A new, comprehensive resource for fieldwork educators and academic fieldwork coordinators, Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork provides a blueprint for designing, implementing, and managing Level II fieldwork programs for occupational therapy and occupational therapy assistant students across practice settings.Drawing from the expertise of renowned individuals in the field, Drs. Elizabeth D. DeIuliis and Debra Hanson provide the tools for fieldwork educators and academic fieldwork coordinators to put together learning frameworks, educational theories, and clinical instructional techniques within and outside occupational therapy in order to create and maintain high-quality Level II learning experiences. Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork challenges fieldwork educators and academic fieldwork coordinators to shift their mindset to facilitating skill acquisition and to adjust their teaching approach to match the learning needs and developmental level of the student.Designed to meet the definition of Level II fieldwork according to the 2018 Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education standards, and in response to common pitfalls and challenges in clinical education today, Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork is the go-to guide for the busy practitioner and academic fieldwork coordinator.What is included in Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork:Expansive overviews of supervision models and vignettes illustrating use across practice settingsExamples and templates to construct a learning plan, site-specific learning objectives, orientation, weekly schedules, and learning contractsTools and strategies to uniquely develop and foster clinical reasoning in fieldworkModels for dually approaching supervision and mentorshipStrategies for addressing unique student learning and supervision needsFieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork can be used as a standalone resource or as a complement to Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level I Fieldwork, which was designed in-tandem with this text to holistically address Levels I and II fieldwork education.

A new resource for occupational therapy academic fieldwork coordinators and fieldwork educators, Fieldwork Educator's Guide to Level I Fieldwork is a practical guide for faculty and clinicians to design and implement Level I fieldwork experiences for occupational therapy and occupational therapy assistant students.Fieldwork Educator's Guide to Level I Fieldwork was designed to address the challenges of integrating Level I fieldwork with classroom learning experiences. Expansive and versatile, the book meets the recently expanded definition of Level I fieldwork according to the 2018 Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education standards, including faculty-led experiences, standardized patients, simulation, and supervision by a fieldwork educator in a practice environment.Each unit of the text builds upon the previous unit. The first unit provides fundamental knowledge on experiential learning and includes an orientation to the purpose of Level I fieldwork in occupational therapy. Building on this foundation, the second unit equips the reader with resources to develop a Level I fieldwork learning plan suitable for their setting. The final units focus on situational scenarios that emerge during Level I fieldwork placements and provides a framework for assessing student learning during Level I fieldwork. While each chapter is designed to build upon one another, they also can be used as stand-alone resources depending on the needs of the reader.What is included in Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level I Fieldwork:Up-to-date terminologyExperiential learning frameworks and models in diverse contexts, including role emerging and simulationStrategies for addressing anxiety and student stress management and supporting students with disabilitiesModels to support clinical reasoning development during Level I fieldworkMechanisms to foster student professional development and communication skillsBe sure to also look into the successive textbook, Fieldwork Educator’s Guide to Level II Fieldwork, which was designed in-tandem with this book to be a progressive resource that exclusively focuses on Level II fieldwork.
