Using a solution focussed, task and goal oriented approach
Together these tutorials will provide therapists with the knowledge and skills needed for functional assessment of perceptual-motor development, and for collaborating with caregivers to select training goals and figure out how to integrate opportunities for training into the daily routine.
The DMT Course is an ongoing project. It is offered as a series of tutorials each with a video presentation, with a new tutorial offered every two weeks (DV). Below is a list of the planned tutorials with a link to the tuts that have been completed. |
