Face-to-Face and Online Interprofessional Immersive Experiences: A Qualitative Study

Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 04

Abstract

At the study site for this research, Interprofessional Education taught in distance learning courses can be challenging for faculty, impacting student engagement, motivation, and success. A qualitative case study was conducted with students to explore participant perceptions of their engagement following their participation in a virtual synchronous immersive experience. The study took place during four consecutive semesters beginning in the Spring 2019 term. Participants at the study site are learning in a healthcare strategic planning course class that focuses on interprofessional collaboration as a basis of health strategy. Data was collected using open-ended questionnaires to determine students’ online versus face-to-face immersive learning experiences. Findings suggest that due to their engagement experiences, participation in a virtual Immersive Learning Simulation experience may be a viable substitute for the traditional face-to-face learning experiences. After the Immersive Learning experience, participating students and the healthcare experts were asked to respond to a questionnaire to assess their perceptions of the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities offered by the online immersive event. This research study offers new information about students’ and healthcare experts’ perceptions of an online immersive IPE experience while identifying possible strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities.
