Bachelors and Masters Assessment Task 2 – Recorded PowerPoint
Task Instructions
Working individually, you are required to produce a recorded PowerPoint presentation:
You must consider the scenario provided involving a young child and his/her family. You must use this information to construct a recorded PowerPoint presentation that includes a video thumbnail of you. The presentation must be appropriate for broadcast to families of children.
Time limit: 15 minutes (Minimum 6 slides but no maximum limit applies)
Weighting: 35%
- Preparation
- Consider the scenario described on the next page. Think about:
- The features of the context for the client and his family
- The child’s occupational interests
- Typical developmental milestones for a child of this age
- Typical occupations a child of this age would engage in (consider play, learning, self-care, sleep and rest, social occupations, as well as the occupations of the family that he would be drawn into).
- The possible impact of the child’s condition on both his development and his engagement in occupation
- How delays in one area of development might limit engagement in occupation, which in turn could impact on development in other areas
- Consider the nature of occupations that a child of this age would typically engage in, and how those occupations would facilitate all aspects of their development. In particular, consider the impact on fine motor developmental milestones
- Think about how you, as an occupational therapist, could use the child’s occupational interests to enhance development of his fine motor skills
- Understand how attainment of developmental milestones in fine motor development could contribute to the attainment of the occupational goals described in the scenario
- Become familiar with the recorded PowerPoint function as demonstrated in class
