* Written by leading educators in the field • Covers lecturing, laboratory instruction, working with patients and families, delivering in-service to colleagues, and more • Clearly presented material on theory and application • Real-life, practical examples Ann Vendrely This new book covers a variety of educational issues that are pertinent to physical therapy education and practice. Respected contributing authors cover a diversity of issues in depth. Especially helpful are the annotated bibliography sections included at the end of each chapter, providing the reader with resources for further study. The authors aim to provide theoretical and practical knowledge of the educational process to physical therapists and physical therapist assistants. They hope to stimulate increased reflection about teaching and learning in the reader and to promote innovation in the education of students, patients, and communities that are based on sound educational theories and research. In my judgment, the book is especially targeted to physical therapy educators, including basic scientists who teach physical therapy students, clinical faculty, and community health professionals. Academic and clinical faculty will find the information helpful and encouraging. Unique features of this book include real-life scenarios and objectives that open each chapter, subheadings within the chapters that are easy to follow, and regular and annotated bibliographies that follow each chapter. Other strengths of this book are that each chapter can be read independently and, throughout the book, theory is substantiated with research and practical applications. This excellent, new resource for physical therapy educators and practitioners validates the importance of teaching and learning in the practice of physical therapy. Additionally, it provides both the theory and application of educational principles across the continuum of physical therapy practice. Beginning with the design of anacademic curriculum, progressing to the clinical teaching of entry-level students and advanced physical therapy practitioners, the book concludes with the education of patients, families, and whole communities. The material is presented clearly and completely so that readers may easily apply the concepts to their own practice setting.
