Microaggressions, Bias, and Equity in the Workplace: Why Does It Matter, and What Can Oncologists Do?

Despite efforts to embrace diversity, women and members of racial, ethnic, and gender minority groups continue to experience bias, inequities, microaggressions, and unwelcoming atmospheres in the workplace. Specifically, women in oncology have lower promotion rates and less financial support and mentorship, and they are less likely to hold leadership positions. These experiences are exceedingly likely at the intersection of identities, leading to decreased satisfaction, increased burnout, and a higher probability of leaving the workforce. Microaggressions have also been associated with depression, suicidal thoughts, and other health and safety issues. Greater workplace diversity and equity are associated with improved financial performance; greater productivity, satisfaction, and retention; improved health care delivery; and higher-quality research. In this article, we provide tools and steps to promote equity in the oncology workplace and achieve cultural change. We propose the use of tailored approaches and tools, such as active listening, for individuals to become microaggression upstanders; we also propose the implementation of education, evaluation, and transparent policies to promote a culture of equity and diversity in the oncology workplace.

RESOURCES AND SERVICES OF THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY IN THE CONDITIONS OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATIONS

Purpose. The processes of higher education digital transformation are actively developing. As a result, there are new challenges and requirements in which the role of university libraries is significantly changed. The university library is transformed upon us, expanding its functions and creating new services. Monitoring of publication activity, network interaction and cooperation of educational institutions, implementation of scientific and educational policy of university. The library is an integral component of the university strategic development in these and other aspects. To achieve these goals, university libraries are guided and take into account world trends that will influence the libraries’ development in the coming years: Open Science, Open Education and the key role of libraries to implement these ideas; intensive development and dissemination of information technologies; that the vast majority of library users are Digital Natives and Digital Citizen [1]. Methodology. Study and research of European academic practices on the directions of changes in education in crisis situations; DECriS project results on the use of digital methods and learning resources during the Covid‑19 pandemic, with a special emphasis on open educational resources (OER); the library role as a new online learning platform. NUS Scientific Library, in these conditions, directs its activities taking into account all world trends and challenges. The creation and support of a navigation orientation system in a variety of information resources through the library website as a “single window” is very relevant in terms of quarantine and remote work. Finding. To ensure the service transition on the qualitatively new level for remote users based on modern information technologies and active consumption of information resources by users, additional modules for the library system “USH/ Library” were introduced. During the pandemic, Science library expands access to the world’s providers of scientific resources – licensed commercial databases, openaccess Internet resources, DB of scientific and technical information in order to provide the most complete information. Features of the university librarians work: knowledge of the organization of digital instruments for scientific communications; specifics of scientific work of their institutions. To do this, new services are created and mastered in the university libraries. Open access documents and data are of interest to libraries and library professionals as resources of scientific, educational and cultural importance. Due to the large-scale distribution of open access electronic resources, their quality is not always unambiguous, so it is very relevant in the activities of university libraries to prepare navigators. NUS Scientific Library publishes the navigator “Open Access Resources,” which is popular among scientists. The number of online resources is huge, but only in units of universities they are integrated into the educational process, in ABIS and electronic libraries. The principal task for librarians is to integrate into the process of educational transformation. The model of interaction between the structural units of the university and librarians, who are ready to master this new competence, is what we are working now on. Practical value. In 2021, NUS Scientific Library employees began the first stage in the users’ media literacy study and developed a questionnaire “Student Media Literacy.” Monitoring should show the level of media literacy of students and their security in the media space. The second stage of the study is aimed at identifying media literacy of academicians. At the end of the study, we plan to develop measures aimed at increasing the media literacy of educational applicants and academicians. NUS Scientific Library is an integral link in the system of the University academic integrity and actively participates in the work of all components of this system, interacts with the structural subdivisions of the University on integrity practices. The library has developed a presentation, a lecture and a test for students, the procedure of events was approved by the Academic Council of the University in September, 2021. Despite the pandemic, during 2021–2022 the Scientific Library has launched a new eco-initiative – the implementation of the eco-project “Green light of our life,” we hope that the initiatives will help everyone to adjust their lives to the “green light” and be environmentally conscious. Results. Leading universities around the world are developing their libraries as intellectual centers. At this stage, the library should take a proper place in the management team of the university. Today, the Scientific Library sees its mission in facilitating the implementation of the educational process and the development of scientific research through quality information support and service; promotion of the university scientific heritage in the world information space; promotion and increase of the university scientific rating.

Realizing the City of Education Vision in The Study of Inclusive Education Policy Implementation in Metro City

Inclusive education is an education policy program that provides opportunities for children with special needs or disabilities to be accessible in regular schools. The problems faced by the Metro City government in carrying out inclusive education are the lack of standardization of facilities and infrastructure in the management of inclusive education in regular schools, limited accessibility for children with special needs in getting education, low understanding of educators in schools regarding children with special needs, and there is no special budget from the Metro City government that supports inclusive education, so that when the implementation of the policy can not be said to be successful, while the Metro City Development Vision is the Realization of an Educated City. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach. The results of this study indicate that inclusive education has not been implemented optimally because there are still many obstacles and obstacles in its implementation. Therefore, maximum effort is needed in implementing inclusive education with good cooperation and coordination between institutions and policy implementing institutions.

Background: The ever-increasing prevalence of school dropout (SD) highlights the need to gain insight into risk factors for dropout causes and consequences. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gender differences for health indicators in a sample of school dropout adolescents. Methods: Data were collected regarding 450 adolescent’s SD (19 ± 2 years; 308 males), and health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) and risk behaviors were assessed by means of a standardized questionnaire. Results: The results revealed that the female population was characterized by a compromised health indicator profile in terms of both risk behaviors and HRQoL dimensions. Conclusion: These findings indicate that SD is a multidimensional phenomenon, for which the implementation of multiple educational, social, and psychological policies aimed at mitigating the issue are recommended.

County-Level School Sex Education Policy: A Single State Analysis of the Association with Adolescent Birth and Sexually Transmitted Infections

Substantial evidence supports comprehensive sex education programs as effective means of promoting adolescent sexual health, but evidence on the effect of state-level sex education policy is inconclusive. Multiple states in the U.S. afford local authority in school policy, and existing literature calls for investigation of the impact of local interpretation and implementation of sex education policy. This study is the first to assess the association between stated county policy and select adolescent sexual health outcomes. In this single state multivariate analysis, stated county policy was not significantly associated with adolescent birth or sexually transmitted infections. The incongruity of evidence between the impacts of sex education programs and policies on teen birth and STIs in Florida suggests that implementation of policy and delivery of sex education at the district or school level may not align with stated county policy and may be a critical mediating factor, confirming an area of essential future research in sex education.

Semi-Online Learning as a Solution to the Digital Divide in Education in Frontier, Outermost, and Disadvantaged Regions

This research aims to explore semi-online learning practices as a solution to the digital divide in education in the Frontier, Outermost, and Disadvantaged (3T) regions. This research method uses qualitative research conducted at SMK N A Waingapu, East Sumba and SMP B Merauke, Papua. The data collection technique was through interviews and literature studies which were then analyzed using the interactive analysis technique of Miles and Huberman. This research's results indicate that both schools apply a semi-online learning model to support learning amid limited digital access. SMK N A Waingapu chose to implement a finite face-to-face learning system for students with a weak economy, while SMP B Merauke provided problem modules for students to work on at home. The main obstacle to online learning at the two schools is the digital divide. In addition, SMK N A Waingapu East Sumba and SMP B Merauke also implemented internal policies and took steps to maintain the effectiveness of learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. These steps are the implementation of Circular Letter Number 4 of 2020 concerning the Implementation of Education Policies in the Emergency Period for the Spread of Coronavirus Disease (Covid-19).

Educators' Barriers and Facilitators to Physical Activity Policy Implementation in the Childcare Setting: Qualitative Findings From the Play Active Project.

We explored childcare educators' perceived barriers and facilitators to policy implementation in order to inform the development and implementation of an early childhood education and care (ECEC) specific physical activity policy. This study was part of the Play Active (2019-2023) project which aimed to develop, implement and evaluate evidence-based physical activity policy to improve physical activity levels in children attending ECEC. Stakeholder focus groups. Setting: ECEC centers in Perth, Western Australia. Sample: Educators (n=66) from 11 ECEC centers participated in 13 focus groups (August-September 2019). Semi-structured questions explored educators' perceptions of barriers and facilitators to implementing a new physical activity policy. A qualitative descriptive approach within a naturalistic framework informed data analysis. Focus group data were reviewed and grouped through several iterations to produce core themes. Four core themes resulted from focus groups: (1) leadership; (2) educator mindset: (3) parent engagement; and (4) organisational and educator capacity. Educators needed supportive leadership and a commitment of resources for physical activity policy implementation. Educators acknowledged physical activity practices can be influenced by knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and change capacity and stressed the need for parent engagement for successful implementation. Educators' voices are important for informing implementation of physical activity policy and practices leading to improvements in children's physical activity levels.

Treatment of Gender-Nonconforming Learners in Namibian Schools

This paper aimed at establishing the treatment of gender-nonconforming learners in Namibian schools. The provision of education in Namibia is based on the principles of non-discrimination and equal access to quality education for all as stipulated in the Namibian constitution. Even though there is growing evidence on the mistreatment of gender-nonconforming learners in schools world wide, there is a paucity of literature on the treatment of gender-nonconforming learners in the Namibian education context. This paper employed a case study design as a transformative research method informed by the social identity perspective. One hundred and eighty-two teachers were randomly sampled into the study, and one deputy Director of Special Programs and Schools, one deputy Director of Diagnostic, Assessment and Training Services, one regional school counsellor and one inclusive education officer at the National Institute for Educational Development were purposively sampled. The findings revealed that societal, religious, and cultural beliefs in schools were determinants of how gender-nonconforming learners were treated in some schools. A supplementary framework for the implementation of inclusive education policy (SFIIEP) was developed from the findings of this study. It is recommended that the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture align the SFIIEP to the inclusive education policy implementation to enable open discussion of sex education topics during life skills lessons, creation of supportive learning environments, and establishment of anti-bullying policies with specific measures on curbing homophobic bullying as well as strengthening the psychological support to learners.

A whole university approach to humanitarian migrant and refugee students’ integration: Reflections on the practical implementation of education policies and programmes at Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), in Brazil

Nous analysons comment l’arrivée de migrants avec des visas humanitaires et de réfugiés au Brésil a poussé une université à développer des pratiques de base d’accueil des étudiants et de leurs communautés. Après une première reconnaissance des besoins linguistiques de ce public nouvellement arrivé, l’université, à l’initiative du département de droit, a développé ce que l’on pourrait appeler une approche universitaire holistique d’intégration, basée sur les principes du travail multidisciplinaire et de la recherche-éducation-action. Dans le cadre de cette approche, elle a développé et intégré plusieurs actions visant le développement de diverses littératies, le maintien de la santé et du bien-être émotionnel et l’apport de soutien juridique, grâce à des équipes de travail multidisciplinaires et à la participation d’étudiants et d’éducateurs bénévoles. Dans cette compréhension humaniste du rôle des établissements d’enseignement supérieur dans l’accueil et l’intégration des étudiants migrants et réfugiés, nous discutons des objectifs atteints et des points que nous continuons à considérer comme essentiels pour une meilleure intégration des initiatives multidisciplinaires et pour une offre mieux articulée d’initiatives destinées aux publics universitaire et extra-universitaire.

Covid-related educational policies in action: a system dynamics view

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to adopt a learning-based approach to portray the impact of Covid-19 on state school services in Italy, with a specific focus on the role of street-level bureaucrats and the triggering of co-creative processes.Design/methodology/approachThe study proposes a qualitative system dynamics (or SD) approach describing the implementation of Covid-related educational policies in Italy. An insight model, made of causal loop diagrams, integrates the selected multi-disciplinary literature and institutional sources, secondary data from national and local reports (about Palermo, the fifth largest metropolitan city in Italy) and insights from a panel of school street–level bureaucrats.FindingsThe study provides an insight into the impacts of governmental decisions (school closures and the subsequent need to activate distance learning during the first wave of Covid-19) at a local level. Specifically, it portrays the influences of managerial and professional discretion, infrastructural equipment and socio-economic factors favouring/deterring co-creative educational processes.Practical implicationsThe SD model highlights vicious/virtuous circles in policy implementation and suggests new managerial paths for education, more routed towards public value creation and less attached to bureaucratic procedures and the unquestioning application of performance culture.Originality/valueThe paper proposes an original and holistic approach to dealing with policy making in education and its managerial features. The research findings are considered important, not only to face the current emergency, but also to pro-actively think about the post-Covid era.

The Integration of Information Communication Technology in Education: A Review of Policies and Practices in Angola, South Africa, and Zimbabwe.

The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education has expanded significantly worldwide. Many countries develop Educational ICT policies to promote national agendas for economic, social, and political growth. The implementation of ICT in education is designed to prepare students to assimilate into the global market, attain equal access to education, and to be technologically prepared citizens. Many African governments are therefore developing ICT policies to expand integration of ICTs in primary and secondary education. However, successful integration of ICTs requires concerted efforts across stakeholders, as well as consistency in policy implementation and evaluation. Although several Southern African countries have ICT policy blueprints for education, not much is known about the implementation of the policies on the ground. This study reviews educational ICT policy implementation, successes, and challenges in three Southern African countries: Angola, South Africa, and Zimbabwe.

ADAPTATION OF ADVANCED ANALYTICS IN LATVIAN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

INTRODUCTION
 This study reflects advanced analytics as one of the most important resources for achieving the goals of sustainable education. The OECD points to the trend of increasingly complex education systems in OECD countries. Strategic, long-term thinking and approaches to the management of a complex education system in the context of the future are essential, with regular and targeted evaluation of the functioning of the system using so-called big data. Higher education institutions should be able to adapt to change and be prepared to proactively respond to crises and contingencies. Effective governance of educational institutions requires data collection and analysis, as well as the use of results for further decision-making. For the planning and successful implementation of education policy, it is necessary to increase the competence of the heads of educational institutions in the processing of large data and the ability to perform analytical work at a higher strategic level. Large data processing and analysis, as well as situational forecasting and context mapping require the use of sophisticated and up-to-date tools.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS
 The quantitative survey contains a questionnaire with 40 questions – single choice, multiple choice, text entry, matrix table, constant sum type questions, allowing one to collect wide ranging and structured information. The main blocks are Demographics, Data management, Analytics, Process around data and analytics, People, Technologies, Culture, Leadership, Success drivers, Barriers.
 The data of this study were obtained using the online survey platform Qualtrics. The majority of respondents were attracted using the online panel provider https://intraresearch.com. An additional channel was created to attract respondents on the homepage http://www.raaconsulting.eu/ with the help of Google Ads. For quantitative data processing, the descriptive and statistical analytics R and MS Excel software were used. Mostly descriptive and statistical analyses were used to explore the survey outcome and describe the findings.
 DISCUSSION 
 Some of the key questions to consider in the context of educational sustainability: What is the overall level of advanced analytics in Latvian educational institutions?
 Analysis of literature suitable for the subject of the study reveals that advanced analytics is a process of turning huge volumes of structured or unstructured data, statistical and predictive analytics into decision-making with a value to business. To ensure sustainable decision-making, organisations should use advanced analysis to analyse past, understand current behaviours, and predict and influence future events, actions, decisions, and behaviours. Several studies have shown that to create data-driven decision-making, organisations need to put maximally automated processes in place to manage and utilise all different and fast-moving data from internal and external sources. New approaches, algorithms, tools and platforms help derive meaning from large amounts of unstructured and structured data and techniques that provide so-called advanced analysis. Data, analytics, related tools and the overall analytics ecosystem become more and more crucial topics in any organisation taking high digitisation demand into account.
 CONCLUSIONS
 The authors found that most Latvian educational institutions are not ready for the challenges of turning huge volumes of structured or unstructured data, statistical and predictive analytics into decision-making with a value to the organisation. Advanced analytics is a realistically underestimated tool for the sustainable effective governance of educational institutions.
