Teaching Collaboration: A Demonstration Model

School of Nursing, San Jose State University, San Jose, CA 95192-0057.

Teaching through collaboration models will greatly benefit future practitioners and professionals who intend to meet the needs of consumers, provide quality care, and be cost-effective. Clearly, the needs of people with psychiatric disabilities are complex and require the expertise of multiple professions; however, few opportunities exist for students to learn collaboration skills. The transdisciplinary collaboration project in San Jose, California, exemplifies teaching and learning opportunities for collaboration. Students and faculty from the disciplines of nursing, speech pathology, occupational therapy, social work, and recreational therapy were involved. Outcomes of the project are described.
