DISSERTATION
Examination at the end of : 2nd year Alloted hours: 200 COURSE DESCRIPTION The Dissertation is a major thesis undertaken by students. It is a Subject in its own right and must be satisfactorily completed in order for the students to graduate. As an alternative to this, the student can present a record of cases. The Dissertation requires the student: to identify a problem area of relevance to the theory and / or practice of Occupational therapy: to carry out an investigation of one aspect of that problem area: and, to present a clear report on the process and results of the project. Students are encouraged to identify problems of special interest to them that fall within the interest areas of Occupational therapy services, Students are encouraged to aim towards knowledge on the topic in the specified problem area. COURSE OBJECTIVES The objectives of this course are that at the end of the specials study will have: 2. Developed skills in critical thinking, research method (including review of literature, formulation of a problem for study, selection of a research strategy to investigate the problem,) implementation of that strategy), and the formal presentation of information related to the theory and or/ practice of physiotherapy and occupational therapy. 3. Gained an interest in research, writing, and publishing material, which contributes to the ongoing development of professional therapy both as a science and an art. In addition, the student will be able to fulfill (as measured by written, Oral & practical internal evaluation) the following objectives of the course. 1. Identify problems of relevance to the theory and/or practice of therapy in rehabilitation. 2. Undertake injury into a specific problem area. 3. Formally document the stages of such a study, including description of the problem, the process of investigation, the findings and their implications for therapy education, practice and research.
