Heather Croft (she/her)#UVic Co-op students have contributed to several recent research publications. Big shout outs to first author undergrads Andrew Rodd, who designed plasmids for cloning in B. subtilis at the University of Victoria, and to Colten R. Hodak, who studied the effect of antimicrobial growth promoters on chicken microbiota at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada!!!

A systematic review of Australian higher education students’ and graduates’ work readiness
Hiring new graduates is a cost-effective method of recruiting high-potential talent into organizations. Despite recent focus on graduate employability in the Australian higher education (HE) sector...
OT Jen BOops, I just got a bit excited by creativity and novelty and explored a little of a rabbit warren on #RepertoryGridTechnique
I love participating in a diverse #CommunityOfPractice for these opportunities to be challenged, inspired, affirmed...
Anyone else playing around student conceptions of #ExperientialLearning #WorkIntegratedLearning #CooperativeEducation #PracticeEducation or the like?
OT Jen B (she/her)Today's #AcWriMo productivity was all about being a good co-author by reviewing and editing 😀
☑️ Presenting on recent #OccupationalTherapy graduates' views of #WorkReadiness skills and #rural placement
☑️ Writing on meeting diverse learning needs in #SIM and #OnlineTeaching
Teamwork for the win, and what goes around comes around
A great #WorkIntegratedLearning community of practice meeting this morning getting excited about training clinical educators for roles as #SIM facilitators.
Found "Wearing hats and blending boundaries: harmonising professional identities for clinician simulation educators" in Advances in Simulation. I look forward to reading about identities as "clinician simulation educators" that may inform this work.

Wearing hats and blending boundaries: harmonising professional identities for clinician simulation educators - Advances in Simulation
Many clinicians working in healthcare simulation struggle with competing dual identities of clinician and educator, whilst those who harmonise these identities are observed to be highly effective teachers and clinicians. Professional identity formation (PIF) theories offer a conceptual framework for considering this dilemma. However, many clinician simulation educators lack practical guidance for translating these theories and are unable to develop or align their dual identities.An unusual experience involving the first author’s suspension of disbelief as a simulation facilitator sparked a novel reflection on his dual identity as a clinician and as a simulation educator. He re-framed his clinician and simulation ‘hats’ as cooperative and fluid rather than competing and compartmentalised. He recognised that these dual identities could flow between clinical and simulation environments through leaky ‘blended boundaries’ rather than being restricted by environmental demarcations.This personal story is shared and reflected upon to offer a practical ‘hats and boundaries’ model. Experimenting with the model in both clinical and simulation workplaces presents opportunities for PIF and alignment of dual identities. The model may help other clinician simulation educators navigate the complexities of merging their dual identities.
