| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @BillWongOT @MMShiells it's important for students to disclose- it can cause some negativity late in placement if educator hasn't been able to make changes #OTalk |
| Rachael @RachaelD_OT @MMShiells Effective communication across the board. We all need to be singing from the same hymn sheet, so to speak #OTalk |
| Rachel Booth @OT_rach Disclosure is always personal choice I've had both positive and negatives experiences - but in my view it's better to discuss. #OTalk https://t.co/nyUWSIsLrC |

| Kerry Pace @DiverseLearners RT @OTalk_: Question 1... #OTalk https://t.co/DbNySQVRXc |
| Jackie P @ot_jackiep I think also understanding as an educator that your student doesn't expect you to know all and being honest about your strengths, etc.#OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @theRCOT: If you're interested in practice education - make sure you follow #OTalk over the next hour! RCOT's @MMShiells is hosting! |
| Samantha Turner @mampy1985 @SetG75 Absolutely agree #OTalk |
| Maureen Shiells @MMShiells Thanks Jackie and yes, I agree #Otalk https://t.co/O6jWAmJz2L |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OT_rach Even if it is relatively public knowledge in some instances, you are still in control of what to disclose. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360 We may need to think wider about placement experiences in a wider range of area #otalk iPhoneX https://t.co/pLJ9rRf8cV |

| Maureen Shiells @MMShiells @dawntravill it's a great start but you can't do it all yourself - quality supervision is key #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @MMShiells This is especially if they know they have students with disabilities coming their way. #otalk |
| Shelley Faulkner OT @shelleyamybeth @MMShiells Also vital that the PE attends any training from the Uni, understands relevant documentation & recognises the student is learning! #OTalk |

| Dr Sally Beckwith @SallyBeckwithOT @OT_Bret @sherlynmelody @MMShiells Let's challenge the idea that teaching or learning styles are fixed, they are sensitive to context placement is different to Uni #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @MMShiells Sometimes finding placement options for students with disabilities are difficult. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360 Collaboration is crucial each person brings different things #otalk https://t.co/Ias4Foq88N |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mampy1985 @MMShiells Mutual respect is definitely important as a student can bring fresh eyes &I shouldn't be made to feel unheard #OTalk |

| Dr Stephanie Tempest @SetG75 Agree this is a real challenge but with 37,000 registered UK OTs, and only 5500 students, why are placements diff to find? #OTalk https://t.co/2YJnnpigRC |
| Rachel Booth @OT_rach RT @MMShiells: @dawntravill it's a great start but you can't do it all yourself - quality supervision is key #OTalk |
| Kerry Pace @DiverseLearners @xJessicaKate18x @BillWongOT @MMShiells Always recommend #disclosure but staff and students we support report placement allowing reasonable adjustments v hit and miss #OTalk |
| Samantha Turner @mampy1985 @RRule3 @MMShiells Clear expectations from your HEI assists this process aswell as clear expectations from the educator #OTalk |

| Maureen Shiells @MMShiells Q.2 How can we improve the consistency in the quality of the student experience? #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks Completely agree, it can go either way when you disclous & that in itself is an extra pressure on student in educ/stud relationship #OTalk https://t.co/pxARSaCibp |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @SallyBeckwithOT @OT_Bret @sherlynmelody @MMShiells Definitely! I encourage students to review their learning style at the end of placement, it's always changed! #otalk |
| Maureen Shiells @MMShiells @shelleyamybeth agree that these housekeeping bits are essential in preparation for a good experience #OTalk |

| Dr Stephanie Tempest @SetG75 RT @alisonfwarren: Agree motivation to work together important and mutual respect vital #OTalk https://t.co/qLTXZxAsEH |
| Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360 Honest and open communication. Put everything on the table then there can be no misunderstanding #otalk https://t.co/47EVnryEaj |
| Lauren @Lauren_OT @MMShiells HEI perspective, would be useful for PE to know about what students have been learning at uni to link theory to practice #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @DiverseLearners @BillWongOT @MMShiells My only exp of adjst came after student didn't disclose until 2/52 prior to end of placement! We could have done so much more #Otalk |
| Molly Harris @mollharrisOT @MMShiells Honesty and feeling comfortable to ask for help and guidance #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SetG75 In US is also a problem. From my perspective, some workplaces are NOT conducive in having students. #otalk |
| Royal College of Occupational Therapists @theRCOT RT @MMShiells: Q.2 How can we improve the consistency in the quality of the student experience? #OTalk |
 | Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @MicheleMorganOT @BillWongOT @OTalk_ I'm definitely going to ask my next student about current textbooks and hopefully borrow some... great idea thanks! #otalk |

 | Catherine Evans @catevans10 @MMShiells Clear communication on all sides is key! Understanding of expectations (students & educators), clear objectives, & preparation #OTalk |
| ᏕᏂᏋᏒLᎩᏁ 🇯🇲🇬🇧💚 @sherlynmelody @MMShiells This was important to me in placement as the OT could teach me in the right way. I am practical person pragmatic #otalk |
 | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT back home in time to catch #otalk!! |
| Shelley Faulkner OT @shelleyamybeth @AngelaOTstudent @MMShiells If they can't access the computers, printers, scanners etc ASAP they aren't able to carry out expectations & don't feel valued. #OTalk |
| Samantha Turner @mampy1985 @OT_Bret @OT_JackieP Also it is key for students to ask lots of questions...it is not a weakness to not know- students are on placement to learn :-) #OTalk |
| Rachel Booth @OT_rach @OTontheTracks Have any students out there got examples of where an education has disclosed a disability to them? How was that? #otalk |
| Rachael @RachaelD_OT Educators and students discussing their strengths, weaknesses & also their own expectations can help to build a relationship #OTalk |
| Maureen Shiells @MMShiells @SallyBeckwithOT @OT_Bret @sherlynmelody I happen to agree with this concept because there is no one-size fits all style I think #OTalk |
| Kerry Pace @DiverseLearners @OT_rach We support staff and students to disclose but like Rachel they report v diff experiences re having reasonable adjustments "allowed" #Otalk |
| Dr Stephanie Tempest @SetG75 RT @OT_rach: Yes I have learnt so much from students it's a two way street! #otalk https://t.co/0sTz1GHI1k |
| Lauren @Lauren_OT @MMShiells Also student and PPE having allocated person at HEI from start of placement in case of any issues. #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @SallyBeckwithOT @BillWongOT @OT_Bret @sherlynmelody @MMShiells As therapists we adapt our approaches to patients, makes perfect sense to do this with students too #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SetG75 Like in my nursing home setting, it will be difficult for students if they walk into a building in preparing for survey. #otalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @MMShiells: Q.2 How can we improve the consistency in the quality of the student experience? #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @MMShiells @sherlynmelody As we all learn differently we can't assume a particular method. It could hinder someone's development because of something simple #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360 It's horrible when an educators says I didn't want a students #otalk https://t.co/54cAGk7FBC |
