About this Unit
The aim of this unit is for students to apply their knowledge of professional theory, practice, research and evaluation skills to the investigation of an occupational therapy problem. Students will apply qualitative methods to investigate their chosen topic. Students develop an extensive knowledge of their chosen topic through literature review and will apply qualitative methods of data collection and analysis to their investigation. Ethical considerations in qualitative research will be analysed and applied to the investigation process. Students will complete a project report and present this at a professional standard student conference at the completion of the semester.
