    This study was done in 2004 and looks at the development of clinical reasoning skills of undergrad OT students. The student participants took part in a 5-week intensive problem-based learning course before going into fieldwork. (This study was completed when a bachelors degree was required for an OT degree) The results concluded that the intensive problem-based learning course in the OT curriculum can promote development of students clinical reasoning skills.

    This article looked at the effects of an intense problem-based learning course on the development of clinical reasoning skilled of students in an undergraduate occupational therapy program. The researchers found that a short and intensive problem-based learning course in the senior year of an occupational therapy program can significantly improve the development of clinical reasoning skills in the students. The course had a significant effect on the way the students perceived their clinical reasoning skills and behaviors. I enjoyed this article however it did not go into any detail about what the problem based learning course entailed.

    This article looks at the efficacy of a technique called tapping facilitation for CVA patients with hemiplegic UEs. I got to learn about this technique with an inpatient who had a massive CVA when she went in for open heart surgery. Her right arm and hand were completely flaccid. We used this to work on regaining elbow flexion & extension, as well as wrist flexion and extension. This technique involves putting the targeted muscle group on a stretch (i.e. elbow/wrist flexors or extensors) and firmly tapping the muscle bellies until there was a palpable to visually noticeable "twitch" in those muscles. After this twitch was felt or observed we would passively take the elbow or wrist through the ROM we were working on so that the brain could reform the connections.

    These researchers utilized surfing for those with PTSD to assist when transitioning back into civilian life. They chose this sport to ensure attendance and retention in their program. The results showed that sport-oriented therapy can be used/beneficial when re-integrating veteran's into a civilian lifestyle.

    This web resource is presented by a registered nurse but provides a broad overview of professionalism within the healthcare arena. The author of this presentation first defines professional as someone who has specialized knowledge within a particular field and who oftentimes has completed an intensive period of academic coursework in order to begin working. A professional is also someone who upholds the ethical standards of their profession. The author then goes on to explain the various facets of professionalism. According to her, demonstrating professionalism includes being a team player, having an awareness of how your mannerisms, words, and actions can affect others, being fully accountable for your actions, using kindness, compassion, knowledge, and direct communication to lead others, as well as learning to master a mindful, calm response to an emergency. Throughout the presentation, the author highlights that although your job may not be easy and at times can be stressful and seem impossible, that is no excuse to be unprofessional. This is something important for us to keep in mind as we begin our career as occupational therapists.
