My 11 yo son just asked me if I knew what the 4th Geneva convention said…. Apparently he’s gonna tell his teacher he can’t get punished as part of a group. It’s against the Geneva convention.

Does anyone else watch Queer Eye and imagine what they would say to you about your wardrobe, bathroom routine, or your trauma?

Is there a big demand for qualified instructors? Here in the US it’s hard to find PhDs and qualified OTDs to teach.

How’s the OT academic job market in Scotland? Or in the UK in general? Asking for a friend.

I’m really enjoying Interior Chinatown. Except it makes me want to eat Chinese food.

My students have a really hard time understanding the value of theory and operational models. Any tips?

I’ve got an intervention study in the works for adults with ADHD. I’m very excited

Kinda! But the PEO gives operational guidance to OT practitioners for treatment and interventions.

how do you define action in this?

Tim Dionne @timotphd.bsky.social · 13/11/2024

Its an executive function strategy - gotta double check if you're doing it right - unfortunately not a smooth one.

follow up: not eliminate - mitigate.

So if the person isn't able to be changed (which is true in most cases) then the other 2 need to be changed to eliminate the disability.

Yeah - needing glasses is a disability that's easily fixed. In OT we have a theory that says a disability is an interaction of the environment, the person, and their activity. tinyurl.com/yb2a36x8 So glasses is modification of the environment matching the person (low vision) and task (seeing).

When I get tenure (cough) - I plan on wearing jeans and vintage band tees. Maybe a flannel or corduroy jacket to throw on incase an admin is going to see me.

Trying out Bluesky - I never got into to twitter. So we'll see how this goes.
