This course provides an in-depth analysis of the therapeutic benefits of occupations, in all areas of ADL, IADL, Play, Leisure, Work and Social Participation.

Occupation-based activity analysis techniques are utilized to allow students to recognize the possible influences of activity demands, social, cultural, personal, and temporal contexts on occupational performance. Students learn how to implement the teaching- learning process as they train others to use occupational and developmental theories to engage in occupations from birth through older adulthood. Students develop resources, teaching skills, observation techniques, and therapeutic use of self.
