I became a Professor Emeritus after serving 29 years as a recreational therapy faculty member at Indiana University. I'm a long-time Hoosier, having grown up in Hanover, Indiana. My RT practitioner work was in psych/mental health. After completing my Ph.D. at the University of Illinois, my first faculty position was at the University of North Texas. RT has been a wonderful profession for me as I have had the opportunity to serve as an author and national leader.

Counts of Use of RTV Videos Published

The Indiana University Library has released counts for the use of the Recreation Therapy Videos from June, 2009, through September, 2010.

Not too surprising was that the introduction to RT video, “To Serve a Purpose,” was the most viewed (550 times). Other titles with high counts were: “Therapeutic Recreation History: The Modern Era” (539), “Transfer Techniques” (509) and “Effective Listening” (509). It was interesting to me that perhaps the most complete video, “History of Therapeutic Recreation, Parts I, II, and III,” had a count of only 161.

Of course, I personally would have liked to have seen a higher count for "Models of Practice: The Health Protection/Health Promotion Model." But that's just me!

Below are the counts on the streaming of the 23 RTV Videos.
