The Scholarship of Practice: Academic-Practice Collaborations for Promoting Occupational Therapy closes this gap by presenting a conceptual framework that integrates theory and research with clinical practice. Leaders in the field provide insightful, thought-provoking ideas and strategies to promote research and facilitate effective new concepts and theories to hands-on practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Scholarship of Practice is a model that blends education with practice, dynamically applying theoretical principles of occupational therapy learned in the classroom to their actual clinical practice. This framework is a planned, focused, practice-relevant way to educate students, build a tradition of independent scholarship, consult with community-based organizations, and contribute to best occupational therapy practice. Case studies show how partnerships and collaborative efforts can foster and apply important advances and rehabilitative strategies within communities. Examples of faculty-practitioner partnering at Duquesne University and the approach to scholarship at the University of Illinois are clearly discussed. This cutting-edge compilation of ideas and research is extensively referenced and filled with useful diagrams and tables.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Scholarship of Practice: Academic-Practice Collaborations for Promoting Occupational Therapy discusses:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e evidence-based scholarship\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e participatory action research\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e single case study designs\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e approaches that provide scientific evidence supporting OT services\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e how theory, models, or frames of reference are modified as a result of practice demands or expectations\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e best practices in education \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e continuum of care services\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the New Doors Model that provides occupation-based serviceswhile providing new opportunities for occupational therapists\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the Practice-Scholar Program at Duquesne University\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the Concerns Report Method\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e research on the outcomes of practice that support improved services\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e creative fieldwork education that engages students in the scholarship of practice\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e and more!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Scholarship of Practice: Academic-Practice Collaborations for Promoting Occupational Therapy makes important, enlightening reading for occupational therapists, OT educators and scholars, and graduate students preparing for advanced roles in OT.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54245313118552,"sku":"9780789026842","price":49.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780789026842.jpg?v=1779426915","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/scholarship-of-practice","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
