OTH 202 - Occupation and Adaptation


Semester Hours: 2
This first-semester course reviews the concept of occupation or meaningful and purposeful activities from the perspective of the occupation-based model of the Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO). Occupational performance throughout the lifespan is examined by exploring areas of occupation and occupational roles in alignment with the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework. Students will develop skills for activity gradation and completion of a task analysis. Laboratory sessions emphasize the tools unique to occupational therapy, the therapeutic use of occupations, and the selection of a variety of therapeutic media used across the lifespan.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
Matriculation in the Occupational Therapy Program  and completion of HPR 130 - Orientation to Occupational Therapy: The Profession and Practice .
