Associate professor Kathleen Buccieri, director of clinical education in the Rochester Center's physical therapy department, recently participated in a platform presentation at the American Physical Therapy Association's Educational Leadership Conference, October 2-4 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Professor Buccieri and her co-investigators -- Renee Brown, Belmont University (Nashville, Tennessee) and Shauna Malta, Utica College -- presented research on developing a model tool for PT programs to use in the faculty evaluation of directors of clinical education. The model tool was well received.
Look for more information in the winter 2009 Journal of Physical Therapy Education, when the research article, "Evaluating the Director of Clinical Education in Physical Therapy: Developing a Tool for Center Coordinator of Clinical Education and Clinical Instructor Feedback," is published.
