A new human physiology course was developed for occupational therapy doctoral students, aligning with constructivist learning principles. Student feedback guided course improvements for future health profession education programs.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Physiology Education
  • Occupational Therapy

Background:

  • Occupational therapy doctoral programs require specialized medical physiology knowledge.
  • A constructivist approach aligns with the occupational therapy curriculum philosophy.
  • Faculty need effective models for designing courses for diverse health profession students.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and implement a custom medical physiology course for occupational therapy doctoral students.
  • To evaluate student perceptions of pedagogical effectiveness in the new course.
  • To provide a model for developing health professions education courses.

Main Methods:

  • Course design based on constructivist principles.
  • Implementation for first- and second-year occupational therapy doctoral students (Fall/Spring 2015/2016).

  • Anonymous assessment tools and a summative survey with comments for evaluation.

    • Main Results:

    • Students provided feedback on pedagogical effectiveness and course design.
    • Suggestions for course improvement were generated from student feedback.
    • The course development process highlighted the need for tailored physiology education.

    Conclusions:

    • The designed medical physiology course provides a model for health professions education.
    • Student feedback is crucial for refining course content and delivery.
    • Further evaluation of long-term career impact is recommended but challenging to obtain.
