Abstract

This book has traced the development and implementation of the DEU as a clinical learning and teaching environment. It has explored the DEU’s conception (Chap. 2, this volume), framing within the pedagogical basis of a community of practice (Chap. 3, this volume), adaptation and uptake in Australia, the USA, New Zealand and Sweden (Chaps. 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, this volume), inbuilt and formally structured capacity building (Chap. 9, this volume) and shared personal experiences (Chap. 10, this volume). Chapter 11 (Edgecombe et al., this volume), which has outlined how to do a DEU by giving examples of different processes used by the Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology/Canterbury District Health Board (CPIT/CDHB) DEU partnership team, consolidates Chaps. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 (this volume). It completes the journey through DEUs by putting all the essential elements together in one chapter as a ‘how to’ guide.
