Title

Observer

Duties Performed

I mainly observed the therapist, but I would get some tools, games, or other equipment for the therapists. I would also play games or catch with the clients.

Best Aspect

The diversity of ages of people who come for occupational therapy, and the fact that there are so many different diagnoses. They get young children up to elderly and they even have pool therapy.

Jane Palmer ’10 Psychology

Hometown

Bronx, N.Y.

Field Period Site

Keuka College TeamWorks! Adventure Program

Field Period Location

Keuka Park, N.Y.

Title

Assessment Coordinator

Duties Performed

Some of the skills I gained during this Field Period included: creating spreadsheets, creating/administering surveys for various departments and groups, scanning, data retrieval, and working with members of other departments to reach a common goal.

Best Aspect

It was a great opportunity for me to conduct a Field Period with TeamWorks! I became more familiar with Microsoft Word and Excel, creating surveys on Class Climate, scanning/data retrieval, and so much more. Being computer savvy is just one of the many things that employers require of their employees, and having this opportunity puts me that much ahead of the competition.
