The CAOT conference in Victoria has come and gone. It was a profound experience to network with other O.T.’s across Canada including students and recent grads, and to attend several excellent presentations and extended discussions.
One of the highlights for us was the opportunity to present our poster “A blog as a strategy to support fieldwork educators”. In a nutshell, the poster provided an overview of the blog and the results of an evaluation that was done to capture its usefulness and to guide future direction. Some of you may have participated in this evaluation by responding to an email request inviting feedback about the blog in 2011. Others may have completed a survey that was sent out to educators following Basic and Intermediate II 2012/2013. Thanks to all of you who informed this process. For those of you who have not had an opportunity to provide feedback, we would love to hear from you!
Overall, we engaged in a lot of positive discussion about the blog with those who attended the poster presentation. There was a variety of interest from students, university educators, and “soon to be” or current fieldwork educators.
Looking ahead with continuing the blog, we have already integrated some of our “lessons learned”; we are always learningJ. For those of you who are squinting to read the minuscule print on this poster, and are interested in more details, please give us a shout.
