º£½ÇÉçÇø faculty, are you looking for a scholarly activity this year?

The º£½ÇÉçÇø Interprofessional Education (IPE) Committee’s first conference is all about facilitating interprofessional communication among faculty to increase the impact of our courses for students. We call on you to help your fellow faculty at º£½ÇÉçÇø understand more about collaboration with colleagues from other departments and disciplines.

The conference has a in-person and online attendance option

Creating an Interdisciplinary Course Offering/Activity: Tools, Resources, and Help:

Interdisciplinary faculty collaborations lead to better student outcomes by increasing cognitive abilities to think critically, to see the same material through different lenses, and to practice collaboration skills; however, the steps to create and deliver IPE can be daunting. This Faculty Learning Community will provide space and colleagues with evidence-based practice resources to help you design an interprofessional activity that will be used to increase active learning in your classroom. We will assist in goal setting, communication tactics, learning objectives and outcomes, and strategies to overcome barriers in collaboration.

• What group-level outcomes do you anticipate would result from this FLC?

Well-designed interprofessional activities/offerings to be used in courses

• What individual outcomes do you anticipate would result from this learning community (e.g., adoption of new teaching techniques, significantly revised course syllabi, submitted scholarly papers, etc.)?

We hope that faculty will adopt IPE and offer it for their students in their courses.Ìý Lots of research could be done regarding IPE as there is a paucity of research, especially in Hispanic- Serving, underfunded universities.

Purpose of the IPE Committee

to facilitate rich student learning opportunities that will lead to competencies for working in our inter-professional world and therefore help students become more competent and marketable as future employees through two main activities: 1) Cultivating partnerships among faculty from different Departments/ Programs/ Disciplines that create IPE opportunities for students, and 2) Develop and implement new activities that encourage IPE to flourish at º£½ÇÉçÇø by a)assessing current IPE activities at º£½ÇÉçÇø to understand frequency and quality and barriers that exist and, b) Addressing identified needs through activities such as forums for discussion and sharing, policy making, among others.
