University students’ and educators’ perceptions on the use of digital and social media platforms: A sentiment analysis and a multi-country review

Due to Covid-19, an inevitable restructuring of higher education teaching and learning pedagogies ensuring the continuous and effective learning of students is deemed important. Despite such vitality, a prevalent disparity worldwide on the usages and gains of digital and social media integration is still noticeable. Following a Scoping Literature Review and using the Atlas.ti software for a Grounded Theory qualitative analysis, this study aims to ascertain the significance of digital and social media tools during and after the Covid-19 pandemic. The study explains the common challenges and opportunities both students and educators faced in thirty countries. Drawing on the sentiment analysis of these stakeholders, results indicate that despite the acceleration of digital education into a flexible, and student-centered didactic approach, various barriers in effectively fulfilling online learning still exist. Findings also revealed the lack of, and therefore need for, proper teaching and learning material and strategies suitable for digital education.

PODIZANJE KVALITETA, DIGITALIZACIJA I MODERNIZACIJA VISOKOG OBRAZOVANJA KROZ IMPLEMENTACIJU ERASMUS+ PROJEKTA – IQPHARM / RAISING THE QUALITY, DIGITALIZATION AND MODERNIZATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ERASMUS+ PROJECT - IQPHARM

In order to raise and harmonize the quality standards of pharmaceutical studies at the national level of Bosnia and Herzegovina and thus get closer to the implementation and quality assurance of study programs of EU countries, a team of professors from the University of Sarajevo-Faculty of Pharmacy prepared and was awarded the Erasmus+ project IQPharm. IQPharm (Innovating quality assessment tools for pharmacy studies in Bosnia and Herzegovina) aims at capacity building of quality management, and aims to introduce new tools for quality improvement, digitization and modernization of pharmacy studies at public universities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, including strengthening semi-structured experiential education in line with EU standards and higher education regulations for regulated professions. The introduction of new tools for the assessment of the quality of study programs (KREF) enables the development of evidence-based recommendations for change, modification and innovation of existing methods of knowledge transfer, didactic approaches and curricula. The introduction of a new system of proficiency testing through experiential education (OSCE) sets equal standards at the national level for the learning outcomes of graduate pharmacists. The development of E-platform ensures the digitization and modernization of experiential education management. Experiential education at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina will be significantly improved through the introduction of the E-platform, by raising the standards of the practice itself and facilitating its implementation by student services, students and their mentors. A special part of this project is the development of free modules, which are extracurricular subjects intended to enrich the knowledge of students and graduates of pharmacy, They should track the labor market trends, and thus make higher education more agile and attractive.

3D capturing anatomic complex biomodel in medicine veterinary: how to prepare, digitize and replicate the male canine urogenital system

Medical images combined with 3D printing techniques have been a differential for clinical surgical and didactic approaches. The segmentation of anatomical structures in medical images for their 3D printing of biomodels has been showing promise in medical applications. The use of iodine contrast in solution on anatomical specimens promotes an increasing the density and better caption resolution of CT, expanding the range of possibilities for 3D medicine. With the capture of a complex anatomical arrangement, there is an advantage over the use of biomodels both in a digital and physical interactive way. In this article, we explain how to digitize a set of anatomical structures of the canine urogenital system in topographic position and how to create 3D digital and printed replicas. The biomodel can be applied in the most diverse areas of veterinary medicine and related fields.

The Social, Therapeutic and Didactic Dimension of Shame in Seneca’s Thinking

This paper analyses the problem of shame in the thinking of Lucius Annaeus Seneca. The authors examine this problem primarily in two contexts. The first, social meaning, understands shame as an emotion that appears during a conflict between a person’s “self” and social norms. Seneca mainly tackles this question concerning providing “benefits” (beneficia) in his On Benefits and eighty-first letter of Moral Epistles. The second therapeutic and didactic meaning utilises shame as an instrument to manage some illnesses of the mind (for example, anger). Moreover, to educate a “Stoic disciple” (proficiens), deliberate exposure to shame in public marks one of the important techniques to near the perfect ideal of “the wise man” (sapiens) and to prepare oneself for service in public office. Especially in Moral Epistles, we find a detailed description of this didactic approach and the limiting factors to using this technique.

Utilization of superconducting magnetic energy storage and doubly fed induction generator for enhancing stability of interconnected power system

SummaryAs the share of wind power keeps on increasing, the interaction between synchronous and wind generators pose a challenging issue on power system stability. In order to investigate the impact of wind penetration on stability of power system, appropriate modeling of wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) is necessary. Moreover, it is needed to comprehensively study the impact of wind penetration on power system oscillations. This paper presents a didactic approach for integrating a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)‐based wind farm from SimPower Systems library to a five‐area 68‐bus power system modeled in Simulink. Inter‐area oscillations with and without wind power penetration are investigated for their characteristics. Renewable energy sources are connected to the grid via power electronics converters at the cost of a reduction in inertia. The concept of virtual synchronous generator (VSG) produces virtual inertia by exchanging active power with the power system. The impact of superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) and DFIG on enhancing damping performance of inter‐area is investigated. The increase in damping ratios of inter‐area oscillatory modes verifies the enhancement in small signal stability by connecting SMES and DFIG to the power system. The usage of SMES operating in VSG mode to improve the dynamic stability with highly erratic wind profile is also investigated. The developed MATLAB/SIMULINK‐based DFIG model is simple to use and can be expanded to build efficient controllers. The fidelity of the DFIG model and VSG technology is verified in real time by Opal‐RT (OP4510).

Study of Children's Literature "Magic Watermelon Seeds" in the Implementation of Didactic Bibliotherapy-Based Character Education

Children's literature is used as a medium forChildren's literature is a medium for the formation of children's character. Therefore, children's literature should be reviewed so that children's moral values can be optimally taught. The purpose of this research is to study and review children's literature before it is given to children or students at school. The approach to studying children's literature uses a didactic bibliotherapy model or therapy using book media. The study is based on library research. The book studied is a children's book entitled "The Magic Watermelon Seeds", which was published by the Ministry of Education and Culture in cooperation with Room to Read. The results of the research show that the book contains seven implicit moral values. The seven moral values are: 1) emulating good character; 2) being careful in doing; 3) gracefully accepting fate; 4) generous, sincere, and compassionate to everyone; 5) rewarding people who do something expecting conditions; 6) generous to brothers; and 7) living harmoniously and side by side. The content of these moral values can be transmitted to children through a didactic bibliotherapy approach using the method of reading aloud individually or in groups.

Does flipping the classroom with videos and notetaking promote high school students’ performance in mathematics?

Using a quasi-experiment with the pre-/post-test control group design, the present study investigated whether flipping an advanced pre-calculus class would lead to a statistically significant gain in the learning of conic sections for high school students. The subjects were 50 11th graders (n=50), who were equally divided into two groups. The treatment group (n=25) learned conic sections via the flipped classroom model, while the control group (n=25) was taught the same topic traditionally via the didactic approach. The intervention comprised flipping mathematics class with four video-assisted lessons and notetaking. All subjects were pre-tested on their prior knowledge on conic sections before starting the experiment and post-tested after intervention. The results of the post-test indicated statistically significant difference between the mean score of the treatment group and that of the control group, reflecting the effectiveness of the flipped instruction. Participants enjoyed the intervention.

A didactic sequence for the initial study of fractions

The present study is focused on the mathematical object of fractions. A didactic support sequence was elaborated and implemented as the first formal approach to its study for students in the third year of elementary level school, using, as a means, accessible manipulative materials to be used in the classroom. In order to identify the theoretical elements that served as a guide for the design of the activities and the manipulative materials, analyzes were carried out from the epistemological and didactic approaches. The didactic sequence consists of three parts: the first is based on the previous notions that the student has about fractions, using their experiences with daily life; in the second part it is contextualized, trying to formalize the object, going from a middle to a half; Finally, the use of numbers to represent fractions is introduced, making use of figural representations. It was applied to 6 students. It was concluded that the process of building their knowledge about fractions, starting with ½, associating it with their experiences, and using manipulative materials, allowed students to outline the concept of fractions and arrive at its numerical representation, giving meaning to the numerator and denominator.

Effectiveness of an analogy-containing video project to reinforce pharmacy students' learning of kidney physiology

Background and purposeKidney physiology is one of the most difficult topics covered in health professions education. This study examined the effectiveness of an analogy-containing video project to reinforce pharmacy students' knowledge of kidney physiology. Educational activity and settingStudents were assigned in groups to create a video that used analogy to explain kidney physiology processes. Survey responses, a rubric, and an objective test were used to assess the project's effectiveness. FindingsStudents generated various analogies, such as making tea or coffee, cars and roads, and the college application process to explain kidney physiology. Most of the submitted videos successfully met all criteria in the rubric. All students believed that the project was effective, to varying degrees, in reinforcing their knowledge. Weak to moderate positive correlations were found between time spent on the project and perceived effectiveness of use of analogy to accomplish most of the learning objectives investigated. Students reported that the project engaged both lower- and higher-order cognitive skills. Quiz score analysis showed higher average scores of students on physiology-related questions compared to non-physiology items. Notably, this improvement was most marked for bottom-performing students. About 60% of students recommended the use of videos as a class assignment, but only 50% believed that they should be used as an alternative to quizzes. SummaryAn analogy-containing video project effectively reinforced student learning of kidney physiology. Further studies are needed to verify the effectiveness of this technique compared to other didactic and learning approaches.

Fellow-led didactics in a hematology/oncology fellowship program.

11026 Background: The pandemic in 2020 made us used to virtual learning, but as we recover from the pandemic, we are forced to rethink how we deliver education to trainees in medicine. The pandemic has led to a significantly decreased attention span and face to face interactions, in addition to an increased screen time. In our program, this led to us noting a lower engagement in the fellowship didactics as we recovered from the pandemic. This forced us to rethink how the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) hematology and oncology fellowship delivers educational content. After interviewing all stakeholders, we moved to an in-person fellow led didactic approach, under the mentorship of a faculty expert who helps trainees design content and is present for discussion. The rationale behind this approach was to boost peer-to-peer learning, supply relevant content and increase engagement. The fellows and faculty were provided guidelines about length of talk, presentation of data and use of interactive tools. Methods: After 6 months of introducing fellow led didactics, we surveyed all fellows and select faculty who were mentors on more than one occasion about their opinion. A survey link was sent to all 12 fellows and 18 faculty members who regularly took part in fellowship didactics. Results: All 12 fellows responded to the survey. On a Likert scale of 1-5, they scored improvement in knowledge at 4.58 (0.64) and rated both the content and presenter at 4.25 (0.43). A third felt that this way of delivering didactics was a lot better and the rest felt it was a little better. On the negative side, they felt that they were spending more time preparing content (40% spent 7-9 hours a month) but were optimistic about lesser commitment next year as we bank the PowerPoint presentations. Nine of the 18 (50%) invited faculty responded to the survey, and on a scale of 1-5, they rated their improvement of knowledge as 4.44 (0.68). They scored the content and presenter at 4.44 (0.5) and 4.56 (0.68) respectively. 88.9% felt that the didactics were either a little or a lot better, and 11.1% felt them to be the same. On average, they spent less time on the content than they did if they were presenting. Conclusions: Overall, both faculty and fellows felt that this method of delivering didactics in a hematology oncology fellowship program was more effective. The fellows felt that they needed to put in extra hours for preparation, but this will probably go down as they build on earlier presentations.

Wellness tourism in an active life system and promotion of social cohesion: the case of senior university(s)

Recognition of the potential of wellness and quality of life for tourism was manifested by deepening knowledge of this market in the face of the cultural and tourist dynamics developed, but also through the creation of new tourism products specific to this sector and an active lifestyle system. Senior universities, for example, have been playing an increasingly important role in this dynamic of well-being and active life. It has not only promoted activities aimed at the cultural and tourist practice of an active life of well-being but also contributed to the social cohesion of the territory. In this study, carried out geographically in the Centre of Portugal, the aim is to present a case study related to the practice of well-being and active life through the senior university in its relationship with tourism education and the enhancement of the cultural experience. The main objectives of this study are, therefore, the approach to wellness tourism in an active life system and the promotion of social cohesion and by verifying the importance of guaranteeing a healthy life in tourist places that lead people to experience aspects of a healthy lifestyle committed to growing cultural and tourist knowledge. To achieve both objectives, a quantitative analysis was carried out, and from the preliminary results, it is identified that senior universities should, therefore, be understood as social intervention devices. Innovative didactic approaches to teaching end up accompanying the availability of information that facilitates access to knowledge, not least because the new reality contributed by the aging of the population, associated with the process of globalization and the economic and social situation, poses new challenges to the present-day education of well-being, being and quality of life. The conclusions point to favoring the quality of life and social inclusion of those who actively participate in the activities provided by the senior university(s), as active life strategies linked to cultural, wellness, and tourism quality of life, reinforcing the role of social cohesion in the territory in which it operates.

METHODS OF FORMING INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE IN THE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

The article is devoted to the development of intercultural competence as one of the main competencies of students’ language training in higher education. The authors defined the concept of intercultural competence. The authors consider the theoretical foundations of intercultural competence in the educational environment, which are outlined in the basic document in the field of language education «Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment». M. Byram’s model of intercultural competence development and its components (knowledge, skills, attitudes, and education) are considered in the article. The analysis of scientific-methodical and pedagogical literature on the formation of intercultural competence is outlined; the survey among students at Dnipro Humanitarian University was made, as well as statistical analysis and generalizing of the obtained results for the future didactic approaches for the development of intercultural competence in a higher education institution. The article presents the results of the survey among students at Dnipro Humanitarian University regarding the educational conditions for intercultural competence development at the university. To identify effective methods of intercultural competence development, as well as to determine methods of developing intercultural competence within the framework of teaching the disciplines «English for Specific Purposes», «Business English» and extracurricular work with students, a survey of students was conducted. Based on the analysis of the results of the survey, students consider intercultural competence development to be the priority in the educational environment proposed. Universities should contribute to students’ intercultural competence development by offering various student mobility programs, and opening opportunities for student exchanges. Such programs and activities help students to understand the differences between cultures and establish effective interaction with colleagues from different countries.

Learning to use electronic outlining via observational learning: Effects on students' argumentative writing performance

AbstractBackgroundWriting is an important and complex skill, which could be enhanced by teaching students effective writing strategies such as outlining. Electronic outlining ‐ integrated feature in Microsoft® Word – has been shown to enhance students' writing performance. However, little is known about the optimal didactic approach for electronic outlining.ObjectiveThis study examined the effects of learning to use electronic outlining either via observational learning or via learning‐by‐doing on students' argumentative writing performance.MethodsStudents (N = 129, 10th‐grade) were assigned with their complete class to one of three conditions: a control (traditional pen and paper outlines via learning‐by‐doing), outline (electronic outlines via learning‐by‐doing) or observation (electronic outlines via observational learning) condition. Students followed an argumentative writing lesson‐series that differed across conditions in terms of planning strategies and didactic approaches used. To examine the influence of the different conditions on students' writing, argumentative texts were used as pre‐ and post‐tests, and the quality was evaluated with an analytic assessment protocol. In addition, data regarding students' perceived mental effort and the organisation of the writing process were collected. Finally, students' attitudes towards electronic outlining were assessed.Results and ConclusionAlthough the overall text structure had improved after the lesson series, no significant differences were found between conditions. Electronic outlining increased the total amount of time dedicated to the texts as well as the revision ratio. Students in the observation condition showed a higher pause ratio and a lower fluency on the post‐test as compared to students who learned by doing (both control and outline conditions). With regard to perceived mental effort, students in the outline and control conditions perceived significant decreases over tasks, as opposed to those in the observation condition. In conclusion, the self‐reports indicate that students in the outline condition appropriated electronic outlining significantly better than those in the observation condition, suggesting that practice enhanced students' appropriation of electronic outlining.

Inverter-Induced Bearing Currents: A Thorough Study of the Cause-and-Effect Chains

In the last three decades, the study of inverter-induced bearing currents has become a very important line of research, and hundreds of works related to this theme can be found in the literature. Thus, several contributions concerning these currents were made, such as in the areas of modeling and simulation techniques, selection of appropriate mitigation method, developments of new mitigation devices, and damage monitoring within the bearings, among others. In this context, much information related to bearing currents cause-and-effect chains is available. However, many contributions that have been developed in recent years for describing the mechanisms behind the bearing currents occurrence can only be found in a fragmented way. Thus, great efforts must be employed to provide a clear comprehension of each bearing current type and all the corresponding issues. To overcome this problem, this article provides a broad overview of the physical principles related to the inverter-induced bearing current, by means of a detailed and didactic approach. A huge volume of information was compiled, describing the expected currents maximum amplitudes, their probability of occurrence, and the motor size which they are more expected to occur, among other relevant issues.

“Interacting with the material differently”: A mixed methods study exploring nursing student engagement and satisfaction with a flipped classroom approach

Engagement is critical for students to meet learning outcomes, yet modern classrooms face challenges with engagement when using a traditional didactic approach. Alternative options include using a flipped classroom where students review content prior to class, and teachers use in-class activities to increase application, analysis, and synthesis of information. This study aimed to (1) explore for changes in student engagement, and satisfaction, and achievement among students in a flipped classroom learning environment between mid and end of semester; and (2) to further explain quantitative results through qualitative student feedback. A convergent mixed methods design was used to recruit sixty-four nursing students in a Midwest U.S. College of Nursing, who completed a survey at mid and end of semester in the Fall of 2015. Students were also given the opportunity to participate in a focus group (n = 36) after the final survey. Most students were satisfied with the flipped classroom approach including before class materials, knowledge check quizzes using real-time response software, and the group test activity. However, participants were unsatisfied with reflective journal writing and group-based in class learning activities. Qualitative focus group data provided an explanation of quantitative results by identifying aspects of the flipped classroom viewed as helpful or not. Themes included small groups, enthusiastic teacher, repetition and application, doubling up on work, engaging, and dislike for course topic. More research is needed on pedogeological approaches to engage modern students, so they are prepared for nursing practice after graduation. The flipped classroom approach, which leverages multiple learning strategies, may be valuable to engage students and promote application of content.

A IMPORTÂNCIA DA AVALIAÇÃO INTERDICSIPLINAR - NEUROPSICOPEDAGÓGICA

Neuropsychopedagogy and the evaluation processes, over time and in view of the educational demand, gain space in the school environment and, like any other field of study, undergo changes over the years. This study aims to identify the importance and benefits of Neuropsychopedagogical assessment. This is a bibliographical research with the objective of answering some practical and conceptual questions related to neuropsychological assessment. Such as: Why evaluate? What to evaluate? How to evaluate? To what extent and to what extent can the school develop skills and competencies in the face of a diagnosis? It emphasizes the importance of obtaining a theoretical model that supports the evaluation instruments to better understand or even overcome the limiting contours of this approach. It seeks to know and identify the historical-social determinants that still have strong roots and reverberate in the present. The possibilities for evaluating are varied and the didactic approaches that permeate this practice are diverse.
