Жыццё Аляксандры Мамонькі (Сташкевіч) у міжваеннай Празе (1921–1929)

The Life of Alexandra Mamonka (Stashkevich) in the Interwar Prague (1921–1929) The study of the biography of a particular person contributes to clarifying the idea of an emigrant, an emigrant hero, who, on the one hand, acts as an initiator of social changes, and on the other hand, is a hostage of historical events. From this point of view, the everyday life of Aleksandra Stanislavovna Mamonka (Stashkevich) (1899–?) – the wife of the famous Belarusian public and political figure Yazep Alekseevich Mamonka (1889–1937) is difficult in itself (a short life together with her husband, household unsettlement and vain hopes for a career and recognition) and difficult to research due to insufficient source base. Most of the information about the woman dates back to the 1920s. It is about the arrival of the Mamonka family to Prague; studies of Aleksandra Mamonka as a free listener at the music and pedagogical faculty of the Ukrainian Higher Pedagogical Institute named after M. Dragomanov in Prague; the political activity of Yazep and his expulsion from the ranks of students of the Ukrainian Agricultural Academy in Podebrady; Alexandra Stanislavovna's friendship with Sophia Fyodorovna Rusova's daughter (1856–1940) – Lyubov Lindfors (1886–1962); Alexandra Stanislavovna's attempts to find herself in opera singing.

A Multi-Year Study of First-Year Engineering Student Well-being at a Large Canadian University

A five-year study into student well-being at a large Canadian university is presented. Through weekly surveys tracking student well-being with the Short Warwick Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEBMWS), a gradual but persistent drop in student well-being over the academic year is consistently observed. Average well-being on WEBMWS over the five years corresponds to students feeling optimistic, useful, relaxed, etc. “some of the time,” and is consistent from year to year. Student rankings of key stressors each week reveal academics (high grades, workload, competitive program entry, and passing) dominate concerns, while stressors related to transitioning to first-year university are an order of magnitude less prevalent. Clear and statistically significant differences are noted between different student groups, with men tending to report better well-being than both women and non-binary students, with international students reporting slightly better well-being than Canadian students, and students with a mental disability reporting lower well-being than those without.

Involvement of interactive educational platforms in the training of graphic design students using the Figma platform as an example

The goal is to provide a rationale for choosing the optimal prototyping and UI/UX design software for teaching design students. The purpose of writing this paper is to determine the optimal tools for teaching UI/UX design students through interactive educational platforms. The research uses the methods of cross-multiple-iteration expert ranking, personal ranking of students, and comparative cross-analysis of the results of expert and user ranking. The ranking results confirmed the choice of tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, InVision, Sketch, and Marvel. The users’ conclusions agree with the experts’ evaluations. Still, the analysis revealed a significant difference in approaches: the gap in user evaluations is 84.6% versus 32.0% for experts, indicating the influence of user empathy and the importance of UI/UX in product perception. Figma was selected as a tool for prototyping and UI/UX design with a median rating of 57.2%, justifying its use in interactive educational programs for future designers, contributing to the development of skilled digital production specialists. Further research is focused on developing detailed educational courses for design students, as well as studying the empathic component of experience for creating ergonomic interfaces.

Évolution du choix de la médecine interne (et immunologie clinique) à l’issue des épreuves classantes nationales depuis 2010

Introduction: The 2017 reform of the third cycle of medical studies (R3C) was accompanied by modifications in the formats and number of specialty diplomas. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution of the choice of the internal medicine and clinical immunology specialty before and after 2017.Methods: We used the median ranking and its evolution, as well as incoming and outgoing remorse rights, as markers of attractiveness. Data on the number of position offered, rankings and affectation were collected from decrees published in the French “Journal Officiel” each year. A survey conducted by the “Amicale des Jeunes Internistes” investigated the reasons for the outgoing or incoming rights to remorse.Results: Before 2017, internal medicine was accessible to 52% of students on average, with a median rank of 1118 [339-2640]. From 2017 onwards, the internal medicine specialty was accessible to an average of 76.6% of students, with a median rank of 2772 [1039-5155]. The balance of incoming and outgoing remorse rights was -4.7% before 2017 and varied between -4.1 and -12.4% from 2017.Conclusion: Since 2017, the median and cut-off ranks of students choosing internal medicine specialty have increased, and balance of incoming and outgoing remorse rights was increasingly negative. A reflection on the attractiveness of the internal medicine specialty is undertaken by the National College of Internal Medicine Teachers in order to make the richness of the specialty and its different modes of practice known to future residents.

Predictive analytics of student performance: Multi-method and code

The maintenance of a high level of education in universities can be a challenging task due to low academic performance. Despite the significant amount of collected diagnostic data, education managers underutilize machine learning methods to improve the accuracy of predicting academic performance. Authors apply a multi-method approach for data analysis using simple logistic and linear regressions, k-means clustering, that all together gave a synergetic effect. The proposed approach differs from known analogs in that, firstly, the dimensionality of the feature space increases due to the normalization of scores onto a single scale and the creation of new features: the index and rank of students, as well as the changes in performance across various activities for each student. Secondly, students at academic risk are forecasted, and the statistical significance of the features included in the model is evaluated. Thirdly, for each student, the final score for the semester is forecasted using an linear regressive model of academic performance. Fourthly, groups of students with similar learning trajectories are identified for customization of consultations. The authors managed to achieve a high predictive ability of models based on historical training data: binary prediction of exam passing in 90% of cases, prediction of individual assessment in 70% of cases.

Contextual Conversational Intelligence : Leveraging Language Models For College Chatbot By Retrieval Augmented Generation

By harnessing the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLM), the proposed system evolves into a sophisticated conversational agent, capable of understanding nuanced user inputs, providing context-aware responses, and delivering an unparalleled level of engagement. This chatbot is also equipped to assess a student's likelihood of being accepted into a specific program at the college using a machine learning (ML) model. The model analyzes the student's rank and eligible quota (such as reserved categories) in conjunction with historical admission data to gauge their chances of acceptance. It also recommends alternative programs where the student may have a better chance of admission based on their rank. The chatbot also features a smart Applicant Tracking System (ATS) that assists students in evaluating their resumes. This system provides keyword matching suggestions based on job descriptions and generates an overview of the resume. Additionally, it highlights areas for improvement and highlights the resume's distinctiveness. The methodology involves the development and deployment of a website chat bot integrated with Lang Chain, with the potential of advanced language models in transforming website chat bot interactions using Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) technique to ground LLM to generate responses to user queries based on a custom knowledge-base. Key Words: Chatbot, Generative AI, Large Langauge Model, Website, Machine Learning, Retrieval-augmented generation , Web scrapping , Resume , ATS.

Penentuan mahasiswa berprestasi menggunakan algoritma FP-Growth dan SAW

This research discusses the importance of utilizing technology in inventory management and student achievement determination. The transformation from manual systems to computerized systems has proven to increase efficiency and accuracy. In determining outstanding students, the criteria used often focus solely on academic aspects, neglecting other skills such as leadership and creativity. This study proposes the use of the FP-Growth and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) algorithms to address this issue. FP-Growth is used to identify high-frequency patterns in student achievement data, while SAW assigns weights to each criterion variable for more accurate decision-making. The criteria for assessment include GPA, student achievements, study duration, and activity participation. The implementation is expected to provide a more effective solution in determining outstanding students and managing inventory. The FP-Growth method helps identify significant patterns in transaction data, while SAW assists in ranking alternatives based on specified criteria. This research demonstrates that the combination of these two algorithms can improve accuracy and efficiency in inventory management and student achievement determination, providing a competitive advantage for institutions. Based on the research results, the ranking of outstanding students is led by student C, followed by student B, with respective scores of 0.8875 and 0.825.

Analysis of Student Problem-Solving Skills on Static Fluid Topics

Abstract Finding high school students’ Problem-Solving Skills (PSS) on static fluid is the aim of this study. A sample of 125 students from a high school in East Java, Indonesia, was employed in this quantitative study employing a survey methodology. The Problem-Solving Skills Test (Cronbarch’s Alpha reliability of 0.66), which consists of six essay questions with a scoring range of 1 to 5, was used to collect the study data. The research data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The average PSS of the students according to the research results was 20.54 with the conversion of the PSS Test score to a scale of 0-100, placing them in the beginner category. According to the PSS indicators, the rank of students from highest to lowest level is Useful Description, Specific Application of Physics, Mathematical Procedures, Physics Approach, and Logical Progression. Students find that Archimedes’ Law, Pascal’s Law, and Hydrostatic Pressure are the most difficult static fluid subtopic to go through. It is highly recommended that learning methods that can support students’ problem-solving skills, such as project-based learning in conjunction with Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM), provide them with the skills to use logic in their thinking when solving problems.

Challenges and strategies for navigating Australian healthcare access: experience from Chinese international students

BackgroundAustralia hosts over 680,000 international students, contributing $47.8 billion to the Australian economy in 2023, and Chinese students rank first among all nationalities. However, despite their considerable numbers, research focusing on their access to healthcare services is scant. This study aimed to explore barriers and supports regarding the utilisation of healthcare services among Chinese international students studying in Australia.MethodsSemi-structured interviews were conducted in Chinese between October and December 2023 with 25 Chinese international students (age range, 19–30; female/male, n = 18/7; undergraduate/postgraduate/doctoral, n = 1/18/6) enrolled in three Australian universities to understand the healthcare challenges they encountered and the coping strategies they recommended. These interviews were recorded, and thematic analysis was applied to the interview data. An adapted social-ecological model was used to identify barriers and pragmatic strategies to deal with the challenges at different levels.ResultsChinese international students in Australia faced healthcare barriers at different levels. Individual barriers included language and cultural disparities, lack of knowledge about the healthcare system, and reluctance to seek help. Institutional barriers involved high costs, difficulties regarding appointments, and procedures related to the referral system. Policy barriers included insurance coverage and reimbursement issues. The students interviewed for this study proposed individual-level strategies, such as trying various methods to reduce language barriers, seeking information online, and using online resources and consultations. A central appointment platform and multilingual medical service were recommended from students to medical institutions, while medical service guidance and psychological support were suggested to education institutions. Higher-level strategies were also reported, which were mainly pertaining to insurance terms and coverage for overseas students and improving the accessibility of medical information.ConclusionsOur study identifies barriers to healthcare access for Chinese international students in Australia, including culture-specific challenges. To mitigate these issues, we recommend self-directed health promotion, targeted support by education institutions, enhanced cross-cultural communication and expanded telemedicine by hospitals, and attention to insurance coverage. Future research should explore optimising these approaches to improve support systems and policy frameworks.

The participants selection system for Al-Qur'an tahfidz competition using the Simple Additive Weighting method

The Hidayatullah Foundation is an Al-Qur'an-based school that has a tahfidz Al-Qur'an program that is taught every day to students. By holding the Tahfidz competition, it is hoped that it can provide motivation to students to increase their enthusiasm for memorizing the Al-Qur'an. However, so far the selection system that has been carried out by the school still uses manual methods by estimating students who are deemed capable without thorough calculations being carried out. So the selection of students is felt to be unfair and there is no opportunity for other students to take part in the competition. The application of the decision support system uses the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method with the results of the grades and ranking of the best students in the Tahfidz program which is carried out through a system calculation process with the first rank with alternative A10 getting a result of 0.996342132 named Alicia from class 3. The test results using the confusion matrix show the value accuracy of 96.9% which indicates a high level of accuracy. It was concluded that the SAW method could be used to select students to take part in competitions.

PENERAPAN MODEL WATERFALL DALAM MERANCANG APLIKASI PEMILIHAN SISWA TELADAN MENGGUNAKAN METODE SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING

By having exemplary students, it is hoped that students at school will have good role models in all aspects. Unfortunately, subjective selection because it is done using voting can lead to unhealthy competition. So far, the selection of exemplary students begins with the selection of students with the highest average scores, then looks at the student's activity and record of violations which culminates in a vote carried out in the exemplary student selection meeting. Voting at the end of the election can cause the selection of exemplary students to no longer be objective and no longer fair. The application design will use the waterfall method by implementing the SAW method as a method used to help make decisions. The criteria used are 7 criteria in accordance with school policy and the results of this analysis, first the system is able to record all students who will be alternative exemplary students and also the criteria set in accordance with school policy. Second, by implementing a decision support system using CBIS, it can minimize the objectivity and complexity of stakeholders in making decisions and can increase data accuracy. Third, based on the management using this decision support application, an alternative ranking of exemplary students was obtained with the first alternative position being Siska Azzahra Shafa with a total score of 19,790, the second alternative being Andrawan Erlang Padana with a total score of 19,654 and the third being Ichsan Sandi with a total score of 19,645.

The Impact of the Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court Decision on Orthopaedic Residency Programs: A Collaborative Orthopaedic Education Research Group (COERG) Survey.

Recent changes inreproductive health care policy have now led to state-specific differences in abortion care access across the United States. Members of the medical community in particular have issued concerns regarding these new policies and their potential impact on graduate medical training. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to sample orthopaedic surgery residency programs to gauge their perceptions of the Dobbs decision and its impact on residency training. Materials and methods:A 25-item questionnaire was developed toassess the attitudes of orthopaedic surgery residency programs on the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision. Our survey-based study was first endorsed by and then distributed amongst members of the Collaborative Orthopaedic Education Research Group (COERG). A total of 24 representatives from 24 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accredited orthopaedic surgery residency programs agreed to participate in the study. Results: Twenty-four of 24 program correspondents completed the survey (100%). Of the 15 programs (68.2%) who reported that their institution does not have a contingency plan in place, only five (33.3%) see a need for one. Eighteen programs (75.0%) agreed that the ACGME should have a policy protecting residents or significant others needing reproductive care. Ten (41.7%) respondents indicated that the Dobbs decision will impact how students rank residency programs; however, none (0%) believe it will impact their ability to attract a diverse applicant pool. Conclusion: Although some programs surveyed have a contingency plan in place, the majority believe the ACGME should develop a policy that addresses the reproductive needs of residents. Given the higher rate of pregnancy complications experienced by women training in orthopaedic surgery it is paramount to have policies that protect residents seeking reproductive care.

Measuring and correcting staff variability in large-scale OSCEs

ContextObjective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) are an increasingly popular evaluation modality for medical students. While the face-to-face interaction allows for more in-depth assessment, it may cause standardization problems. Methods to quantify, limit or adjust for examiner effects are needed.MethodsData originated from 3 OSCEs undergone by 900-student classes of 5th- and 6th-year medical students at Université Paris Cité in the 2022-2023 academic year. Sessions had five stations each, and one of the three sessions was scored by consensus by two raters (rather than one). We report OSCEs' longitudinal consistency for one of the classes and staff-related and student variability by session. We also propose a statistical method to adjust for inter-rater variability by deriving a statistical random student effect that accounts for staff-related and station random effects.ResultsFrom the four sessions, a total of 16,910 station scores were collected from 2615 student sessions, with two of the sessions undergone by the same students, and 36, 36, 35 and 20 distinct staff teams in each station for each session. Scores had staff-related heterogeneity (p<10-15), with staff-level standard errors approximately doubled compared to chance. With mixed models, staff-related heterogeneity explained respectively 11.4%, 11.6%, and 4.7% of station score variance (95% confidence intervals, 9.5-13.8, 9.7-14.1, and 3.9-5.8, respectively) with 1, 1 and 2 raters, suggesting a moderating effect of consensus grading. Student random effects explained a small proportion of variance, respectively 8.8%, 11.3%, and 9.6% (8.0-9.7, 10.3-12.4, and 8.7-10.5), and this low amount of signal resulted in student rankings being no more consistent over time with this metric, rather than with average scores (p=0.45).ConclusionStaff variability impacts OSCE scores as much as student variability, and the former can be reduced with dual assessment or adjusted for with mixed models. Both are small compared to unmeasured sources of variability, making them difficult to capture consistently.

Critical community building in action: a triad of faculty, graduate and undergraduate students working for racial justice

This article considers what critical community building might look like among colleagues at a university representing one faculty member, one doctoral candidate, and one undergraduate student. Using critical autoethnography-self-study, we analyze our journal reflections, presentations, teaching, and dialogues to better understand our approaches with teaching Critical Race Theory. This research asks: How do colleagues across power dynamics and positionalities learn from each other, and work collaboratively to teach about race and racism at a predominantly white institution? Our findings indicate that this sort of work requires relationships, shared vulnerability, and an understanding of our journeys to becoming critical pedagogues. We find value in this work due to its focus on collaboration across power dynamics (i.e. rank of professor, graduate, and undergraduate students) as well as our positionalities across womanhood. We offer implications for other faculty/instructors who wish to bring this sort of collaboration to their college classroom and teacher education.

Enhancing Quality Learning in East African Higher Education: Towards a Common Understanding of Formative Feedback

The quest for enhancing quality learning in higher education across East Africa necessitates a cohesive understanding of what formative feedback is and how it can be used to promote student learning. This study explores how formative feedback is understood as it relates to improving student learning outcomes within the East African higher education context. By synthesizing existing policies and conducting qualitative analyses of current practices, the research identifies key challenges and opportunities for having a common understanding of formative feedback. Findings reveal a widespread misunderstanding of formative feedback, with many perceiving it as equivalent to course evaluations, continuous summative assessments, and student ranking based on grades. The study highlights a lack of consensus among government officials, higher education administrators, faculty, and students regarding the definition and implementation of formative feedback. This research suggests the need for a comprehensive qualitative study to examine how formative feedback is defined and perceived across East Africa. Such an investigation could catalyze robust discussions among key stakeholders, leading to the development of shared definitions and sustainable formative feedback systems, ultimately enhancing educational outcomes in the region.

The effect of different patient-based learning models on student perceptions of empathy, engagement, knowledge, and learning experience

Background Problem-based learning is used widely in pharmacy and medical programmes, incorporating realistic patient scenarios into regular teaching as a way of linking theory to practice. Routine case-based learning lessons ranges from real patient involvement, scripted patient scenarios, digital simulations (avatars) as well as through media such as Zoom. The existing literature has explored the extensive benefits of using patients in clinical education, but fewer studies have directly compared the efficacy of each model as learning tools. Aim To compare student perceptions of patient-based learning models to elicit student empathy, increase engagement, improve knowledge, and enrich learning experience. Methods A questionnaire was distributed to second-year pharmacy students in Swansea University to gather their perceptions on the nine different patient-based learning models in their routine teaching (SUMS RESC 2023-0011). Students were asked to rank their experience of the models explicitly against each other, based on the four pillars of (1) eliciting student empathy, (2) increasing engagement, (3) improving knowledge and (4) enriching the learning experience. Students were also asked to rate the significance of realism (i.e. knowing the patient demographics/having a visual representation of the patient) to their experience. Results Altogether, 31 student rankings of the nine learning models were weighted (9 = highest rank; 1 = lowest ranked). The data showed clear preferences for real-patient involvement over fictional cases, especially for eliciting empathy. Interestingly, scripted scenarios were rated highly for both engagement and learning experience only when avatars were involved, which suggests a role of animated visual representation of the patient in facilitating these outcomes. Conclusion Whilst it is useful to have multiple patient-based learning models, this study serves as a guide for educators in preparing case-based learning sessions for achieving the desired outcomes of any of the four pillars above.

High-fidelity simulation versus case-based discussion for training undergraduate medical students in pediatric emergencies: a quasi-experimental study

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of high-fidelity simulation of pediatric emergencies compared to case-based discussion on the development of self-confidence, theoretical knowledge, clinical reasoning, communication, attitude, and leadership in undergraduate medical students. Methods33 medical students were allocated to two teaching methods: high-fidelity simulation (HFS, n = 18) or case-based discussion (CBD, n = 15). Self-confidence and knowledge tests were applied before and after the interventions and the effect of HFS on both outcomes was estimated with mixed-effect models. An Objective Structured Clinical Examination activity was conducted after the interventions, while two independent raters used specific simulation checklists to assess clinical reasoning, communication, attitude, and leadership. The effect of HFS on these outcomes was estimated with linear and logistic regressions. The effect size was estimated with the Hedge's g. ResultsBoth groups had an increase in self-confidence (HFS 59.1 × 93.6, p < 0.001; CDB 50.5 × 88.2, p < 0.001) and knowledge scores over time (HFS 45.1 × 63.2, p = 0.001; CDB 43.5 × 56.7, p-value < 0.01), but no difference was observed between groups (group*time effect in the mixed effect models adjusted for the student ranking) for both tests (p = 0.6565 and p = 0.3331, respectively). The simulation checklist scores of the HFS group were higher than those of the CBD group, with large effect sizes in all domains (Hedges g 1.15 to 2.20). ConclusionHFS performed better than CBD in developing clinical reasoning, communication, attitude, and leadership in undergraduate medical students in pediatric emergency care, but no significant difference was observed in self-confidence and theoretical knowledge.
