We have implemented the
Occupational Therapy Student Performance Assessment (OTSPA) for past
three years.
Because of our experience in
this innovative method, we presented a course on it at the 2003
American Occupational Therapy Association Annual Conference, held in
Washington, DC in June.
In the OTSPA, students get the unique opportunity to assess a
simulated client who is a trained actor, and then develop an
intervention plan in a time-limited manner. This invaluable exercise
simulates what will be expected of students in their future
occupational therapy practice.
