All of these tasks must be completed in a timely manner and submitted to the tutor for feedback. This will be a project that has been identified by occupational therapists at a Brisbane facility and the terms of which have been negotiated with those therapists. Students will need to be highly organised and professional in their approach to carrying out this project. The project is likely to be one specific to a particular clinical caseload or area that may require careful consultation with therapists, communication and practical interaction with clients and interfacing with the literature in particular areas. Students have had Mondays kept clear in their timetable for much of the semester to allow this project to be completed.
Planning is of the utmost importance in seeing the project to completion.
Groups will be informed of these appointments well in advance and will be expected to make every effort to fully attend. I mplicit in this clinical project are the expectations that students will work effectively as a small group, will be respectful of the needs of other group members and of their responsibility to the group, will make equitable contributions to the group project and will make every effort to adhere to mutually agreed group meeting times and arrangements. This must be handed to the group s tutor within the week following the initial meeting with the tutor. At the end of the project, each group of students will submit a report in which the group process is summarised and group members' contributions are specified. A quantitative estimate of each member's contribution and a description of roles undertaken must be provided.
