A Critique of the Proposed National Education Policy Reform
Student participatory input to update pedagogy poster
1. • Online responds to logistical IP challenges,
both synchronous interaction & reflective
practices are important (Hanna et al., 2013;
Luke et al., 2009)
• Need for systems-based changes for care
coordination & comprehensive care.
Education must provide team oriented
knowledge, experience (Moyers & Metzler,
2014)
• Authentic learning pedagogy, support
collaborative skills and IP knowledge,
student control of own learning, online
collaboration (Gordon, Booth, Bywater, 2010)
• Sound pedagogical design needed for
online IPE, i.e.: Problem-Based Learning,
Collaborative Online (CSCL), Transformative
Learning (Luke et al., 2009)
• Community of Inquiry model (cognitive
presence, teaching, & social presence)
(Waterston, 2011)
• “Progressively more complex tasks” which
“reflect reality” (D’Eon, 2004, p. 604)

Participatory Action Research: Design & Participants
Participatory Action Research:
• Student as expert for own learning
• Student experience, interest for
online learning
• Student feedback current IPE
• Potential to add an IPE online course
Outcomes into Action:
• Considered limited online experience
• Like face-to-face (comfort level)
• Student generated themes can be
met online per research
Online Course (designed for Spring ‘16)
• Pedagogy: Authentic Learning Theory
• Graduate students (Admin, OT, Nursing)
