  • Describe the Proposed Course/Change (attach any relevant documents)*

    A hybrid learning model for the MOT program at SSU is being designed to meet the needs of the generation of student learners, rural community, and boost student enrollment. Using best practice guidelines, discussions during faculty retreat and weekly meetings, and student feedback, the hybrid learning model is ideal for those students who desire a flexible learning environment. This change in the delivery provides an opportunity to update our curricular design, themes, and provide a clear rationale for the selection of course content and determine the scope and sequence of course content (AOTA, 2021). According to the U.S. Department of Education, hybrid learning is being recognized as the “fastest growing enrollment sections in higher education” (Mu et al., 2014, p. S52). Hybrid delivery allows students the opportunity to engage in higher learning using face-to-face and web-based instruction (Mu et al., 2014). A study by Mu et al. (2014) concludes similar outcomes on NBCOT practice exams, FWPE scores, and didactic coursework for traditional and hybrid programs, which indicates that the hybrid delivery model is an effective model to deliver occupational therapy education and training.   

    The rational for this particular course is to emphasis the OT Process with mental health disorders; application of theory to guide the OT process. The OT Process has been emphasized throughout the curriculum from first semester to last. 

  • Explain the rationale for this proposal (attach any relevant documents)*

    Conversion of the entire curriculum of the MOT program to hybrid. 

  • How will the proposed change affect other departments/programs/courses? (attach any relevant documents)*
