A Capstone in Education: Current Challenges For Occupational Therapist Clinicians Transitioning To Role Of Academician

  • Jacie Schneider

Student thesis: Doctoral ThesisDoctor of Philosophy

Abstract

The doctoral capstone I participated in for my entry-level Doctor of Occupational Therapy program was in a focus area of education with a mentor who was a professor in a master’s program. I supported my mentor in her role as a professor of a physical dysfunction intervention course and had the opportunity to present a module to students on wheelchair seating interventions. Using experience gained during my capstone as well as information learned during the review of literature, I created a guide for OTs interested in making the transition into academia to meet the capstone project requirement.
