Master adaptive learning has been adopted as a conceptual underpinning for professional development and continuous lifelong learning. The ability to adapt expertise to routine and uncommon situation is essential in all the health professions. Master adaptive learning encourages agility and creativity and provides ways to do this across the continuum of learning and clinical situations. To date, however, the concepts and strategies associated with master adaptive learning have been applied primarily at the level of individual learner.

This seminar explores how elements critical in developing “master adaptive learners” have value and application to interprofessional education and collaborative practice. Participants will discuss its role in how we understand and facilitate learning in teams. The ability to reframe problems and propose novel solutions and innovation is needed now more than ever. Through interactive dialogue, we hope to stimulate a knowledge community developing insights into teaching and learning strategies that can be used in developing master adaptive teams in IPECP.

After attending this seminar, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe elements of the master adaptive learner applied to learners and team learner development in the professions.
  2. Experiment with teaching and learning strategies that can facilitate adaptable interprofessional learner teams.
  3. Generate 2-3 exercises for master adaptive learning in IPE.


Active Learning Strategies

Following a brief overview of key concepts and framework for fostering the development of the master adaptive learners, participants will move into facilitated small groups using Zoom break out rooms. Panelists will guide participants through a fishbowl session, discussing and then experimenting with the application of master adaptive learner concepts and techniques to interprofessional teams. Each small group will generate a master adaptive learning exercise for team development and practice. Small groups will record the main points of their conversations on zoom and do a brief report-out. Ultimately these documents will be uploaded to a Google doc and distributed back to those participants who desire the information.

 

Assessment

Each participant will record his/her understanding of the concept of master adaptive learners at the beginning of the session and to describe the extent to which the session helped them to recognize and share what they perceive as currently present in IPECP. Additionally, throughout and prior to the end of the session, participants will be encouraged to use the chat feature within Zoom. At the end of the session, participants will be asked to reflect on the most important point they gained from the session.
