This innovative book presents a new, comprehensive overview of the range of approaches available to delivering practice-based learning in allied health professions.
With a strong educational focus, the book provides actionable strategies to deliver positive placement experiences for students, educators and universities alike. It features international contributions from both educators and practitioners, and brings together new models and ideas for the first time. These include evidence-informed evaluation on long-arm supervision, peer-assisted learning and technology-assisted placements, as well as simulated and inter-professional placements. Each chapter is also supported by case-studies which illustrate the dynamics of each model, alongside guidance to students in preparing themselves beforehand. Both practical and timely, the book recognises the critical role that practice educators play in planning, designing, supporting, delivering and assessing practice-based learning experiences—whether in clinical, research or leadership contexts.
Offering a key resource to shape high-quality, impactful placements in allied health education, it will be essential reading for educators, practitioners as well as students across the allied health professions.
