Interprofessional education is becoming more popular in higher education and service-learning has been a successful method to facilitate experiences that foster teamwork between professions. This report shares the results from an interprofessional service-learning project (ISLP) targeting students across eight disciplines (physician assistant, medicine, pharmacy, dietetic internship, physical therapy, master in health administration, nursing and biomedical science). The project used an existing resource, the South Carolina Area Health Education Consortium (SC-AHEC), to coordinate student learning across multiple regions and an established health promotion program curriculum for student outreach content. Participating students (n = 149) were evaluated to determine how the activity affected student appreciation and knowledge of their own and other professions, their interaction with other professional students, and student teamwork skills. Students found the most value in learning with students from other professions as part of the activity with lesser value placed on students increasing their knowledge about their profession's role in interprofessional work.
跨专业教育在高等教育中越来越受欢迎，而服务学习一直是一种成功的方法，可促进培养专业间团队合作的体验。本报告分享了一个跨专业服务学习项目（ISLP）的成果，该项目针对八个学科的学生（医师助理、医学、药学、饮食实习、物理治疗、卫生管理硕士、护理和生物医学科学）。该项目利用现有的资源——南卡罗来纳地区健康教育联盟（SC-AHEC），来协调多个地区的学生学习，并采用既定的健康促进项目课程作为学生外展内容。对参与的学生（n = 149）进行了评估，以确定该活动如何影响学生对自己和其他专业的理解与认识、他们与其他专业学生的互动以及学生的团队合作技能。学生们发现，作为活动的一部分，与其他专业的学生一起学习最有价值，而对于学生增加其对本专业在跨专业工作中作用的了解则不太重视。
