They review, critique, and apply theories of adult learning and principles of teaching and learning in order to develop a personal teaching philosophy. They apply this knowledge by providing an individual, formal presentation. Students explore development of academic occupational therapy curriculum and review education standards. To gain self-awareness, highlighted throughout the course, students complete self-assessments informed by reviewing their recorded presentation and peer feedback.
