| dc.description.abstract | Picture OT is an open-access, visually oriented educational resource developed to support undergraduate occupational therapy (OT) education in South Africa. Recognising the complexity of OT theory and the importance of accessible, contextually relevant learning materials, the resource aims to make foundational theoretical and practice concepts easier to understand, engage with, and retain through concise, illustrated summaries. Developed collaboratively by recent OT graduates from six South African universities, the resource draws on contributors' undergraduate education, clinical experiences, and engagement with occupational therapy and occupational science literature. It brings together a curated selection of key concepts across 10 thematic areas, including humans as occupational beings, occupation and well-being, context, client factors, conceptual frameworks, the OT process, approaches, models, frames of reference, and professional reasoning. Each topic is presented through visually engaging infographics, supported by key references and, where appropriate, practical examples relevant to the South African context. The resource underwent a collaborative review process involving OT academics and practitioners from across South Africa to strengthen its accuracy and relevance. Designed to complement rather than replace institutional curricula, Picture OT encourages students to engage with foundational concepts alongside prescribed readings, current evidence, and developing professional reasoning. Freely available and intended as a living resource, Picture OT represents a collective contribution towards more accessible, inclusive, and contextually responsive OT education. It invites ongoing engagement, feedback, and collaboration to support its continued development. | |
