Educators' Institute Part 1: Towards a Better Understanding of Fieldwork in RT/TR
Session Description/Research Abstract
This session is the first of a three part series for the Educator’s Institute led by the ATRA Academic Action Task Force. The session will focus on the current state and possible future of fieldwork in RT/TR education. In this context, fieldwork is defined as: a learning opportunity for RT/TR students to develop practice competencies through hands-on experiences in applied RT/TR service settings. The current available information on RT/TR fieldwork will be presented, particularly the results from the 2022 ATRA RT/TR Fieldwork Education Survey. Laptops and access to curricular materials are encouraged for the session series.
