Description

ON-DEMAND WEBINAR PURCHASE

Presented by: Ronald Lee Kirby, MD and Cher Smith BScOT, MSc (Kinesiology) 

Occupational therapists are most effective at teaching wheelchair users and their care partners on wheelchair skills when they utilize the best available evidence on motor skills learning (e.g., Keeler et al., 2019 ; Magill et al., 2021).

This webinar will provide an evidence-based, but clinician-friendly, overview of motor skills learning theory and principles. Although the example of wheelchair skills training will be used to illustrate these principles, this approach is applicable to learning any motor skill.

After taking part in this webinar, participants will be able to: 

  1. Describe how motor skills learning theory contributes to the Wheelchair Skills Program.
  2. List 5 evidence-based and clinically-relevant principles of motor skills learning.
  3. Provide an example of each of these principles from their own clinical setting.
