Common Cyber Situational Awareness: An Important Part of Modern Public Protection and Disaster Relief

European Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR) services such as law enforcement, firefighting, emergency medical and disaster recovery services have recognized that the lack of interoperability of technical systems limit the cooperation between authorities. Also Finnish PPDR authorities and politicians have recognized the importance of a common situational awareness in preparation for the future. When the purpose is to work effectively towards a common goal or solve various challenges, accurate and reliable information as a basis for situational awareness is needed. Cyber situational awareness is the part of situational awareness which concerns the “cyber” environment. Such situational awareness can be reached, e.g., by the use of data from IT sensors that can be fed to a data fusion process or be interpreted directly by the decision-maker. This study was conducted on the ground by visiting situation and command centers located in the Turku area in Southwestern Finland. The Southwestern Finland Police department, the Southwest Finland Emergency Services, the Hospital District of Southwest Finland and the Finnish Border Guard in Turku have their own situation/ command centers. The main purpose of the study was to find out local level factors which affect to utilization of situational awareness system. The aim was also to research the level of preparedness in regional administration including local PPDR departments. The main results can be summarized so that the operational field work of the PPDR authorities should be more standardized so that implementing new technology would be profitable. The lack of cooperation between situation centers prevent to create common situational awareness. In the future, cyber situational awareness can play an important role in emergency and crisis management because the scene of PPDR will increasingly often be a cyber-physical system.

Parenteral Nutrition Basics for the Clinician Caring for the Adult Patient.

Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-sustaining therapy providing nutrients to individuals with impaired intestinal tract function and enteral access challenges. It is one of the most complex prescriptions written routinely in the hospital and home care settings. This article is to aid the nutrition support clinician in the safe provision of PN, including selecting appropriate patients for PN, vascular access, development of a PN admixture, appropriate therapy monitoring, recognition of preparation options, and awareness of preparation and stability concerns.

How to Share Korean Language and Culture with Pre-Service Teachers in the United States

Many teacher educators believe that pre-service teachers should be aware of their future classroom environment including students who have linguistically and culturally diverse backgrounds. This paper is a description of how two teacher educators helped pre-service teachers develop their multicultural awareness in preparation for careers in Early Childhood Education. 74 pre-service teachers participated in the 8-week-long intervention, learning about 8 different topics of Korean language and culture during the 2012 Institute of Early Childhood Education Forum. The authors’ and presenters’ reflections, and participants’ survey data were collected, analyzed, and summarized for the intervention. The study results indicated that considering a variety of instructional strategies could help teacher educators prepare a forum to teach about Korean language and culture in Early Childhood Education and that pre-service teachers could receive benefits from the information offered.

정신장애인의 평생계획수립을 위한 경험

본 연구는 정신장애인의 평생계획수립을 위한 주관적인 경험을 깊이있게 알아보기 위해서 질적연구방법으로 접근하여 분석하였다. 연구대상자는 독립취업 후 6개월이상 직업을 유지하고 있는 정신장애인 12명을 대상으로 평생계획수립을 위한 주관적 경험을 심층인터뷰를 통해 분석하였다. 자료수집 기간은 2011년 1월 11일부터 2011년 2월 10일까지 조사하였다. 연구참여자들이 진술한 내용을 분석한 결과 최종적으로 38개의 구성된 의미가 도출되었다. 이들 구성된 의미들을 유사한 내용으로 묶고 분류한 결과 17개의 주제와 7개의 주제묶음으로 범주화되었다. 평생계획수립을 위한 경험으로 나타난 7개의 주제묶음은 안정적인 직업유지, 자기자신의 역량계발, 사회적 지지, 건강관리, 미래대비를 위한 인식갖기, 희망적인 사고, 다양한 사회활동으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 중심으로 실천적 함의를 제시하였다. This study is a qualitative research whose purpose is to analyze subjective experiences of permanency planning establishment by persons with mental disabilities. For the purpose, this researcher selected 12 persons with mental disabilities who have been maintaining their job for more than 6 months since they got it independently and then profoundly interviewed them to examine their subjective experiences in permanency planning establishment. Data were collected from Jan. 11th to Feb. 10th, 2011. Statements by the participants were analyzed and, from which, 38 constructed meanings were obtained. Those meanings were grouped and classified according to their similarities. As a result, they were finally categorized into 17 themes and 7 theme clusters. Those 7 clusters included stable job maintenance, self-capacity development, social supports, health management, awareness in preparation for the future, hopeful thinking and various social activities. Based on the findings of the study, finally, the researcher suggested some practical implications.

Integrating computers into the curriculum: a development project

This article introduces the idea of Computer Assisted Case Studies, or CACS, which we believe to be a new approach to Computer Assisted Learning (CAL) in nurse education. CACS combines the use of seminars/discussions with accessing information via a computer terminal. This is seen as an important step towards helping nurses to develop computer awareness in preparation for the use of wardbased terminals. It outlines the first steps in a joint project undertaken by St George's and the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST) to develop and pilot computer software of a more imaginative nature than is currently used in the St George's CAL unit. It gives a brief history of the project, the main aim of which is to maximise use of learning resources. Details are given of the computer facilities available to both learners and teachers. Some attempt has already been made to incorporate CAL into the curriculum at St George's, and the use of CACS is seen as a further step in that direction. It is hoped that a fuller report will be produced in the future, when further piloting and development has been undertaken.
