The process involved the formulation of educational model, preparation of students and implementation of three IPE sessions as a collaborative effort between dental and nutrition faculty. Teaching strategies included small group discussions and case studies to foster inclusive learning. The IPE teaching activity evaluation presented in this article corresponds to traditional pretest-posttest (TPP) design, using a validated IPE tool SPICE-R2.
