Learning Experiences The module will engage the student in the following types of learning experiences: This practice placement will be of 6 weeks full time duration. By the end of the practice placement each 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 the practice placement element of the professional development portfolio. Students will be actively involved in supervision and the preparation for it.
Assessment Pattern
Formative:Students are assessed by their practice educators. At the mid way appraisal the practice educator compiles the practice placement assessment report form, providing students with written feedback on their performance. It guides the actions to be taken by the practice educator and student during the remainder of the placement. Summative:The final evaluation is completed and graded by the practice educator at least one day before the end of the practice placement and discussed with the student. This provides the student with the opportunity to 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? explanation Content

Yes/No
No. Assessment of students performance during practice placement relies upon personal supervision Introduction and orientation to the service and its context Observation of and collaborative working with the practice educator and others Experience of working with service users and others Practice of interpersonal and communication skills Risk assessment Interviewing and assessment Participation in aspects of intervention/case management Documentation skills

The module will engage the student in the following types of learning experiences: This practice placement is of 8 weeks full time duration and occurs at the end of level 2. By the end of the 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
30
professional practice placement 1 and will aim to explore the transfer of knowledge and skills within the practice setting. Students will continue to collect and collate information in their personal and professional development portfolios. Students will be actively involved in the evaluation of their own performance.
Assessment Pattern
Formative: Students are assessed by their practice educators. At the mid way appraisal the practice educator compiles the practice placement assessment report form, providing students with written feedback on their performance. It guides the actions to be taken by the practice educator and student during the remainder of the placement. Summative: The final evaluation is completed and graded by the practice educator at least one day before the end of the practice placement and discussed with the student. This provides the student with the opportunity to 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
