Towards a model of occupational performance: Model development
نویسندگان
چکیده
The primary purpose of the undergraduate occupational therapy curriculum at The University of Sydney is to prepare students for the academic, practical and ethical demands of occupational therapy practice (School of Occupational Therapy, 1986). As part of a former College of Advanced Education, Cumberland College of Health Sciences (CCHS), the School of Occupational Therapy was required by the Higher Education Board to undergo major curriculum reviews every ,five years. The goal of these reviews was to enhance quality teaching and learning, promote academic standards expected of baccalaureate degrees and to maintain curriculum relevance. In response to these curriculum reviews, the undergraduate curriculum has undergone considerable change and refinement (School of Occupational Therapy, 1975; School of Occupational Therapy, 1986).
