Interprofessional Graphic Novel Project
Interested in a fun and different interprofessional opportunity? Looking for students across professions to work on creating a graphic (cartoon) book about students', faculty, providers' and patients' experience working with an interprofessional healthcare team to produce a user friendly, easy to engage with resource for those interested in learning more about interprofessional collaborative learning and practice. We are collecting stories of people's positive, negative, funny, sad and neutral moments of being part of or treated by an interprofessional team. Please join us for sharing stories, conversation, and creating some engaging images to illustrate the aha moments and pitfalls of interprofessional collaboration.
