  12. +Delivering Effective Feedback within the OT Competencies of Practice Using the Competency Based Fieldwork Evaluation and Student Feedback on Site Learning Program

  13. +Change in Model of Education Fieldwork has moved away from a model of education where classroom learning was followed by skill practice and evaluation within the field setting.

  14. +Philosophy of Fieldwork Education Application of knowledge and skills Transfer of skills Acquisition of context specific knowledge and skills Recognition that fieldwork can occur within any setting in which the profession can develop a role.

  15. +Objectives of Clinical Evaluation Evaluate the student's performance in fieldwork Monitor the student's competency development Ensure the student is qualified to enter professional practice

  16. +Learning Objectives Level 1 Define OT role and develop professional identity Understand the role of OT and comparing the role of OT in other settings Develop observational skills to observe all aspects of OT interventions and communicate observations with clinical educator to report his/her observations to peers, and other team members Interact Professional and demonstrate professionalism initiate contact with other professionals and share client issues understand the role of the interdisciplinary team Demonstrate competency in communication write simple notes share thoughts with clinical educator in a clear manner report client issues using professional terminology in team meetings (with supervision) Perform a client interview and share findings with clinical educator

  17. +Learning Objectives Level 1 Analyze activity (plan activities for treatment and analyze the activities with accuracy) Implement assessments and plan treatment perform parts of or complete assessments (when appropriate) Collect data and synthesize information begin process of synthesizing information gathered from interviews and assessments write short and long term goals Apply the concepts of feedback, critical thinking, clinical reasoning as well as self-directed learning and reflective practice Develop personal learning objectives in CBFE Complete a critical appraisal of a research article

  18. +Learning Objectives Level 2 Demonstrate self-directed learning in daily practice Be able to give and receive feedback to peers, supervisor and other team members Demonstrate initiative, problem-solving and clinical reasoning in all aspects of clinical practice Demonstrate competence in time management, setting priorities and arranging daily schedule (with minimal supervision) Be involved in the whole OT intervention (process as per fieldwork) setting from assessment to treatment and client discharge and understand the specific OT role in each of these stages of client care

  19. +Learning Objectives Level 2 Critically assess patient change and modify care plan as appropriate Demonstrate flexibility and adaptability with regards to client care Be accountable for his/her patients Refine clinical reasoning process by asking questions, finding answers and demonstrating competence in patient care Identify and utilize all available learning resources to achieve competence in placement and enhance learning Develop personal learning objectives (in CBFE) Complete a critical appraisal of a research article

  20. +Learning objectives Level 3 Establish own learning objectives and self-evaluate their performance (in CBFE) Achieve entry-level professional competence in communication, initiative, problem-solving and professionalism Be independent in work management skills Demonstrate entry-level to practice clinical reasoning and critical thinking Carry a workload which is close to that of entry-level practitioner upon completion Be fully accountable for his/her patients and use clinical educator as a coach/mentor. Demonstrate motivation to be involved in other areas of practice and role-emerging areas. Be independent in representing patients in all aspect of health care interventions Liaise with community agencies and be an advocate for his/her patients Complete a critical appraisal of a research article

  25. 2. Clinical Reasoning Demonstrates analytical thinking Demonstrates conceptual thinking Demonstrates good judgment and sound decision-making Utilizes good problem solving Demonstrates reasoning based on evidence

  26. Students learning objective (s) Critical Reasoning Resource(s) Required to Meet the Objective(s) Objective(s) Evidence Validation

  27. + Exercise: Scoring Practice Using the Competency-based Fieldwork Evaluation

  28. +Vicky Level 1 student Undergrad in Rehabilitation Science (OT) Rotation: Private clinic pediatrics and adults Practiced an in-house evaluation and observed her supervisor perform this evaluation > 5 times Takes a long time to complete the evaluation despite the practice and tends to omit parts of the evaluation Requires help to look at the results and generate treatment goals Open to feedback and identifies the areas of improvement and potential tools to help herself

  29. +Rebecca Level 2b student QY student with an undergrad in Psychology Rotation: Acute care setting (Medicine) Adult & Geriatrics Communicates easily with the team members In team meetings, she actively participates by commenting on the activities her clients are doing. When doing initial interviews, she has difficulty to speak loud enough and use a lot of technical terminology . Her progress notes are very detailed, but somewhat repetitive Responsible for making her own schedule Overwhelmed by her large caseload and difficulty to stay up-to-date and to prepare her interventions in advance

  30. +David Level 3 student Undergrad in Biology Rotation: Out patient Mental Health, addiction unit Follows his own caseload (new clients and clients from his supervisor) Performs evaluation on new clients and designs treatment plan Consults his supervisor for some aspect of treatment (especially for different ideas) David s evaluations are thorough but still takes longer than his supervisor to complete Asks for regular feedback and prefers hands-on experience

  31. +Any strategies you would recommend? Schedule time for midterm evaluation upon arrival Obtain feedback from other staff members Include specific areas for improvement and clear expectations Discuss in the midterm and final evaluation meeting the rationale behind the comments Clarify by providing examples to support the feedback Maintain positive approach to evaluation - provide areas of improvement balanced with areas of strength Keep the areas for improvement to a reasonable amount so student can focus on these Set aside time each week to discuss the placement overall Recognize that each placement is unique Allow time for the student to adjust

  32. +Tips for Evaluation Before Meeting Ask student to engage in self evaluation in order to share perspectives While Meeting Give balanced feedback Be specific, give examples, use action verbs Discuss differences in evaluation At midterm, set objectives for rest of placement At final, indicate whether performance expectations were met and identify areas for future improvement Student s and supervisor s signature Provide a copy of the CBFE-OT to the student

  33. +Fostering Self Critique What they want to work on What they need to work Climate and opportunities for self-critique

  34. +Feedback and Expectations Expectations from McGill Expectations for each level of performance Supposing is good, but finding out is better . Mark Twain

  35. +Functions of Feedback To confirm strengths To learn about areas for improvement To identify barriers to achieving goals To encourage alternate behaviors & actions To provide motivation for change.

  36. +Feedback in Fieldwork Students want to know How am I doing? How can I improve? What does my supervisor think of my work? Supervisees reported receiving far too little direct feedback, especially feedback that was critical Gaiptman & Anthony, 1993, Kadushin (1992)

  37. Presumed relationship between fieldwork experience and stages/levels Knowledge and Skills Learned in Stages ENTRY LEVEL CLINICIAN Consolidation Transition Stage 3 Knowledge Application Stage 2 Stage 1 ENTRY LEVEL STUDENT Stages of Professional Competency Development

  38. +Expectations Level 1: Knowledge Application Primary emphasis is: Exploring the role of an OT Development of interaction skills with clients, family members, fieldwork educators and other health care personnel Style of supervision: Direct and active Primary Role of Preceptor: Educator

  39. +Feedback to Level 1 Students Articulate performance expectations and objectives clearly Provide specific instructions of how to do things Feedback: Direct, concrete, frequent Consistent Supervision always readily available

  40. +Expectations Level 2: Transition Primary emphasis is: As much practice and experience as possible! Style of supervision: Collaborative Primary role of preceptor: Coach

  41. +Feedback to Level 2 Students Promote student self-reflection Prompt with appropriate questions Engage in discussion of several solutions to occupational performance problems Encourage student to begin to make decisions about the most viable course of action.

  42. +Expectations Level 3: Consolidation Primary emphasis is: Final preparation for entry to practice Independence in application of the occupational therapy process Style of supervision: Consultative Primary role of preceptor: Mentor

  43. +Feedback to Level 3 Students Student self-reflection should be self-initiated Encourage student to identify and pursue professional learning needs Work "collegially" with the student

  44. +How to give feedback? Take into consideration the receiver s needs Describe the situation carefully and accurately first Verify the comprehension Accept the responsibilities Give feedback: for the good reasons at the right time and place appropriate and relevant to the context in small quantities

  45. +Constructive Feedback Is offered on a voluntary basis (should not be imposed) Is descriptive ( interpretation) Is clear and concrete ( general) Focus on problems ( the person) Includes the ability to change

  46. +Strategies for Giving Feedback Feedback should be kept to a reasonable amount Give bite-sized, time- limited chunks of feedback that are easy to comprehend and digest

  47. +Strategies for Giving Feedback Be the One Minute Supervisor Give One minute feedback Recognize what the student is doing well Try to stick to a few key points per discussion.

  48. +Providing feedback to Rebecca Meal preparation evaluation Provides clear and understandable instructions Conscientious of her client s safety (stay close by) Did not notice the poor posture and compensations used by her client Appears uncomfortable reminding her client that she had forgotten to turn off the stove When her client asked for feedback about the evaluation, she told her client that she did a great job, without informing her of the many difficulties observed

  49. + Learn from your mistakes
