Usefulness and challenges with blended learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in Ghana: The mediating role of human resource factors

This study examined the usefulness and challenges of blended learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in Ghana: the mediating role of human resource factors. The study used the explanatory study design from the quantitative approach to gather data from 138 out of 285 postgraduate facilitators on the distance mode. The data collection instrument was self-administered questionnaires and analysis of the data was done with mean and standard deviation as well as Parital Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling. The study found that even though online facilitation was rated higher by facilitators as compared to face-to-face interaction, the facilitators indicated the need for blended learning to minimise challenges associated with either dedicated online facilitation or face-to-face interaction. It was also found that there was a significant relationship between challenges with face-to-face interaction and prospects with online learning, challenges with online learning and prospects for face-to-face interaction. Both remuneration and retrenchment significantly mediated the relationship between challenges with online and blended facilitations. While training significantly mediated the relationship between prospects of online and blended facilitations; work relations failed to achieve a significant mediation influence on the relationship between the prospect of online and blended facilitations. It was recommended that management and human resource managers of postgraduate educational institutions should pay attention to three main human resource factors such as remunerations, training, and retrenchment among facilitators in ensuring smooth running and progress with blended learning within the context of a developing economy.

Spiritual-value guidelines in the educational process: the way to a mature self-concept

The educational process in modern conditions requires not only a high level of professional knowledge and skills from teachers, but also the presence of a mature self - concept based on spiritual and value orientations. This issue becomes particularly relevant today as teachers are seen as agents of change who can influence the future of society. The article under review is devoted to the study of the role of spiritual and value orientations in the formation of a mature self - concept among teachers. In the context of modern social and cultural changes, special attention is paid to developing a harmonious and spiritually mature personality. The analysis of previous studies in this area revealed unresolved aspects, which have become the subject of the current research. The problem of spiritual and value orientations of teachers as a pathway to a mature self - concept is thoroughly explored. For the empirical study, a sample of 420 individuals was formed. These individuals were taking advanced training courses at the Central Institute of Postgraduate Education of the state higher education institution «University of Management of Education» of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in Kyiv. The author's method «The Value of Self - сreation» was utilized in the research, aimed at studying the spiritual and valuable component of the teachers' self - concept. Additionally, the unconditional self - acceptance questionnaire by J. Chamberlain and D. Haaga (2001), adapted by O. Bondarchuk, N. Pinchuk, and O. Prokopenko, was used. The survey was conducted using Google forms. The study's results highlight the importance of spiritual and value orientations in developing a mature self - concept among teachers. The study also points to the need for further scientific exploration in this area to gain a more detailed understanding of the relationship between spiritual values and the professional activities of teachers.

Outcomes from Early Experience with Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair Versus Open Technique: Navigating the learning curve.

This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) regarding postoperative pain, recurrence rates, duration of hospital stay and other postoperative outcomes within the context of a tertiary care teaching hospital in South India, and the initial experience of laparoscopic repairs. The current consensus in the literature often suggests LIHR as superior to open inguinal hernia repair (OIHR). This single-centre, retrospective, observational study was conducted at the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Education and Research, Puducherry, India, from January 2011 to September 2020. All patients who underwent elective OIHR and LIHR were included. Data on the patients demographics, comorbidities, hernia type, mesh characteristics, surgery duration, hospital stay and immediate postoperative complications were collected and analysed. A total of 2,690 OIHR and 158 LIHR cases were identified. The demographic profiles, hospital stay and complication rates were similar in both groups. However, surgical site infection was present exclusively in the OIHR group (3.55% versus 0.0%; P <0.05). The timeline for returning to normal activities was statistically shorter for the LIHR group (6 versus 8 days; P <0.05). The most frequent immediate complication in the LIHR group was subcutaneous emphysema (6.54% versus 0.0%; P <0.05). Recurrence (9.23% versus 3.61%; P = 0.09) and chronic pain (41.53% versus 13.55%; P <0.05) were higher in the LIHR group. Lower recurrence and chronic pain rates were observed with OIHR in the initial experience with LIHR in the hospital. However, LIHR had significant advantages concerning faster patient recovery and lower rates of surgical site infections. While the results contribute an interesting deviation from the standard narrative, they should be interpreted within the context of a learning curve associated with the early experience of the research team with LIHR.

Research of the Problems of Professional Support for Teachers in the Implementation of Inclusive Education

Professional support for teachers plays a crucial role in the implementation of inclusive education. In the study, the concept of “professional support for teachers” refers to the existence of close social ties between the administration (school principal and his deputies), colleagues, parents of children with SEN, and teachers of postgraduate pedagogical education institutions, who are the main resource for professional support. The aim of the study was to identify current problems of professional support for teachers of inclusive education in a general secondary education institution. It is established that the administration of the institution is mainly interested in the formation of additional competencies of teachers. The problems in which teachers need professional support are identified, in particular: increasing incentives to work with children with SEN; involving special educators in the provision of correctional and developmental services; providing funding for institutions to create an inclusive educational environment; conducting educational work with parents to form adequate expectations of their children; providing teachers with practical advice on minimizing unwanted behavior and modifying educational material for children with intellectual difficulties and autism spectrum disorders. It was found that the activity and motivation of parents of children with SEN to cooperate plays an exceptional role in providing support to teachers.

Talent-management as an innovative strategy of corporate training and development of personnel of an educational organization

The article presents the results of a study of the possibilities of introducing an innovative strategy of corporate training and staff development — talent management - into the educational sphere. A brief theoretical review of scientific sources on the problem under study has led to the conclusion that talent management is a human resources strategy that focuses on attracting, developing and retaining the best employees. It is of particular importance for educational organizations, as the qualifications and experience of teachers are an important factor in the quality of education received by students. Based on the content analysis of scientific papers, the author concludes that the implementation of the concept of talent management in an educational organization involves identifying the key competencies of the organization, creating favorable working conditions, investing in staff development, and developing a staff motivation system. According to the author, the implementation of talent management will help to find effective responses to the challenges facing education: overcoming the skills shortage, improving educational outcomes, taking into account technological progress, promoting diversity and inclusion, navigating regulatory changes, fostering leadership and succession planning, and creating sustainable and flexible human capital. An attempt is also made to confirm the author’s theoretical considerations with the results of a survey of pedagogical and scientific and pedagogical staff of Borys Grinchenko Kyiv Metropolitan University and the responses of a focus group of educational managers of different levels who have completed advanced training at the Department of Professional and Higher Education of the Central Institute of Postgraduate Education of the University of Educational Management. The study has actualized the need to explore innovative ways of developing talents in the field of education, taking into account the essential features of the educational sphere, social expectations from the results of its activities, requirements for professionalism and competence of a modern teacher

FEATURES OF PREVENTIVE MEASURES FOR DENTAL PROSTHETICS SUPPORTED BY DENTAL IMPLANTS

Main goal increasing the effectiveness of orthopedic treatment and prolonging the period of use of fixed dental prostheses based on dental implants through the use of supportive therapy of peri-implant tissues.&#x0D; Material and methods. The research was carried out at the Department of Stomatology of the Institute of Postgraduate Education of the Bogomolets National Medical University and at the Department of Dentistry of the Shupyk National Healthcare University of Ukraine.&#x0D; We observed 55 people aged from 30 to 59 years, of which 22 men and 33 women with included defects of the lateral areas of the tooth rows, who were made artificial crowns supported by dental implants. 27 persons (group I) underwent dental implantation after traditional sanitation of the oral cavity and professional oral hygiene. Individuals of the II group, in the number of 28, were additionally prescribed a treatmentprophylactic complex, which included professional oral hygiene, photodynamic therapy of peri-implant tissues, which was applied before the application and during the use of orthopedic structures based on dental implants, and prescribed quertin and quercitin. The control group (III group) included 12 people of the same age group with intact dentitions and physiological forms of bite, who had intact dentitions without clinically diagnosed periodontal tissue diseases and teeth affected by the carious process.&#x0D; Results. Prosthetics of a group of patients with the appointment of sessions of supportive photodynamic therapy, which is applied before application and during the use of orthopedic structures with support on dental implants, in comparison with the results of prosthetics without any supportive therapy of peri-implant tissues, indicate an improvement in the hygienic state of the oral cavity, a decrease in inflammatory dystrophic changes of peri-implant tissues, the period of use of orthopedic structures, which allows to avoid recession of the gingival margin in the peri-implant area, reduce the risks of bone tissue dehiscence and, accordingly, prolong the period of use of non-removable orthopedic structures.&#x0D; Conclusions. The use of dental prostheses based on dental implants, due to the retention properties of the design, contributes to the deterioration of oral hygiene and, accordingly, the formation of a biofilm with the phenomenon of "Quorum Sensing", which requires the use of professional oral hygiene and photodynamic maintenance therapy. Prescribing sessions of photodynamic maintenance therapy, before applying and during the period of use of orthopedic structures, helps to improve the hygienic condition of the oral cavity, reduce inflammatory and dystrophic changes of periapical tissues during the period of use of orthopedic structures, which makes it possible to extend the period of use of orthopedic structures.

ADVANCED TRAINING IN POSTGRADUATE EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN THE CONDITIONS OF MARTIAL LAW

The article focuses on the need to meet the needs of public sector professionals in acquiring new knowledge and skills through the proposals of educational service providers in the field of vocational training under the legal regime of martial law. It is established that under the legal regime of martial law, postgraduate education institutions providing professional training, in particular, advanced training of public servants, continue to operate fully despite various restrictions on the organization of operational activities. They are free to choose the forms, methods and means of training that correspond to the professional development programs. For most postgraduate education institutions, distance learning became the only available form in the system of professional development of civil servants in 2022. Based on the analysis of the Poltava Regional Center for Professional Development, it can be stated that the number of educational events, groups of participants, and the number of participants in professional training has increased. In 2022, vocational training was mainly provided to local government officials and civil servants of regional and district state (military) administrations, and the number of participants in vocational training decreased compared to the pre-war year. The task of providing professional information and explanatory support on topical issues of public service under martial law was a companion to educational services for postgraduate education institutions. The high quality of educational services of postgraduate education institutions can be ensured by expanding the range of educational services in the field of professional training of officials with the simultaneous introduction of innovative educational technologies, various forms and methods of teaching, and wider involvement of practicing teachers, representatives and experts of civil society institutions. Priority areas of training should be determined by the needs of customers of educational services for professional development.
