This teaching strategy introduces students to a new interprofessional field of study called gerontechnology, which concerns the matching of technological environments to health, housing, mobility, communication, and the leisure and work of older adults. The learning activities in this strategy can be used for undergraduate or graduate students, separately or together. This teaching strategy can also be used as interprofessional activities to engage students from nursing, medicine, social work, physical therapy, and pharmacy as they brainstorm ideas about public health policy and research related to gerontechnology. The learning activities can be used in class or online. Files are downloadable/printable.
