Michael Lee, Instructor and Curriculum Coordinator, Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

As a believer in constructivism, Michael’s philosophy in teaching is to enable learners to construct and interpret their understanding of knowledge and reality through an active learning process. Michael enjoys teaching the psychosocial aspects of illness, especially on promoting recovery for people living with mental health concerns. He is also interested in clinical reasoning skills in occupational therapy practice, and program and outcome evaluations. He is especially passionate about interprofessional education and works collaboratively with other educators to develop interprofessional curricula.
