Working Together Around the World: E-Collaborative Work Environments
Interprofessionalism, an emerging model and philosophy of multi-disciplinary and multi-agency working, has increasingly become an important means of cultivating joint endeavors across varied and diverse disciplinary and institutional settings.
In an effort to advance research in the area of educational technologies, IGI Global, an information science and technology publisher, has recently released, Interprofessional E-Learning and Collaborative Work: Practices and Technologies, edited by Adrian Bromage (Coventry University, UK); Lynn Clouder (Coventry University, UK); Jill Thistlethwaite (University of Warwick, UK); and Frances Gordon (SHU, UK).
This unique reference source focuses on how interprofessionalism can be promoted and enhanced at various levels in learners’ educational experiences, particularly with regard to e-learning and reusable learning objects, given the potential to cross boundaries of time, location and academic disciplines. Overall, it provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest case driven research findings to improve understanding of interprofessional possibilities through e-learning at the level of universities, networks and organizations, teams and work groups, information systems and at the level of individuals as actors in the networked environments.
Editor, Adrian Bromage, claims, “This book offers a broad and diverse picture of how e-learning is beginning to impact on interprofessional and interdisciplinary learning at the end of the first decade of the 21st Century… [and that] this will help individuals and teams to progress their existing practices to the next meaningful developmental step, given their own needs and local context, and contemporary pressures on higher education.”
