This report describes the design and pilot testing of a large-scale, mobile, technology-enhanced serious game embedded in the IPE curriculum in Geneva, Switzerland. Organized into teams of eight, the students were tasked with finding a young patient who had just escaped from the intensive care unit. Through a series of 10 stations, they explored hospital- and community-based locations of the healthcare system and were engaged in various learning and game activities; they were rewarded with cues to unveil the mystery. A total of 582 undergraduate students from seven disciplines (medicine, midwifery, nursing, nutrition-dietetics, pharmacy, physiotherapy, and technology in medical radiology) took part. Survey results (response rate: 62.8%) suggest that an overall majority of students valued the game, particularly the collaborative experience of actively learning from others in autonomous teams. Qualitative feedback allowed us to identify future areas for improvement: simplifying the adventure storyline and optimizing student flow. Educational institutions across the world facing challenges when creating IPE activities will find in this report ideas and lessons learnt to use mobile technology and serious gaming for large cohorts of students.</p> Collaborative practice Health care Interprofessional education Serious gaming Technology-enhanced learning Dewey 615 31 Section des sciences pharmaceutiques 17 false 1344 Adhésion thérapeutique et interprofessionnalité Journal of interprofessional care 38 4 d236e30d-f5d7-4dc0-b350-c1075a561e20 Article (Published version) Public Large-scale_mobile_and_technology-.pdf 759761 application/pdf b2ee6c9935551374676cbdf5f2fc2f869f62a65599f8fce2a6ad1c0ed64f87aa openAccess Faculté des sciences / Section des sciences pharmaceutiques
