Overview
This unit will build on knowledge and skills gained in OCCT11002 (Introduction to Occupational Therapy Theory and Practice) through exploration of occupational therapy assessment and intervention processes involving activity and occupation as core concepts. You will become familiar with a range of common meaningful occupations and learn how to undertake an occupational therapy activity analysis. Concepts of participation limitations at the person level will be introduced. You will engage in a variety of workshop activities that link key theoretical concepts to occupational therapy practice contexts for activity analysis. You will explore ways of grading and adapting activities to enable client participation.

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses
Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.
Feedback from SUTE Unit Comments Report T2, 2025 Informal student feedback Unit coordinator reflection
Students noted that clearer assessment instructions were needed for assessment 2 as they were occasionally unsure about exactly what was expected.
It is recommended that the unit coordinator reviews and edits the task description and rubric for assessment 2 to improve clarity of expectation prior to the unit offering in Term 2, 2026.
Feedback from SUTE Unit Comments Report - T2, 2025
Ten percent of student respondents expressed frustration arising from intermittent technology challenges. Students noted occasions where intercampus connections were disrupted, resulting in each campus working independently - creating concern about inconsistent learning experiences between campuses.
It is recommended that the unit coordinator and the CB84 academic team maintain active collaboration with the Teaching Technology and IT teams to pursue ongoing improvements to intercampus ISL connectivity, ensuring that the learning experience remains as consistent and equitable as possible across campuses.
