PURPOSE The Blog assignment provides an opportunity to reflect on
the application of IPE competencies and sub-competencies to strengthen
discipline-specific interdisciplinary practice while contributing to, and
benefiting from, a collaborative learning community. Students should have a
better understanding of the various practice specialties within a discipline as
well as the expertise various disciplines contribute to the interprofessional
healthcare team.
REQUIREMENTS 1. Students will create an individual Blog by responding
to each of the prompts in the course during the academic week (Monday to
Sunday). You are encouraged to review the work of your peers throughout the
week. 2. You will use the following headings as you develop and
organize your content in the Blog: a. Title b. (List the First Competency Chosen) i. (List
the first Sub-Competency Chosen)
ii. (List
the second Sub-Competency Chosen)
c. (List the Second Competency Chosen)
i. (List
the first Sub-Competency Chosen)
ii. (List
the second Sub-Competency Chosen)
d. (List the first strategy to Improve IPE KSAs)
e. (List the second strategy to improve IPE KSAs)
f. (List the third strategy to improve IPE KSAs)
g. Conclusion
h. References
3. Review the grading rubric carefully prior to beginning
to work, and frequently throughout the process, to be sure you are meeting all
expectations. If you have questions or are unsure about anything, please
contact your course faculty member. 4. Each required area of the Blog should be adequately
developed, fully address each of the required elements, and include support for
the information provided in the form of citations with matching references as
necessary to prevent plagiarism. You will place all references for the Blog at
the end of all Blog entries (one reference page at the end of the Blog). 5. The reference list should include the Internet sources
provided and discussed within the Blog and any other sources to prevent
plagiarism. 6. Make the information educational, engaging, and
professional. Use this as an opportunity to learn while you create the Blog and
to teach your peers about the IPE competencies and sub-competencies you are
exploring. You will learn from your peers as you peer-review their work next
week. 7. Professional grammar, mechanics, and APA style are
expected throughout the information presented. Maintain a professional and
academic tone. 8. The Blog must address (in each area specified below):
a. Title (followed by the introduction content).
b. (List the First Competency Chosen): Discuss your
discipline, including your practice area if you are currently practicing or
your desired practice area if you aren’t currently practicing, in relation to an
IPE competency. Share how you meet each competency or how you anticipate
meeting each competency in your professional practice. What are the challenges
to meeting each of the competencies and what do you believe needs to happen
within your healthcare setting to overcome these barriers? What stakeholders need
to become involved and how could you engage them to improve these competencies?
Include a link to a credible Internet source that relates to the IPE competency
you have identified (one source for each competency). This source should help
others learn more about the competency, support your approach to meeting the
competency, or support the value of the competency. Provide an overview of each
source and how it relates to the competency. i. (List
the first Sub-Competency Chosen): Identify two sub-competencies for the IPE
competency chosen, discuss the value of each sub-competency to your practice
and your discipline, and provide examples of how you will promote the
sub-competencies in future practice. Use real-world examples to demonstrate how
the sub-competency benefits your practice and your discipline. One
sub-competency should be one you will be able to easily meet in your practice
and the other should be the one you feel you will struggle most with in your
practice. ii. (List
the second Sub-Competency Chosen): Identify two sub-competencies for the IPE
competency chosen, discuss the value of each sub-competency to your practice
and your discipline, and provide examples of how you will promote the
sub-competencies in future practice. Use real-world examples to demonstrate how
the sub-competency benefits your practice and your discipline. One
sub-competency should be one you will be able to easily meet in your practice
and the other should be the one you feel you will struggle most with in your
practice. c. (List the Second Competency Chosen): Discuss your
discipline, including your practice area if you are currently practicing or
your desired practice area if you aren’t currently practicing, in relation to an
IPE competency. Share how you meet each competency or how you anticipate
meeting each competency in your professional practice. What are the challenges
to meeting each of the competencies and what do you believe needs to happen
within your healthcare setting to overcome these barriers? What stakeholders
need to become involved and how could you engage them to improve these
competencies? Include a link to a credible Internet source that relates to the
IPE competency you have identified (one source for each competency). This
source should help others learn more about the competency, support your
approach to meeting the competency, or support the value of the competency.
Provide an overview of each source and how it relates to the competency.
i. (List
the first Sub-Competency Chosen): Identify two sub-competencies for the IPE
competency chosen, discuss the value of each sub-competency to your practice
and your discipline, and provide examples of how you will promote the
sub-competencies in future practice. Use real-world examples to demonstrate how
the sub-competency benefits your practice and your discipline. One
sub-competency should be one you will be able to easily meet in your practice
and the other should be the one you feel you will struggle most with in your
practice. ii. (List
the second Sub-Competency Chosen): Identify two sub-competencies for the IPE
competency chosen, discuss the value of each sub-competency to your practice
and your discipline, and provide examples of how you will promote the
sub-competencies in future practice. Use real-world examples to demonstrate how
the sub-competency benefits your practice and your discipline. One
sub-competency should be one you will be able to easily meet in your practice
and the other should be the one you feel you will struggle most with in your
practice. d. (List the first strategy to Improve IPE KSAs): Identify
how you can use the information from this assignment to strengthen your
learning throughout the remainder of your formal education at USAHS by
providing a strategy you can use to improve your knowledge, skills, and
attitudes (KSAs) related to IPE. Share at least one challenge you will have to
overcome to make this strategy a reality and a plan for how you will overcome
the challenge. e. (List the second strategy to improve IPE KSAs): Identify
how you can use the information from this assignment to strengthen your
learning throughout the remainder of your formal education at USAHS by

and a plan for how you will overcome the challenge.
f. (List the third strategy to improve IPE KSAs): Identify
how you can use the information from this assignment to strengthen your
learning throughout the remainder of your formal education at USAHS by
