The medical community in Taiwan has widely adopted the concept of interprofessional practice over the past decade. Medical educators continued to promote interprofessional education (IPE) at medical schools and hospitals and developed various teaching activities. Recently, the world cafe has been regarded internationally as one of the novel ways to implement IPE and can provide opportunities for participants to discuss interprofessional topics thoroughly. However, the world cafe has not yet been published in the medical education literature in Taiwan. In this article, we would like to use a video scenario-based interprofessional world cafe to exemplify how educators could design a world cafe based on the seven principles and set a series of guiding questions to ensure the quality of IPE. Meanwhile, we collected qualitative and quantitative data to assess the trainees' learning outcomes and found their ability in team cooperation improved. By introducing the world cafe method into IPE, we hope to increase clinical trainees' level of understanding of team collaboration and eventually better the health outcomes of patients. |
