Task requirements
Formative Assignment – Presentation   This is a 5 minute presentation using PowerPoint to explore your scenario you have developed from your practice experience. The scenario is to describe an event where you worked with another practitioner from another occupation. It is suggested that you use a maximum of 2 PowerPoint slides to keep within the timeframe.   Feedback from students and the module leader will focus on your scenario, not on your presentation style. Feedback will be constructive and developmental, and will enable you to form your final, summative, written assignment.   Summative Assignment – 3000 words +/- 10%   Written Assignment. A critical reflection on your scenario developed from your practice experience. Your scenario will focus on working with another practitioner from a different occupation.   Guidance Notes: Your scenario:   This should be approximately 500 words.   The scenario needs to focus onone piece of work that you carried out working jointly with another practitioner. The aim is to explore your relationship with that practitioner. Please write in the first person (eg, ‘I’)   Useful questions to help you structure your description:   What happened? What was the situation? What was my role? What did I plan to achieve? What did I do? Who was present? What was their role? What did they do? How did it end?   Do not attempt to explore how you, or others, may have felt in your description.   Guidance Notes: Critical Reflection on the scenario   This should reflect (using the first person ‘I’) on what your scenario describes.   Useful questions to help you structure your critical reflection:   What was I thinking during the event, and after the event? What was I feeling during and after the event? What do I think about those who were present? How did others make me feel? How did the ending make me feel?   The essay needs consider the following themes and explore them only if they are relevant to your scenario (all may be relevant, or only some, depending on your experience):   Aims of interprofessional practice (and definition) The importance of supporting service users/patientsThe core values of interprofessional practice Relate clearly to your scenario   Professional accountability duty of careThe legislation framing practiceCompetencyCurrent issues affecting the workplace Relate clearly to your scenario     What can go wrong (serious case reviews)   Professional hierarchy and power Was this evident in your scenario?   Skills used:   CommunicationTeam workingEmotional competence and elegant challengingConfidence in sharing information Relate clearly to your scenario     What you have learned about working with another practitioner, and how you can use that learning to improve your practice in future.   Citations (In-text referencing): Your essay will not be a critical reflection unless you link your ideas to evidence (proof of reading) with in-text referencing. You will lose marks for ‘knowledge’ (a big part of what you are marked against) without providing in-text, and end of essay, references.   Word count – you can lose marks without providing a word count   Reference list on a separate page   Good luck. We will go through this together during the module and you can always email me if you get stuck or have questions.
