remote case study

In your remote case study you will present a written account on the remote support you have provided your client, including discussion of relevant scientific literature. The total word limit, excluding references and appendices, should not exceed 2500 words (i.e for sections 1-5).The Case Study must include the following:

1. Introduction to the client

2. Presentation of a needs analysis

3. Plan and implementation of intervention

4. Evaluation of intervention

5. Self-evaluation reflection

6. References and Appendices

1. Introduction to the client

Provide a brief description of the client(s) background and what the client(s) is/are trying to achieve (½ page maximum). To assure client confidentiality, please do not include the client’s name in the case study.

2. Presentation of a needs analysis

This should include a detailed description of the process of collecting information about the client in order to make decisions on which intervention is most appropriate. This should include how you sought and elicited the information from the client (e.g. initial communications and discussions, observations, follow-up discussions, performance profile, structured interview, remote tests and assessments or questionnaires). The needs analysis must be supported with scientific references. Analysis of the data obtained from the needs analysis must be clearly presented.

3. Plan and implementation of remote intervention

This section should include information and a rationale regarding the choice of remote intervention. What interventions did you choose, and why? How did you implement the intervention, i.e. what techniques did you use, and why? Again, all decisions made must be discussed in relation to the scientific literature.

4. Evaluation of the remote intervention

How did the client respond? Did the intervention work? How do you know? This will include analysis of any pre- and post-intervention data you have collected that will allow you to assess the success of the intervention.

Discuss why the intervention may have/have not worked. Again, use reference to the scientific literature as appropriate. If you had similar case in the future, what might you do differently?

5. Self-Evaluation Reflection

Reflect on what you have learned about your own ability to work with clients. What skills have improved? What skills need more work? How will you attempt to gain experiences that will improve the skills that need more work?

6. References and Appendices

Include a bibliographic list of cited references, and other pertinent and relevant paperwork related to your applied work (e.g. detailed results from the needs analysis, student-client contract).
