Abstract
This paper describes an innovative teaching strategy and opportunity to foster student
resilience and enhance interprofessional collaboration among nursing and social work
students, during a Study Abroad Interprofessional Education (IPE) Experience, using
a reflective practice framework. This Study Abroad IPE Experience was an opportunity
to capitalize on IPE teamwork, communication, and collaboration with the incorporation
of reflective journaling as both an evaluative tool for students and faculty and as
a mechanism for promoting self-awareness and enhanced mental wellbeing.
