Using AI to Elevate Your OT Interventions
Applications Across Various Areas of OT Practice
Coming soon!
Do you ever feel like you are spending more time creating materials or searching for intervention ideas than actually delivering therapy? As demands on school-based OT practitioners continue to grow, many practitioners are looking for efficient, ethical ways to enhance their interventions while maintaining clinical reasoning and professional oversight. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are emerging as powerful supports when used thoughtfully and responsibly.
In this seminar, Michelle will explore how AI can be leveraged as a practical tool across multiple areas of occupational therapy practice. You will learn ethical guidelines and a human-centered framework for AI use, along with strategies for applying AI to MTSS initiatives, OT intervention, communication support, as well as finding and understanding research literature. Michelle will demonstrate how AI can help generate intervention materials, such as checklists, social stories, visual schedules, gamification of tasks, and executive function supports.
Through multiple case vignettes spanning mental health, written expression, learning readiness (self-regulation), access to school environments, transition, and social participation and engagement, you will see how AI can streamline preparation, increase efficiency, and expand intervention possibilities. The session will also address how to critically review and refine AI-generated content for accuracy, bias, and alignment with evidence-based practice.
Leave this course with practical strategies, ethical safeguards, and innovative ideas you can apply immediately to elevate your OT interventions using AI. Closed Captioned in English.
