Method or Media: 10 Do’s and Some Don’ts for Using Media in Online Post-Secondary Education

For effective online teaching and learning there is no short-cut for good instructional design, as well as following well-established pedagogical practices. For universities in the post-pandemic era, the main challenges for delivering quality online programs are, first, to provide good access through high quality digital infrastructure, and, secondly, to assure that all lecturers are trained in modern pedagogical approaches, basic instructional design principles for online teaching, and media usage. In my own experience, following the eight QM “Quality Matters” standards, will go a long way in improving online instruction and student engagement. These standards provide a simple, proven and robust framework, even for the inexperienced to design and deliver an effective and engaging course. Universities that have consistently applied QM standards, for example, dominate the rankings for best online programs in the USA (QM 2020). Uniquely, QM offers a low-cost training program on online teaching that can be rolled out at scale for lecturers at member universities and schools, that includes all elements for developing and delivering effective online courses, including the use of media.The use of media in any course is always optional. Recent research, however, shows that the use of media, in particular asynchronous video in combination with other learning materials, can lead to substantial improvements in learning. This research found that the combination of solid instructional design and the appropriate use of asynchronous media in online or hybrid courses can be more effective than traditional face-to-face teaching, due to more focused content, and students being able to rewind thus avoiding feeling overwhelmed (Noetel et al., 2021). Finally, I offer 10 helpful pointers for developing and delivering online courses using media, for those of us who are not experienced online instructors, or instructional designers.

Acute appendicitis in children during the COVID-19 pandemic

Introduction. Ear complications in children are rare and are still an immediate life threatening condition. In children the most common complication is acute mastoiditis in the course of acute otitis media. The predominant symptoms are severe pain in the ear and the retroauricular region, swelling of the muzzle region with protrusion of the auricle and subsidence of the posteriori-top wall of the external auditory canal. Aim. The aim of this study was to present patients with acute mastoiditis during the COVID-19 pandemic and to evaluate the co-infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus. Material and methods. A retrospective analysis of hospitalized patients with acute mastoiditis between 2020 and 2021 was performed. We evaluated the co-occurrence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children with ear complications, seasonality of complications, age, gender, diagnostic methods and analysis of pathogens responsible for the development of the complication. Results. Between 2020 and 2021, 23 patients with acute mastoiditis were hospitalized at the Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology University Clinical Center Medical University of Warsaw. One patient was diagnosed with coexisting SARS-CoV-2 infection. In the analyzed group there was a significant predominance of boys over girls M:K = 2.8:1. The mean age of the patients was 5 years. All patients showed clinical signs of acute mastoiditis in the form of swelling of the soft tissues of the behind-the-ear region with inflammation of the skin and withdrawal of the auricle. Otoscopic examination revealed purulent middle ear leakage in 22% of children, while the remaining 78% showed no perforation of the tympanic membrane, with purulent discharge deposited throughout the tympanic cavity. In the bacteriological studies obtained, no pathogens were found in 74% of the children. All patients had intravenous antibiotic therapy and surgical treatment. Conclusions. Among hospitalized patients with acute mastoiditis, the highest morbidity was observed in January-April 2020 and September-December 2021. No patient with ear complication was hospitalized from May 2020 to September 2020. This was the period when, from May 2020, day nurseries, kindergartens and schools began to be subject to strict sanitary regime recommendations by the Chief Sanitary Inspectorate, which could contribute to a reduced incidence of upper respiratory tract infections. Hospitalization of a patient with acute mastoiditis with a coexisting complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection required isolation of the patient in the observation-isolation unit of our hospital. However, the patient’s respiratory and circulatory distress wasn’t observed and he didn’t require intensive medical care.

TRASH TO TREASURE: INTEGRATING ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS INTO UNIVERSITY CURRICULUM

Over the last decade, educators around the world have paid increasing attention to raising public awareness of the need to make concerted efforts to provide a sustainable future for this planet. Many scientists and eco-activists have done a lot to develop public environmental consciousness using different educational tools. This paper discusses integrating environmental awareness into academic curriculum. It analyses the introduction of an environmental component to the English for the Media course offered at St Petersburg University. The experimental study was conducted for three semesters: in the spring semester of 2019 (February - May 2019), the fall semester of the same year (September - December 2019) and the spring semester of 2020 (February - May 2020). It involved 65 first - and second-year journalism students. Media professionals are responsible for changing the way people look at the environment. Project-based learning helps students to expand their environmental repertoires such as shaping public perception of ‘green consumerism’ as a fashionable trend. The growing awareness of environmental issues requires shaping consumer's mindfulness about obliteration and depletion of natural resources through irresponsible activities. The trash-to-treasure and eco-comics projects are lightweight, exciting and effective tools of raising environmental awareness in future media practitioners and enhancing their scientific writing skills. Using these skills journalists can make their environmental messages accessible to a broader public.

Incorporating an annual giving campaign into the academic curriculum: A guide to getting started

Utilising social media platforms in annual giving campaigns are effective because the campaign reaches potential donors on their preferred social media channel and offers them a level of engagement with their alma mater through visual content and hashtags. Student participation in annual giving campaigns is often an overlooked opportunity at many universities. At a small liberal arts university, student participation became an essential component to an annual giving campaign when the participation was integrated with learning outcomes for a social media course. As a result of this integration, the annual giving campaign benefitted from student-generated content, interconnectivity with student social media networks and elevated traffic on university social media networks. Total campaign donations between annual giving years of 2018 and 2019 increased by 63 per cent and the total number of donors by 34 per cent. This case study offers a guide to implementing a course in social media and fundraising designed to provide students with real-time campaign experience during an annual giving campaign. Posting content on social media platforms is second nature for most students as these platforms serve as the primary tool for their interaction with family, friends, organisations and favoured brands. The successful integration of learning outcomes with an annual giving campaign expands the literature surrounding media multiplexity and social media capital. This case study lends itself to literature focusing on enhancing the relationship between students and the university experience for future increased alumni participation.

К вопросу о патогенезе затянувшегося течения экссудативного среднего отита

The article is devoted to the role of the regional lymphatic system of the middle ear, from the point of view of the pathogenesis of the prolonged presence of fluid in the air cavities of the temporal bone with a prolonged course of serous otitis media. The study was carried out in an experiment on a model of exudative otitis media in laboratory animals (20 sexually mature male Wistar rats). Studied the state of regional (superficial, facial, and deep) lymph nodes collecting lymph from the mastoid process, tympanic cavity; external auditory canal, auditory tube. Comparative morphological and morphometric studies of lymph nodes were carried out on the 12th day of experimental otitis media and were assessed according to 19 criteria: total area of the node section, area of the capsule, marginal sinus, cortex, paracortex, medullary sinuses, medullary cords, number and area of primary and secondary lymphoid nodules, area of germinal centers, specific areas of cortical and medullary substance, sinus system, cortical/medullary ratio (C/M index), T- and B-dependent areas. Disorders of lymph outflow in the middle ear area, different nature, and degree of response of regional lymph nodes of different groups to the exudative process were revealed. It is assumed that the restructuring of the structural organization of the nodes, reflecting the inhibition of their protective and drainage functions, can prolong the phenomena of lymphostasis in the area of the primary focus and lead to the protracted course of exudative otitis media in clinical practice.
