Community Health Worker Employer Survey: Perspectives on CHW Workforce Development in the Midwest.

A statewide Community Health Worker Employer Survey was administered to various clinical, community, and faith-based organizations (n = 240) across a range of rural and urban settings in the Midwest. At least 80% of participants agreed or strongly agreed that items characterized as supervisory support were present in their work environment. Thirty-six percent of respondents currently employed CHWs, over half (51%) of survey respondents reported seeing the need to hire/work with more CHWs, and 44% saw the need for CHWs increasing in the future. Regarding CHW support, a majority of respondents indicated networking opportunities (63%), paid time for networking (80%), adequate time for supervision (75%), orientation training (78%), mandatory training (78%), ongoing training (79%), and paid time for training (82%). Open-ended responses to the question "In your organization, what needs could CHWs meet?" resulted in the largest number of respondents reporting mental health issues as a priority, followed by connecting people with services or resources, educating the public on preventive health, family support, and home care/visitations. Our findings suggest that respondents, who largely have supervisory or managerial roles, view workplace environments in Nebraska favorably, despite the fact that nearly two-thirds of respondents typically work well over 40h per week. In addition, CHWs could help address mental and physical health needs in a variety of community and clinical settings through primary and secondary prevention activities, such as provision of health screenings, health and nutrition education, connecting people to resources and empowering community members through these activities and more.

Low vision services: a practical guide for the clinician.

Low vision has been defined by best-corrected visual acuity worse than 20/40 in the better eye, substantial visual field loss, or substantial loss of contrast sensitivity that cannot be corrected by refraction, medical treatment, or surgery. In the United States, low vision is most commonly caused by age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. Most patients with low vision are elderly, although patients of all ages – including pediatric patients – may be affected. Low vision may decrease a patient’s quality of life substantially, leading to emotional distress and possibly depression. Low vision specialists aim to maximize the remaining vision of a patient by providing optical aids, orientation and mobility training, psychosocial support, and other methods of rehabilitation. Innovations in technology and devices offer additional options in low vision rehabilitation. Clinicians should consider referral to low vision specialists when a patient has difficulty with reading, mobility, driving, recognizing faces, or suffers from emotional distress due to low vision. Early referral may lead to improved outcomes.

GRAFİK TASARIM EĞİTİMİ ALAN ÖĞRENCİ VE KURSİYERLERİN YASAL VE ETİK AÇIDAN ÖĞRENMELERİ GEREKEN BİLGİLERİN YAPILANDIRILMASI

Rapid expansion of computer technology and software, which has been serving the printing, publishing and advertising sectors since the early 1990s in our country has brought a very different dimension to the traditional graphic production system. This new mode of production, where artistic skill as well as technological skill are important, has begun to take its place in every corner of the country. In the following years, departments were opened in courses, secondary education institutions and universities to meet the growing need for graphics. The lack of infrastructure of the educational institutions opened to meet the demand of the industry caused the inadequate artistic and technically inadequate graduation of the incoming students to be taken without an artistic test. We can still say that this situation still continues today. The graphic designer with inadequate equipment is immediately self-evident, especially in works of artistic dimension. It can be imitated or intensely inspired in order to respond to the order when it is difficult or big work to be done. Without knowing their legal boundaries, or deliberately choosing a way to imitate, both the self and the institution they design can be criminalized in legal terms. Today in the courts we can say that there are many cases of defendants in these matters. The chief responsible for such a situation is the graphic designer. It is a criminal offender who does not know when he or she does not know the legal responsibilities as well as the legal penalty. In the study, the concepts that should be known ethically and legally in the graphic design working system and the subjects are discussed in the context of orientation training for students who are taking graphics education.

Enhancing Allocentric Spatial Recall in Pre-schoolers through Navigational Training Programme.

Unlike for other abilities, children do not receive systematic spatial orientation training at school, even though navigational training during adulthood improves spatial skills. We investigated whether navigational training programme (NTP) improved spatial orientation skills in pre-schoolers. We administered 12-week NTP to seventeen 4- to 5-year-old children (training group, TG). The TG children and 17 age-matched children (control group, CG) who underwent standard didactics were tested twice before (T0) and after (T1) the NTP using tasks that tap into landmark, route and survey representations. We determined that the TG participants significantly improved their performances in the most demanding navigational task, which is the task that taps into survey representation. This improvement was significantly higher than that observed in the CG, suggesting that NTP fostered the acquisition of survey representation. Such representation is typically achieved by age seven. This finding suggests that NTP improves performance on higher-level navigational tasks in pre-schoolers.

Using Gamification to Improve Productivity and Increase Knowledge Retention During Orientation.

Nursing administrators must provide cost-effective and efficient ways of orientation training. Traditional methods including classroom lecture can be costly with low retention of the information. Gamification engages the user, provides a level of enjoyment, and uses critical thinking skills. The aim of this study is to explore the effectiveness, during orientation, of 3 different teaching methods: didactic, online modules, and gamification. Specifically, is there a difference in nurses' clinical knowledge postorientation using these learning approaches? A quasi-experimental study design with a 115-person convenience sample split nurses into 3 groups for evaluation of clinical knowledge before and after orientation. The gamification orientation group had the highest mean scores postorientation compared with the didactic and online module groups. Findings demonstrate gamification as an effective way to teach when compared with more traditional methods. Staff enjoy this type of learning and retained more knowledge when using gaming elements.

INTEREST TEST AS AN INSTRUMENT IN THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL ORIENTATION

The present situation in Georgia brings new challenges and priorities to all areas of life in society. The challenges and priorities reveal many problems, particularly, new forms of structure of education and labour mobility, economy, employability, new occupations and qualifications, increased unemployment especially among young people, impact of demographic trends on labour supply, economic and migration policy, multicultural environment. Their solution also requires putting greater emphasis on the quality of education and vocational training. It is also significant is to improve educational opportunities at all levels, ensure the adaptation of skilled labour, raise awareness on existing trends at labour market. Nowadays, vocational training still remains to be an unattractive and undesirable field in Georgia as in a post-Soviet Country. According to EUVEGE, the proportion of 20-24-year-old people representing the majority of students enrolling in vocational training organizations is only 1.19%. (EU Technical Assistance to VET and Employment Reforms in Georgia, 2016). Despite the high rate of unemployment in Georgia, companies have difficulty in filling job openings, as skills of unemployed young people do not meet the requirements of labour market. Growing demands for skilled workers cannot be met by vocational education. Most young people are either university graduates with different professional skills, or untrained workers. And the percentage of those between these two areas is very low. In order to ensure harmonization of requirements of the labour market in Georgia and the interests of unemployed young people and private sector, a paradigm shift is needed in various aspects, which is directly related to both vocational orientation and vocational training. For this, however, one should promote transition between schools and economy. Such transition may be provided by professional advice.
