PT/PTA Faculty webinar: Integrating PhysioU within a blended classroom course design for Applied Physical Therapy

Join our recording session of our PhysioU co-founder Dr. Michael Wong, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and our guest speaker Dr. Sam Allen, PT, DPT in an interactive discussion about Integrating PhysioU within a blended classroom course design for Applied Physical Therapy.

Transitioning from a clinical setting into a PT/PTA Program has some unique challenges. Which books to use, do you teach in a linear progression through the chapters of a text, does content within the texts reflect practices in the clinical setting? This webinar will discuss how one instructor utilized PhysioU in developing a competency-based course design for an Applied Physical Therapy Course. It will also discuss the use of Articulate’s Storyline 360 for developing course content that is hosted within a campus’ Learning Management System (LMS.

About our guest speaker:

Dr. Sam Allen PT, DPT is the PTA Program Director at South Arkansas Community College. He is a graduate of the University of Central Arkansas Doctor of Physical Therapy Program and has worked in various outpatient, hospital, home health, and pediatric settings. His company Allen Therapy Services provides occupational and physical therapy services to several school districts within Southcentral and Southeastern Arkansas.

User Perspective: How PhysioU helped my career?

A PhysioU user story

Anthony Rork, PT, DPT, CSCS 
Kaiser Permanente Colorado, Denver Region 

"PhysioU, formally known as Clinical Practice Recognition, has been very helpful shaping my career as a PT. It became especially helpful when I began working a few months following graduation from PT school. In my first position as a PT, I was either working alone as the only therapist in the clinic or without access to mentorship. Like all PTs, I was focused on getting my patients better. As a new graduate, I didn’t necessarily feel like I had a significant amount of skills or the knowledge to truly do so.   

I did have access to my materials from PT school, various journal articles, and textbooks.  I felt like all these resources were in a way “2 dimensional” in relation to my tendency to be a visual learner. CPR/PhysioU was a learning resource that seemed to come to life and acted like the mentor I needed. I not only enjoyed watching the videos for a better understanding on how to perform various manual techniques/patient exercises. But I also would follow up on the included journal articles about the material to better understand the evidence. 

I was fortunate to be exposed to CPR/PhysioU by Dr. Yung at a spinal exam/treatment course at MGH Hospital in Boston. Since my introduction to the app, I have been sure to mention it to my other PT classmates and coworkers as I make my PT career journey. Also from personal experience and those of my classmates, it can be helpful for PTs to continue learning when they are temporary sidelined from their career. Examples include: whether it’s an injury, waiting for a visa status to change, or just being between jobs. I currently continue to use it at my most recent position even though I am in a great mentoring environment. CPR/PhysioU is like that teacher you always wanted! Thanks!"
