Abstract

A self-directed, flexible CD-ROM / Workbook package was developed to supplement current teaching resources to enhance students’ learning within the vocational degree programme of Physiotherapy. This was developed with particular reference to neurological assessment and bridging the gap between University and practice-based learning, as well as improving the student’s preparation for module assessment. The package was piloted with both Full-time (n = 70) and Part-Time (n = 28) cohorts of students. Evaluation of the new teaching resource via a structured questionnaire proved very positive and demonstrated the benefit of the package. Areas were identified for improvement and how it could be further developed to meet the needs of a vocational degree programme.
