The final evaluation is completed and graded by the practice educator at least one day before theend of the practice placement and discussed with the student. This provides the student with the opportunityto review the report before signing it and returning it to the practice educator. Weighting 100%.

Students engage in a self-appraisal of their performance in preparation for both the mid way and final

evaluations

Can this Module be Anonymously marked? Yes/No If No please provide anexplanationNo. Assessment of students performance during practice placement relies upon personal supervision

Content Introduction and orientation to the service and its context

Practical application of skills: 24 hoursStudents are required to apply theoretical anatomical knowledge and understanding to the livingbody, using a hands-on approach. Students will work with each other in pairs, and in small groupsand are required to practise practical skills on each other.

Self-Directed:- 32 hours

Directed study:- 44 hoursIndependent learning is encouraged with provision of a workbook and reading references, and

access to a range of anatomical models, charts and skeletons. Practical rooms are booked for selfstudy time to encourage practice of hands-on practical skills. Provision of anatomy DVDs and CDROM learning material with self-testing programmes are also provided to support group learning.

Total student effort - 100 hours

This practice placement is of 8 weeks full time duration and occurs at the end of level 2. By the end ofthe placement student should have successfully completed 288 hours of assessed practice education.

Students will be expected to work in an ethical and non-discriminatory manner.

Students will work closely with qualified occupational therapist(s) and will be guided by them.

The placement will provide the student with experience of working in a different area from

professional practice placement 1 and will aim to explore the transfer of knowledge and skills within thepractice setting.

Students will continue to collect and collate information in their personal and professional developmentportfolios.

Students will be actively involved in the evaluation of their own performance.

Assessment PatternFormat ive: Students are assessed by their practice educators. At the mid way appraisal the practice educatorcompiles the practice placement assessment report form, providing students with written feedback on theirperformance. It guides the actions to be taken by the practice educator and student during the remainder of theplacement.Summat ive:The final evaluation is completed and graded by the practice educator at least one day before theend of the practice placement and discussed with the student. This provides the student with the opportunity toreview the report before signing it and returning it to the practice educator. Weighting 100%.Students engage in a self-appraisal of their performance in preparation for both the mid way and final evaluations

Can this Module be Anonymously marked? Yes/No If No please provide anexplanation.No. Assessment of students performance during practice placement relies upon personal supervision.
