Interactive Learning for Functional Cognition: Translating Theory to Practice with Multimedia E-Learning Modules
Functional cognition is a crucial aspect of occupational therapy practice, yet there is a lack of open-access, self-directed learning resources for occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) and students to enhance their knowledge in this area. This article introduces a series of multimedia e-learning modules designed to support the understanding and application of occupational therapy strategies grounded in theory to address functional cognition. It discusses theoretical foundations, instructional design principles, and case-based applications incorporated into the modules. These flexible and interactive e-learning tools offer an innovative solution for bridging the gap between theory and practice in functional cognition.
