Pedagogical aspects of interprofessional workplace learning: a case study.

In this article we aim to elucidate some pedagogical aspects of interprofessional workplace learning, using the learning strategies of the Centre for Interprofessional Workplace Learning, Norway (TVEPS) as a case. We find the Expansive Learning Theory well suited for a creative interaction with the learning strategies at our interprofessional training centre. The Expansive Learning Theory focuses on learning over a substantial time horizon, but also opens for micro-cycles of learning over a shorter time of hours or days, which mirrors the learning system of TVEPS.

The Relative Effect of Team-Based Learning on Motivation and Learning: A Self-Determination Theory Perspective.

We investigate the effects of team-based learning (TBL) on motivation and learning in a quasi-experimental study. The study employs a self-determination theory perspective to investigate the motivational effects of implementing TBL in a physiotherapy course in higher education. We adopted a one-group pretest-posttest design.
