Developmental Disabilities
This significant volume provides broad coverage of the spectrum of problems confronted by patients with developmental disabilities and the many kinds of occupational therapy services these individuals need. Experts identify exemplary institutional and community service programs for treating patients with autism, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and mental retardation. A welcome contribution to the meager professional literature on the subject, Developmental Disabilities: A Handbook for Occupational Therapists will be an enormously helpful resource for therapists who work with both children and adults, ranging from mild to severe levels of impairment. You will learn how to establish a therapeutic environment for children with autism, develop a pre-vocational program in a pediatric skilled care facility, use qualitative research to obtain insight into the world of adults with significantly limiting cerebral palsy, and provide early intervention for your developmentally disabled patients.
Creative Problem Solving in Occupational Therapy
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.
Instructional Writing in English
The history of English writing is, to a considerable extent, the history of instructional writing in English. This volume is the first collection of papers to focus on instructional writing throughout the history of the language. Spanning a millennium of English texts, the materials studied represent procedural and behavioural discourse in a variety of genres. The primary texts, from AElfric s homilies to medieval cooking recipes to seventeenth-century American conduct literature to present-day language textbooks, display a variety of linguistic devices typical of instruction. The materials nonetheless differ with respect to the explicitness of their instructive purpose. Bringing together a broad range of instructional writing from the Old, Middle and Modern English periods, this collection celebrates the sixtieth birthday of Risto Hiltunen, who has successfully combined discourse-linguistic approaches with the history of English in his research, and inspired the colleagues and former students contributing to this volume."
