E-mail: b.p.steward@uea.ac.uk sug: subj: Education, Occupational Therapy Trends Education, Non-Traditional Trends Access to Information Fraud Prevention and Control ab: Computer technologies will change both occupational therapy education and practice.

I suggest that early recognition of the costs as well as the benefits of computer-based education will be important to the development of international occupational therapy. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
