Themes	Selected Quotes from Open Ended Questions
COVID-19 Impact on Teaching
Cancellation of in-person events, including clinical rotations	● Clinical outreach and rotations were halted. Students glean a great deal of IPE experiences during these learning opportunities. ● Simulations were not able to be in person changing the dynamic of the experience with the patient/family as well as the interdisciplinary colleague. Not able to debrief after the simulation experience.
Learning how to use technology quickly	● Time spent focusing on technology and accessibility took away from other course material. Different than what I had planned, but necessary all the same.
Time constraints	● Time and incorporating remote teaching/learning provided challenges ● Teams were too busy for education, still are to some degree.
Separation/distance	● Moving off-site has decreased the amount of interaction within my interdisciplinary team. Most interactions happen via email or phone which does not allow for organic IPE to take place in the same way as in-person interactions. ● Inability to get disciplines together
IPE Competencies that Need to be Emphasized
All competencies	● It is impossible to pick one or only a couple from this list. In order to provide a high standard of care for our patients and families, it is vital that caregivers of all disciplines work within the context of all of these competencies. To leave even one off would negatively impact the care a patient/family would receive.
Intercultural humility	● They are all important, if I had to choose one, it would be intercultural humility. Our country is very divided and understanding cultural humility is vital.
Communication	● Without communication, I strongly believe, none of these other areas are feasible.
Faculty Development Needs
Time/Opportunity	● I would like to see more opportunities for collaborative learning experiences and for faculty to have the opportunity to teach in other programs. I would also like increased faculty training and opportunities to participate in formal IPE training.
Technology challenges	● Engaging audiences in a virtual setting. It is hard to know if people are learning when their names are the only thing up on a Zoom lecture. ● More experience with telehealth and it's processes and associated skills ● Broadening the development of online IPE courses to learn these skills, would be helpful in making courses and techniques more accessible to students.
Online opportunities	● We need to offer more accessibility to the IPE courses offered in Ann Arbor (AA) to the smaller campuses (Flint). There are many opportunities in AA that are not available to the other campuses in part due to location, timing and program schedules. Consider offering virtual or on-line options that truly allow more students the opportunity to participate. ● Building online virtual simulations ● Leveraging the advantage distance learning gives us in promoting interactions that do not have to occur face to face or even necessarily synchronously.
