OT 220 - Analyzing Occupation

This course examines the theories underlying the use of occupation and purposeful activity, and the principles of activity analysis within the scope of occupational therapy. Students will identify, analyze, grade, adapt, and teach activities to enable purposeful, meaningful engagement, and will discuss the impact of sociocultural, socioeconomic, diversity, and lifestyle factors on health, well-being, and life satisfaction. The importance of balancing areas of occupation and the role of occupation in the promotion of health and prevention of disease, illness, and dysfunction will be discussed. Laboratory sessions compliment lecture content and enhance student learning through self-assessment, role-play, application, and analysis exercises.
