Which models can be used as a clinical education model in occupational therapy? Introduction of the models: A scoping review study

Abstract

Clinical education is an important part of occupational therapists' curriculum. In the field of rehabilitation education, especially occupational therapy, there has not been a definite educational model. Thus, the present study aimed to identify the models with the potential to be used as clinical education models in occupational therapy clinical education settings. →What this article adds:Occupational therapists who work as educators should be trained to use the clinical education models to minimize the variation of teaching methods and promote the clinical education quality. Clinical education models can improve the quality of clinical education process, and different types of clinical education models (acting, acting/evaluating, evaluating) can be used in occupational therapy fieldwork education.
