Workshop (Health Services, Economics and Policy Change) ID 2012040

Background/Objectives According to the WHO nearly one billion people worldwide live with some form of disability and one fifth of those have significant difficulty functioning as a result. Climate change is a reality and the impacts on healthcare and the care of our communities is significant. From food and water supply, housing emergency preparedness and safety to the effects on our health, climate change has a disproportionate impact on persons with disabilities. The purpose of this workshop is to provide attendees with a review of the issues that climate change has created for persons with disabilities with a focus on traumatic and non-traumatic spinal cord injury. We will then move to a group discussion on what we can do individually and as health systems to address these challenges and make sure the rights and safety of persons with disabilities are protected as we navigate our world with Climate Change. Methods/Overview We will use powerpoint slides, polls and group discussion to explore this topic. Results This workshop will further educate SCI experts nationally/internationally and collect their thoughts and ideas on climate impact on persons with disabilities. Conclusions Our hope is that this information will help inform a more formal position statement from the CSCIRA.

Influence of integration of multimodal writing portfolios into academic writing courses on novice researchers' academic writing

PurposeMultimodal writing portfolios were introduced and integrated into an undergraduate course and a graduate course in a research-oriented university in northwest Taiwan. This study aims to examine the influence of multimodal writing portfolios of novice researchers' academic writing.Design/methodology/approachComparative case studies involve collecting data from several cases and analyzing the similarities, differences and patterns across cases (Merriam, 2009). To address this underdeveloped area of research, a comparative case study method was employed to understand undergraduate and graduate students' multimodal writing portfolios in academic writing in two courses in Taiwan.FindingsFirst, multimodal writing portfolios enabled novice researchers to be more familiar with the structure of academic paper and they had better performance in intrapersonal and linguistic aspects. Second, novice researchers held positive attitude toward multimodal writing portfolios because they regarded process of making multimodal writing portfolios as preparation for their future academic writing. Finally, participants highly valued the class PowerPoint slides, weekly writing tasks and the instructor's modeling as effective facilitation for making multimodal writing portfolios.Research limitations/implicationsLimited studies focus on multimodal writing portfolios (e.g. Silver, 2019). The present case study explores the integration of a multimodal writing portfolio into one undergraduate and one graduate course to explore learners' attitude and performance in academic writing.Practical implicationsNovice researchers can learn to compose multimodal academic texts for the academic writing community.Social implicationsSuggestions on effective integration of multimodal writing portfolios into academic writing instruction were provided based on the research findings.Originality/valueThe findings of the study provide the field of L2 writing with insights into the pedagogical development of multilingual writing portfolios and help educators to be better prepared for teaching novice researchers to comprehend and compose multimodal texts and enter the academic writing community. The framework in Figure 1 and suggestions on course designs for academic writing can inform educators on the integration of multimodality in academic discourse. Moreover, this study moves beyond general writing courses at the tertiary level and could contribute to L2 writers' deeper understanding of how multimodal writing portfolios can be constructed.

Getting to the (Power) Point: Unleashing the Impact of Assertion-Evidence Design in PowerPoint for Enhancing Students’ English Grammatical Competence and Retention

Regardless of the brain’s limited storage capacity, teachers must exercise caution and vigilance in the classroom to prevent overwhelming students with excessive information, as this can impede their learning ability. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of traditional PowerPoint slides and Assertion-Evidence designs in improving grammatical learning among Thai EFL students. Additionally, it seeks to determine the degree to which Assertion-Evidence design based on the cognitive load principle, helps students retain their knowledge of English grammar and explore the perception of students who were given English grammar lessons using Assertion-Evidence design presentations. In this study, 59 students were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group exposed to PowerPoint presentations using the Assertion-Evidence design concept. English tenses pretest, immediate and delayed posttests, a focus group discussion were used as instruments. The results demonstrated that students who received instruction using PowerPoint presentations that followed the Assertion-Evidence design performed significantly better on the posttest for English grammar than those in the control group. Regarding retention, the results revealed that the mean score on the delayed posttest for the participants in English grammar was statistically higher than their immediate posttest score, with a p-value of 0.043 from the dependent sample t- test (p < 0.05). In terms of students’ perceptions, it was discovered that the initial design of Assertion-Evidence format influenced their positive and negative attitude in learning grammar concepts using the Assertion-Evidence format presentation.

Online and Offline Virtual Training Versus Traditional Training on Theoretical Knowledge of Dentistry Students in Primary Tooth Pulp Treatment

Background: Higher education faced difficult conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic after January 2020. In such a situation, education through virtual space was one of the highly important and considerable proposed programs. So far, to our knowledge, no study has compared online and offline virtual education with traditional education in dentistry students. Accordingly, this study compared the efficacy of online and offline virtual training on theoretical knowledge of dentistry students in primary tooth pulp treatment with that of traditional training. Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on dental students who have taken the theoretical pediatrics 2 course in the second half of the academic year 2020-2021. All students were randomly divided into three groups of 20 people, including online and offline virtual training and traditional training (control) groups. Educational contents were delivered to students in the form of an identical PowerPoint for all groups. The PowerPoint slides were prepared and virtual and face-to-face classes were held by the same person (Instructor). In addition, the pre-test and post-test were performed virtually with the same questions (20 questions designed by the instructor). Finally, SPSS-23 was used to describe and analyze the data. Results: The participants were 60 students with an average age of 23±0.48 years, including 42 males (70.0%.). No significant difference was observed among groups in terms of gender, age, grade point average (GPA), and pre-test score (P>0.05). The post-test score was significantly higher than the pre-test score (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in terms of post-test and "post-test-pre-test" scores among the groups (P>0.05). GPA was significantly correlated with the post-test score (P<0.001) and score changes (post-test-pre-test score) (P<0.001). Conclusions: It was found that online and offline virtual education are two suitable alternatives for the traditional education of dental students in the primary teeth pulp treatment course.

Improving Students’ Literacy and Numeracy Using Mobile Game-Based Learning with Augmented Reality in Chemistry and Biology

The purpose of the current study is to enhance students’ literacy and numeracy using mobile game-based learning with augmented reality (ARGBL) in chemistry and biology. In this quasiexperimental design, 714 10th and 11th grade students from five high schools in Indonesia were recruited as participants. To gather the data, the Chemical Literacy and Numeracy Test (C-LNT) and the Biological Literacy and Numeracy Test (B-LNT) were administered to the treatment and control group (CG) students. Quantitative data were then analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. The results highlighted that the treatment group students who were instructed using ARGBL had higher literacy and numeracy scores than the comparison group students who were taught using PowerPoint (PPT) slides. This indicates that ARGBL is effective in promoting literacy and numeracy among high school students in chemistry and biology. Thus, we suggest teachers apply ARGBL to elevate students’ literacy and numeracy to a satisfactory level.

Pemberian Edukasi Nutrisi Balita

Introduction: Stunting is a prevalent problem in early childhood development, characterized by impaired growth and height at an age below the standard threshold. Addressing stunting in the first 1000 days of life is critical to preventing long-term consequences for physical and cognitive development.
 Objective: The aim of this community service was to improve the awareness and health of the Sokaraja. This study aims to explore and evaluate the impact of nutrition interventions on stunted children under five.
 Methods: The method implemented to overcome the problem of stunting in children is by conducting direct counseling on Saturday, July 8, 2023, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The target audience is mothers at Posyandu Harapan 3, Sokaraja, with 30 participants. Then, using lecture and discussion methods with media and PowerPoint slides about toddler nutrition and leaflets about the importance of toddler nutrition, demonstrate cooking foods that contain nutrients and protein. The counseling process was conducted personally for about an hour.
 Results: The results are three age categories of children who have different heights and weights. First, children aged 0–1 years have an average height of 68.8 cm and an average weight of 9.5 kg. Second, children aged 2–3 years have an average height of 84.7 cm and an average weight of 11.5 kg. Third, children aged 3-5 years have an average height of 96.1 cm and an average weight of 15.7 kg.
 Conclusion: Nutrition counseling activities are well organized. There is an increase in mothers' knowledge about toddler nutrition and stunting.

Governing healthcare: the uses and limits of governmentality in the National Health Service in England

Using examples from the National Health Service in England, this paper illustrates key features of contemporary healthcare governance: the way decisions are hidden in places that are ‘in between’ and ‘out of reach’; the enrolment of doctors in governing; and the important role played by ‘boring things’, such as power point slides, flow charts, and forms. The essay shows how anthropological proximity and perspectives can extend and deepen understanding of contemporary political power. It does this firstly by showing the importance of agency in the operation of governmentality, and secondly by illuminating the limits of governmentality. The different elements of governing assemblages, such as global management experts, medical leaders, forms of knowledge and analytical technologies, are brought together through the strategic act of framing. Frames are contested and resisted, requiring more visible forms of control.

I am a scientist: Overcoming biased assumptions around diversity in science through explicit representation of scientists in lectures.

The lack of diversity in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) is a significant issue for the sector. Many organisations and educators have identified lack of representation of historically marginalised groups within teaching materials as a potential barrier to students feeling that a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) career is something that they can aspire to. A key barrier to addressing the issue is providing accessible and effective evidence-based approaches for educators to implement. In this study, we explore the potential for adapting presentation slides within lectures to 'humanise' the scientists involved, presenting their full names and photographs alongside a Harvard style reference. The intervention stems from an initial assumption that many formal scientific referencing systems are demographic-neutral and exacerbate prevailing perceptions that STEM is not diverse. We adopt a questionnaire based methodology surveying 161 bioscience undergraduates and postgraduates at a UK civic university. We first establish that students project assumptions about the gender, location, and ethnicity of the author of a hypothetical reference, with over 50% of students assuming they are male and Western. We then explore what students think of the humanised slide design, concluding that many students see it as good pedagogical practice with some students positively changing their perceptions about diversity in science. We were unable to compare responses by participant ethnic group, but find preliminary evidence that female and non-binary students are more likely to see this as good pedagogical practice, perhaps reflecting white male fragility in being exposed to initiatives designed to highlight diversity. We conclude that humanised powerpoint slides are a potentially effective tool to highlight diversity of scientists within existing research-led teaching, but highlight that this is only a small intervention that needs to sit alongside more substantive work to address the lack of diversity in STEM.

Increasing Community Knowledge in Efforts to Prevent Covid-19 Disease in Rural Areas

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. COVID-19 has greatly affected human life, especially in the health sector. It is important that in this very emergency situation, to maintain the health of the people themselves, they must pay attention to their own health. thus, this prevention can be carried out in ways that have been recommended by the government, namely social distancing, washing hands, and using masks when traveling. The development of irresponsible issues can become an important problem in the COVID-19 outbreak control program in rural areas. The lack of knowledge and understanding of the population regarding valid information about the Corona virus agent can have a big social impact. This community service was carried out with training for health cadres in Silo Village, Silo District, attended by 30 cadres. The training material is in the form of Power Point slides, followed by training with simulations of correct recording and reporting regarding the early detection of COVID-19 events in the community. The results of this community service activity showed an increase in public knowledge about efforts to prevent transmission of COVID-19. This activity is effective for increasing village community knowledge in efforts to prevent COVID-19. It is hoped that the community can continue to carry out programs on preventing COVID-19.

Pemberian Pendidikan Kesehatan dengan CERDIK menggunakan Media Slide Power Point dan Leaflet tentang Pencegahan Hipertensi

Background: Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death, accounting for 73% of all deaths globally. It is expected that the increase in NCD fatalities will continue as a result of detrimental changes in human and environmental behavior. Hypertension is a highly prevalent NCD condition. One thing that may be done to prevent NCDs is to provide relevant information about disease prevention and control. CERDIK can be used to provide information in the form of health education. Media is required for health education so that information can be delivered and accepted well by participants. Purpose: The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge of the elderly using leaflets on preventing hypertension with CERDIK. Methods: This community service was carried out by providing health education in the Sukorame Region, Bantul, on October 26, 2022. The target community members who attended were old adults and the elderly, totaling 52 people. Providing health education is carried out using the lecture method with the help of PowerPoint slides and media leaflets about preventing hypertension with CERDIK. Results: The average knowledge of the target community about preventing hypertension after being given health education was 86.5%; this was included in the category of good knowledge (76%–100%). Conclusion: By increasing the knowledge of the elderly about hypertension prevention using the CERDIK method, it is hoped that it can empower the elderly to be able to detect and control the hypertension they experience early.

An English Writing Materials Analysis Through Microlearning Skill Views

Microlearning is a short-term learning strategy that can increase students' interest in learning. It is in line with the characteristics of today's students who cannot focus on learning for long periods of time. The study was conducted at three senior high schools in Bogor, Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze microlearning in writing English learning materials for the tenth grader. This research employed a content analysis approach. The data sources are learning materials from two student books from two publishers that refer to Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar as well as additional learning materials developed by teachers such as PowerPoint slides, explainer videos, and infographics. Interviews with three English teachers were also conducted. The result of the study showed that the microlearning features in each unit are not entirely satisfied, although numerous media have been found in a short amount of time, there are still certain components that have not been addressed. The study suggested that to improve students' writing English learning experiences, book writers and teachers should emphasize microlearning aspects and critical thinking skills more in learning materials.

 Conclusion: Educational intervention based on improving the knowledge, attitude, and practice of school children is an effective strategy to address the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance.

Carga cognitiva y retención de información mediante 2 técnicas de video en un aula invertida: estudio aleatorizado controlado

IntroductionLong-term information retrieval, based on the cognitive load derived from the instructional design for the delivery of information, is poorly understood. This study aims to compare the magnitude of three types of cognitive load (intrinsic, extraneous, and germane) and the retention of information generated by two video formats used in the virtual component of an inverted classroom: conventional (PowerPoint slides, Microsoft Corp) and non-conventional (Lightboard). MethodsIn this experimental study, 320 medical students were randomly assigned to one of the two formats. Cognitive load was evaluated at the end of the intervention using validated questionnaires. Immediate retention of information and retention at three and six months was assessed through multiple choice questions. ResultsThe germane load generated by the non-conventional format was significantly higher (p < 0.05). No differences were identified in overall, intrinsic, and extraneous load. Information retrieval was higher in the third month with the conventional format, but not differences were identified at the sixth month of follow-up. ConclusionsThe magnitude of the three types of cognitive load and the retention of information is similar when students interact with conventional and non-conventional formats for presenting information.

Use of Self-Study Resources Among Medical Students-Towards Avoiding Death by PowerPoint.

Reliance on PowerPoint (PPT) slides for self-studying may encourage lower-order cognition due to learning by rote dominating the educational process. On anecdotal evidence, PPT slides have become ubiquitous among Saudi medical students as the chief format of self-study material. We present the scale of the problem in Saudi medical colleges and then discuss the relevant potential implications and remedies. Using a piloted, face-validated, web-based, and self-administered questionnaire, we asked 379 medical students from 22 Saudi medical colleges to answer a few questions related to the use of PPT slides (and other resources) to self-study in preparation for the pediatric course final exam. By far, PPT slides represented the dominant format of self-study resources for most students (n = 359; 94.7%). One-third of students (n = 115; 30.3%) reported they had never or only rarely to occasionally used their basic pediatric textbooks for self-study. Most students (n = 260; 68.6%) reported that > 80% of the final written exam questions stemmed from the PPT slides provided by lecturers. As this study's result underscores the notion that PPT slides have become the customary primary self-study material used by Saudi medical students, we tried to discuss the associated threats to learning and teaching and suggest practical solutions.

AI aided workflow for hip dysplasia screening using ultrasound in primary care clinics

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a common cause of premature osteoarthritis. This osteoarthritis can be prevented if DDH is detected by ultrasound and treated in infancy, but universal DDH screening is generally not cost-effective due to the need for experts to perform the scans. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the feasibility of having non-expert primary care clinic staff perform DDH ultrasound using handheld ultrasound with artificial intelligence (AI) decision support. We performed an implementation study evaluating the FDA-cleared MEDO-Hip AI app interpreting cine-sweep images obtained from handheld Philips Lumify probe to detect DDH. Initial scans were done by nurses or family physicians in 3 primary care clinics, trained by video, powerpoint slides and brief in-person. When the AI app recommended follow-up (FU), we first performed internal FU by a sonographer using the AI app; cases still considered abnormal by AI were referred to pediatric orthopedic clinic for assessment. We performed 369 scans in 306 infants. Internal FU rates were initially 40% for nurses and 20% for physicians, declining steeply to 14% after ~ 60 cases/site: 4% technical failure, 8% normal at sonographer FU using AI, and 2% confirmed DDH. Of 6 infants referred to pediatric orthopedic clinic, all were treated for DDH (100% specificity); 4 had no risk factors and may not have otherwise been identified. Real-time AI decision support and a simplified portable ultrasound protocol enabled lightly trained primary care clinic staff to perform hip dysplasia screening with FU and case detection rates similar to costly formal ultrasound screening, where the US scan is performed by a sonographer and interpreted by a radiologist/orthopedic surgeon. This highlights the potential utility of AI-supported portable ultrasound in primary care.
