Resumo: | Models of practice and theoretical frameworks that seek to deemphasize impairment and focus on the implications of societal attitudes, norms, and culture are significant and relevant to the practice of occupational therapy. As an underpinning of client-centered practice, there is a need to highlight and embrace the intersection of impairmentdeemphasizing theories and move from conceptual understanding to true application of those theoretical models in practice. This article describes the inclusion of the Salamander Workshop; an experiential learning activity designed to facilitate the development of students’ therapeutic self-awareness and initiate a starting point for incorporating social frameworks into authentic practice. Student reflections conceptualize the discussion about professional growth and development against the backdrop of disability experiences, social change, and empowerment. The article begins with an introduction to how the profession of occupational therapy and disability studies interconnect. This is followed by a description of both the occupational therapy education program where the experiential learning activity took place, and details of the workshop itself. The final two sections of the article articulate and discuss student reflections of the experiential learning exercise and conclude by framing the discussion within the larger context of occupational therapy pedagogy. The Salamander Workshop facilitated an opportunity for students to immerse themselves in the lived experience of others, while enhancing their own self-awareness, which in turn may translate to their growth and development as inclusive practitioners. |

Para aprofundamento na prática centrada no cliente, há uma necessidade de destacar e abordar a interseção de teorias que reduzem a ênfase na deficiência e passar da compreensão conceitual para a verdadeira aplicação desses modelos teóricos na prática. Este artigo descreve a inclusão da Workshop de Salamandra; uma atividade de aprendizagem experiencial projetada para facilitar o desenvolvimento da autoconsciência terapêutica dos estudantes e iniciar um ponto de partida para incorporar estruturas sociais no interior de práticas autênticas. As reflexões dos estudantes conceituam a discussão sobre crescimento e desenvolvimento profissional no contexto de experiências de deficiência, mudança social e empoderamento. O artigo inicia com uma introdução sobre como a profissão de terapia ocupacional e os estudos sobre deficiência se interligam. Isto é seguido por uma descrição do programa de educação em terapia ocupacional no qual a atividade de aprendizagem experiencial ocorreu e detalhes do próprio workshop. As duas seções finais do artigo articulam e discutem as reflexões dos estudantes sobre o exercício de aprendizagem experiencial e concluem analisando a discussão dentro do contexto mais amplo da pedagogia da terapia ocupacional. O Workshop Salamandra facilitou uma oportunidade para os estudantes mergulharem na experiência vivida pelos outros, ao mesmo tempo em que aprimoraram sua própria autoconsciência, o que, por sua vez, pode se traduzir em seu crescimento e desenvolvimento como profissionais inclusivos.Brazilian Journal of Occupational TherapyCuadernos Brasilenos de Terapia OcupacionalCadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional2022-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/article/view/3312Brazilian Journal of Occupational Therapy; Vol. 30 (2022); e3312Cuadernos Brasilenos de Terapia Ocupacional; Vol. 30 (2022); e3312Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional; v. 30 (2022); e33122526-8910reponame:Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacionalinstname:Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR-DTO)instacron:UFSCARenghttps://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/article/view/3312/3701Copyright (c) 2022 Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacionalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKarp, PamelaBlock, Pamela2022-10-05T12:00:20Zoai:ojs.www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br:article/3312Revistahttp://www.cadernosdeterapiaocupacional.ufscar.br/index.php/cadernos/indexPUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadto@ufscar.br||cadto@ufscar.br2526-89102526-8910opendoar:2022-10-05T12:00:20Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional - Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR-DTO)false |
