Agile Competency-Based Learning for Individuals and Teams
Europe's aging population with increasing multimorbidity requires a workforce skilled in managing chronic diseases. To meet this need, health professions education must emphasize lifelong and interprofessional learning, using innovative pedagogies and technologies. However, current skills labs and workplaces often lack the conditions needed for deliberate practice and effective interprofessional training.
A strategic partnership aims to address this by developing simulation scenarios for individual and collaborative skills training in home and palliative care. This includes a mobile app for narrative feedback and a shared dashboard for debriefing interprofessional teams. The tools and methods will be tested with health profession students in Germany and Sweden across various fields, including medicine, nursing, occupational therapy, and pharmacy.
Key outcomes will include training scenarios, learning materials, a feedback app with AI integration, a debriefing dashboard, and scholarly publications. These innovations will enhance learning, encouraging deliberate practice and collaboration in team-based care, moving away from single-professional approaches.
