Abstract

See It & Believe It (Assessing Professional Behaviors & Clinical Reasoning with Video Assignments)

Olive Branch

Grace Johnson (UNMC), Megan Frazee (UNMC)

Professional behaviors and clinical reasoning skills are developed through repetition, modeling and multiple exposures. We developed video assignments in physical therapy education that allow students to integrate didactic knowledge into clinical cases. These assignments require students to demonstrate appropriate professional behaviors, psychomotor skills and clinical reasoning required for physical therapy patient management. For all video assignments, students are required to upload their videos into Canvas, view the work of their peers and provide constructive feedback. These video assignments allow faculty to assess professional behaviors and clinical reasoning of students and facilitate student interaction between sites.
