Creative Problem Solving in Occupational Therapy With Stories About Children

This interactive text/workbook uses a structured approach to creative problem-solving. Illustrated with examples and clinical stories from the authors' experience, it is designed to teach the reader skills to effectively solve therapy-related problems. A variety of learning tools include: reflective journal entries which relate learned material to personal experiences; thinking strategies and organizers, in order to help readers visualize the required mental strategies for problem-solving; mind mapping exercises that help release the free flow of ideas necessary in the data-gathering phase; crossword puzzles and word searches to give students practice using occupational therapy vocabulary; and case stories that illustrate how CPS can be used to master any challenging situation.
