A public lecture organized by young teachers and students
We will hold a public lecture, which aims to report and promote the outcome of our international activities to students who did not directly participate in them, facilitate interactions with the staff of regional training facilities who support us in providing interprofessional training, and compare our educational contents with those of other universities belonging to the Japan Interprofessional Working and Education Network (JIPWEN) and with those of other non-JIPWEN universities.
Hosting an international symposium
We will invite experts on healthcare worker training from the WHO and other organizations to hold an international symposium, where discussions on interprofessional education, its problems, and future plans will be held between the university network in Japan and other participants. We will have our students participate in the management of the symposium so as to foster their scholastic competency, such as their knowledge, skills, and creative thinking.
Management of the student organization in preparation for All Together Better Health (ATBH) VI
Prior to participating in ATBH VI (held in 2012 in Kobe), an international conference on interprofessional education, the governing body and student organization will be formed to enrich our discussions in various fields. By having young teachers and students directly manage their organizations, we aim to provide interprofessional education based on objective evidence.
Conducting surveys at international conferences and within the WHO on the international situation concerning interprofessional education and participating in academic conferences
We, including young teachers and students, will visit international conferences and the WHO to conduct a survey on the international situation concerning interprofessional education, introduce the interprofessional education at our school, and assess the international role of our interprofessional education so as to improve our efforts.
A survey and analysis of undergraduates’ attitudes to interprofessional education
Following 2010, we will again survey undergraduates’ and graduates’ attitudes to interprofessional education so as to assess and improve the effect of our interprofessional education.
Hiring research assistants, forming a new young teachers’ organization, and devising an activity plan
We will hire new research assistants, form a young teachers’ committee organization, devise an activity plan, further specify our temporal activities, and conduct research on educational attitudes and engage in international activities with the cooperation of the administration staff and under the guidance of the Interprofessional Education Committee of Gunma University (IPEC-GU).
