Issue: Despite the perceived benefits of simulation in other disciplines, mixed research on simulation in occupational therapy (OT) education currently exists. This project explored the practical application of classroom learning to a standardized patient encounter (SPE)through methodological and intentional design. Method: Second-year OTD students at UT Health San Antonio participated in the SPE. The purpose was for students to complete an OT evaluation during the SPE. Quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed to answer the following questions: 1) What is the impact of simulation on student learning outcomes for our OTD students? 2) What are the student's perceptions of their performance? Outcomes: The results showed that the SPE effectively met student learning objectives. Students identified strengths in interview skills and weaknesses in assessment administration and time management. Students reported positive perceptions of the SPE. 76.6% of students strongly agreed that it was beneficial in preparation for fieldwork and reported increased confidence clinical reasoning. Conclusion: OT educators should continue to implement simulation and adapt the curriculum based on identified needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
