General Information

Overview

In this unit you will learn how to work with clients who experience neuromuscular, sensory, cognitive and perceptual impairments as a result of a wide variety of neurological problems. Using the occupational therapy practice process you will gather information about the lived experience of people with these conditions and explore the evidence based literature in order to investigate best practice for collaborative goal-setting, intervention planning, service delivery and evaluation. You will extend your knowledge of the aetiology, pathology, and prognosis of various neurological conditions experienced by occupational therapy clients across the lifespan and from acute care settings through to the community. A series of case studies including presentations from real clients will be used to scaffold your learning and you will be required to analyse and select appropriate contemporary occupational therapy practice models to guide your response to these complex case studies.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from Informal Student Feedback, Student Feedback (SUTE Unit Comments), Educator Observations

Feedback

Students reported difficulty with, and feeling overwhelmed by, the need to learn and retain nine weeks of content in preparation for the In-Class Online Quiz.

Recommendation

It is recommended that the In-Class Online Quiz be divided into two separate halves, with the first half being implemented earlier in term and the second half being implemented in Week 10.

Feedback from Informal Student Feedback, Student Feedback (SUTE Unit Comments), Educator Observations

Feedback

Bundaberg students reported additional difficulties with learning cross-campus/over Zoom without the presence of an educator in the room.

Recommendation

It is recommended that the occupational therapy team continue to source an available and suitable sessional educator for the Bundaberg campus. If this is unachievable again in 2025, it is recommended that the unit coordinator explore alternating teaching presence between campuses.
