This course and call to action was great!!! She gave me ideas as far as practice areas that occupational therapist should work on. As a therapist, working with children and older adults, I found that this course was helpful to help me link the needs of people between those age groups. I usually get a lot of the teenagers in our clinic because I could connect with them. I believe all the research areas that she mentioned should be explored and better programs should be developed.

There is indeed limited research for the high school population as it relates to OT services; however, I felt that the research that was presented was not relevant to focusing on independent living/life skills and/or vocational skills that can be addressed at this age.

by

At the beginning, the presenter stated that some slides would appear to be basic, but that they are important for attendees to clearly understand. Throughtout the session, I repeatedly came to appreciate the critical importance of each slide. The reason for this as stated by the presenter, is the limited research findings to date for HS students with ASD. For those who may be new to working in a HS setting, this presentation offers many valuable perspectives to guide OT practice.

Language regarding "gender identity," well, everybody has a gender identity. So is it that autistic individuals are more likely to have gender dysphoria? Also, Autism Speaks has been denounced by a lot of autistic-led groups. Additionally, the autistic community is now advocating for identity-first language, not person-first. So I found this a little bit outdated at this time.

the info regarding the gender identity, students with AU wanting to drive/being able to drive, and that all the AU students reported sensory issues, were all interesting facts to me. Most of my former students did not readily admit that they had any sensory issues.

As a clinician who works with this age group, I feel it would be helpful for strategies to incorporate these principles in treatment given organizational and administrative constraints. For example, how to talk to administration about OT's role in these areas, when they are often being addressed in S&L and Counseling/Social Work. Also, strategies to support carryover of skills.

Having a hard time reconciling the course content with the role of occupational therapists as related service providers helping children access their educational program. The services endorsed like teaching life skills seem to exceed the scope of practice in a school setting.

She repeated herself a lot or stated the obvious... sounded a little stilted or rushed quite often. The discussion of gender identity doesn’t need to be assumed that all agree about the assumption that gender is fluid.
