INTEGRATION OF IBNU SINA'S ISLAMIC EDUCATION THOUGHT IN MUHAMMADIYAH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Authors: Rofi'ah Rofi'ah , Asrini Vivi Indri
Published: May 2023

Ibn Sina's Islamic educational thinking consists of objectives, curriculum, teaching methods, and teaching competence. According to  Ibn Sina, a good pen or teacher is someone who is smart, wise, and exemplary. Ibnu Sina also believes that the output of teaching is for students to become perfect human beings (al-insan kamil) and become people of quality according to their field abilities or the talents of each student. The fact in the field is that there are still teachers who only carry out teaching duties but do not understand the importance of the character of a teacher and the output of the teaching itself. This means that the teacher has not been integrated from the concept of thinking of Ibn Sina's Islamic Education. The purpose of this study was to describe the integration of Ibn Sina's educational thinking at SD Muhammadiyah 1 Wonopeti, so that the scope of this research is: the planning and implementation of learning the integration of Ibn Sina's educational thinking. The research method is field research (fild research) with a descriptive qualitative approach, namely researchers trying to make observations about a phenomenon in a natural state. Data was collected using interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study show that the teachers of SD Muhammadiyah 1 Wonopeti have integrated the thinking concept of Ibn Sina's Islamic Education with learning planning which includes objectives, curriculum, methods and concepts of good educators. The implications of this integration are realized by creative and interesting learning through regular and extracurricular and co-curricular teaching and learning activities.

Authors: Tan Siqi , Chen Li , Wang Weidong ,   School of Information Science and Technology, University of Science of Technology of China, Hefei 230027, China
Published: May 2023

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has been applied to many practical applications over the past few years. Recently, distributed graph-based semi-supervised learning (DGSSL) has been shown to have good performance. Current DGSSL algorithms usually have the problems of inefficient graph construction and the straggler effect. This paper proposes a novel coded DGSSL (CDGSSL) to solve these problems. We first provide a novel parallel and distributed solution of matrix completion for efficient graph construction. Then, we develop the CDGSSL algorithm based on coding theory. Specifically, the proposed algorithm consists of two parts separately designed based on the maximum distance separable (MDS) code. In general, the proposed coded distributed algorithm is efficient and straggler tolerant. Moreover, we provide an optimal parameter design for the proposed algorithm. The results of the experiments on the Alibaba Cloud elastic compute service (ECS) demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm.

Authors:   , Douglas Siqueira Macêdo Iarley
Published: May 2023

A adequada gestão das finanças públicas inclui o planejamento e controle da utilização dos recursos públicos e contribui para que a prestação dos serviços à população que atendam às suas necessidades sejam garantidos e realizados com eficiência. Para aumentar o seu controle no ano 2000 foi promulgada a Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal, objetivando aumentar o controle dos gastos públicos, reduzindo desvios e mantendo a eficiência da sua utilização, que deve seguir o planejamento realizado previamente. Diante disso, esta pesquisa objetiva analisar algumas características do comportamento das finanças públicas nos Estados Nordestinos no ano de 2011, utilizando como parâmetros Indicadores de Desempenho (Indicadores da Estrutura de Receitas, Indicadores da Estrutura da Despesa, Indicadores Per Capita, Indicadores de Liquidez, Indicadores Orçamentários, Indicadores de Endividamento). Ela foi concretizada a partir de levantamentos bibliográficos e da análise de dados extraídos dos demonstrativos de receita, despesa, ativo e passivo disponibilizados por estes Estados na Secretaria do Tesouro Nacional, abrangendo o ano de 2011, sendo possível a partir disso identificar que quanto maior a participação das receitas tributárias, menor a dependência dos Estados pelos recursos transferidos por outros entes e maior a sua capacidade de liquidez o que contribui para a manutenção da prestação dos serviços prestados à população. No entanto, também foi verificado que as outras despesas correntes mantiveram-se elevadas no ano de 2011, de modo que elas precisam ser reduzidas a fim de que os recursos possam ser direcionados para novos investimentos que venham a atender as necessidades da população de forma mais eficiente.

Английские фразеологические единицы и свободные словосочетания как симбиоз языка и культуры
Authors: Багана Жером , Ци Ван , Бисенбаева Жанат Николаевна
Published: May 2023

Рассмотрены особенности высокопродуктивных фразеологических единиц и свободных словосочетаний на примере английской лингвокультуры. В ходе исследования фразеологические единицы и свободные словосочетания английского языка характеризуются как элементы, представляющие собой часть культурного наследия в рамках британской лингвокультуры. Для состояния современного английского языка характерной особенностью является функционирование фразеологических единиц, значение которых претерпело изменение, что обусловлено влиянием экстралингвистических факторов. Доказано, что английский язык обладает характерными чертами лингвокультурного прошлого, реализующимися в форме фразеологизмов и свободных словосочетаний. В исследовании подчеркнуто, что библеизмы представляют собой основную часть диапазона фразеологических единиц, функционирующих в современном английском языке. Вслед за библеизмами фразеологические единицы и свободные словосочетания, заимствованные из классической британской литературы, входят в ранг продуктивных и занимают вторую позицию по принципу продуктивности, что продиктовано необходимостью следовать обычаям и традициям родной культуры, отражающейся в произведениях английских классиков. Сделан вывод, что фразеологические единицы и свободные словосочетания, заимствованные из произведений У. Шекспира и В. Скотта, превосходят продуктивность заимствованных фразеологических единиц из произведений других представителей классической английской литературы и функционируют в ежедневной речи британцев. В заключении отмечено, что лексический состав современного английского языка содержит определенное количество заимствованных из французской и американской художественной литературы фразеологических единиц и свободных словосочетаний.

Authors: Son So-Hee
Published: May 2023

This study provides basic data to analyze national competency standard (NCS) education factors of sk in cosmetologists operating sk in care shops to find out how they affect education satisfaction and business performance. A total of 320 survey data were collected for the composition of the questionnaire, and the measurement tools were modified and supplemented to suit the setting of this study and reconstructed. General characteristics (9 questions), state of operation according to NCS (11 questions), recognition according to the NCS level perceived by skin cosmetologists (14 questions), education satisfaction of NCS learning module (program) (17 questions), and business performance (9 questions), consisting of a total of 60 questions in 6 areas. Frequency analysis, reliability analysis, factor analysis, correlation analysis, cross-tabulation and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS 22.0 program. The results of the study showed that the three factors of ‘knowledge technology’, ‘attitude and confidence’, and ‘business management’ had a significant effect. The application of NCS had a significant positive correlation between educational satisfaction and business performance (p<0.001), and it was confirmed that skin cosmetologists preferred a special skin care program that was easily acquired and differentiated from the skin care shop. In addition, it was found that NCS education wanted realistic development that could help business management. As a result, it is difficult to differentiate the program module from basic education to special management education at present, and it is confirmed that additional development that can have characteristics for each skin care shop is necessary in order to compete competitively with the gradually increasing skin care shop. If NCS education develops further in line with the needs of skin cosmetologists who manage these skin care shop, it is judged that NCS education will help develop the skin beauty industry in terms of skin care.

Authors: Kim Hyun-Duck , Kim Jong-Du
Published: May 2023

This study investigated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory in order to confirm the possibility of functional materials that can improve skin diseases using Hemistepta lyrata Bunge extracts and solvent fractions. As a result of measuring the total polyphenol content, the content was high in EtOAc fraction, and then the BuOH fraction is next. As a result of measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activities, it was confirmed that BuOH fractions had superior antioxidant activity compared to other solvent fractions. In particular, in the case of EtOAc fraction, it was confirmed that the antioxidant ability was excellent even at a low concentration compared to other fractions in ABTS and FRAP assay. Through this, it was confirmed that the higher the total polyphenol content, the higher the antioxidant effect. In addition, as a result of verifying the inflammatory efficacy of the extract and the solvent fraction using the J774 cell line, it was confirmed that the NO level decreased when the extract and the solvent fraction were treated. In particular, it is determined that the ethyl acetate fraction having a high total polyphenol content has superior antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and contains more active substances than other fractions. Therefore, in order to conduct additional research, it is determined that research on the compounds contained in the ethyl acetate fraction is necessary.

Authors: Chang Sun-Yeop , You Se-Eun
Published: May 2023

This study examines the general characteristics of reeducation and perceptions of reeducation. And to find out the relationship between educational satisfaction and management performance. For this purpose, an analysis was conducted through a questionnaire to beauty workers. First, the general characteristics of reeducation are as follows. Re-education completion institutions have the most majors in beauty-related departments, Most of them had more than 10 years of cosmetic experience. More than half of respondents said that retraining was necessary, and the most information was obtained from the Internet and SNS. The number of retraining was 1-6 times, and the biggest purpose was to improve cutting skills. The educational institutions are a beauty shop and a re-education institution, and they were paying the education fee for this. Most thought that periodic training was necessary, but Lack of time was the biggest problem. Second, the perception of beauty workers retraining had an impact on the satisfaction level of education. It was because there was a belief that retraining would improve professionalism. However, most of them had low determination for reeducation. Third, ‘multiple regression analysis’ was used to verify the effect of satisfaction with beauty workers' retraining on business performance. The biggest factor in satisfaction with retraining was the improvement in sales. Satisfaction with the improvement of professionalism in reeducation was relatively low. The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to develop a measurement scale for a more in-depth analysis of reeducation targeting beauty workers. In addition, for the correct measurement of retraining satisfaction, an approach based on other dimensions besides professional satisfaction and sales performance is needed. It is necessary to verify the relationship between the recognition of beauty practitioners' reeducation, the professionalism that meets the rapidly changing consumption trend, and the consequent satisfaction with reeducation on the management performance. And from the customer's point of view, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between beauty trends, beauty shop loyalty, and user attitude.

People with chickenpox often gain lifelong immunity after one infection. In most cases, chickenpox's natural immunity provides significant protection against reinfection. However, patients with a second reinfection have been encountered periodically. Neither population-based nor individual data are available on the frequency of reported second Varicella infections among Indians. The possibility of third-time reinfection is very rare, even in reputed literature. Here, we discuss a 68-year-old patient with four reinfections of chickenpox. Two reputed dermatologists confirmed his infection, and he recovered fully with Acyclovir and bed rest. The primary objective of this case report is to highlight the risk of chickenpox reinfections and reinfections occurring more than two times.

Authors: Thota Praveen Kumar , Somaskandan Ganapathy , Mani Manikandan
Published: May 2023

In the research work presented in this paper, we present a grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system, which is focused on various factors, such as the low oxide emission and high energy efficiency of the system. Solar PV systems have a greater impact on grid stability than any other energy source. IEEE 14 bus test system is used to verify the voltage stability of the bus. It is a concept of a methodology using a RNN-based PV controller in conjunction with a Landsman converter to maintain the PV system's voltage-gain ratio and improve it. Conversely, an ANN-based boost Integrated Landsman Converter improves the solar photovoltaic voltage connected to the grid. In addition, continuous monitoring of solar plants (irradiation, sunlight & voltage) is implemented through the Internet of Things (IoT). A grid voltage stability and analysis is taken by 14 buses, five generators and 12 loads test system is tested. The proposed two methods have been proven to be effective regarding the uncertainties related to loading demand. This approach offers voltage stability for grid-connected PV systems in industrial sectors. The IEEE 14 & 30 bus system tested this work using MATLAB simulation.

Published: May 2023

Cancer is a genetic disease caused due to mutations in the tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes involved in the cell cycle regulation. It may include mutations that may be inherited or acquired during one’s lifetime and affect single gene or multiple genes, chromosomes and their protein expression patterns, ultimately leading to a loss of control over the cell cycle and culminating in uncontrolled cell growth. With the tremendous increase in global cancer burden and early detection being the key to cure, it has become imperative that the genes be studied and new genetic and biochemical testing techniques be utilized. In this review, we have looked at various mutations involved in common cancer-causing genes, their role under normal physiological conditions, mechanisms of mutation and their occurrence in different types of cancers. Also, the review focuses on conventional and novel approaches for genetic and biochemical testing, the techniques used and their advantages and limitations.

Pandemic and advancing technologies have surged the use of Telemedicine services in every medical care field. Its implications have been in the arena of Ayurveda as well. The extent of practice and knowledge among Ayurvedic physicians is yet to be studied. Study to determine how much and what kind of knowledge Ayurvedic physicians have about Telemedicine. Google form survey-based cross-sectional study among Ayurvedic physicians in Kerala via WhatsApp. The questionnaire was developed based on in-depth interviews among Ayurveda physicians from each speciality, which is pretested to confirm reliability and validity tested using Split half and Cronbach’s alpha test (alpha coefficient =0.48). Cross tabs of the variables and various factors of telemedicine practice were worked out to see the relationship. More than half of the participants (54.8%) do not practice telemedicine. Among those practising telemedicine, 90% of participants commenced during the pandemic. All the practitioners in the government sector started with telemedicine due to the pandemic, while a small share of private practitioners (5.9%) cast off it before. The majority had not gone through the guidelines issued on telemedicine. 54% of government practitioners are dissatisfied, while 60% of private practitioners are content. Practices like consent-taking hardly apply. Acceptability and applicability of Telemedicine among Ayurveda physicians are slow. Addition of Medico-legal and technological education as a part of the curriculum is the need of the hour to catch up with the cumulative numeral of “e-patients”.
Okun's law, Phillips curve and its effect on the growth of Income Tax Article 21 payments during Covid-19 pandemic
Authors: Ardin Galih
Published: May 2023

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the macroeconomics indicators not only in Indonesia but also in other countries in the world. Restrictions on social activities, lockdowns, a decline in aggregate demand and supply as well as a drop in export and import activities have triggered a decrease in economic growth, increase unemployment rate, and stagnation of inflation rates leading to deflation. Logically, the turmoil in macroeconomic indicators will affect tax revenues, especially Article 21 Income Tax. Through the Okun’s law and Phillips curve approach, this research tries to examine the relationship between unemployment rates, economic growth, and inflation rates during the pandemic on income tax payments Article 21. Based on the examination using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, it founds that the unemployment rate does not have a significant effect on economic growth and inflation rates in Indonesia. In addition, economic growth also does not affect the payment of Income Tax Article 21. However, there is an interesting finding where the inflation rate has a positive effect on the payment of Income Tax Article 21 in Indonesia.
Machine learning: Classifiying taxpayer’s supervising zone based on the street address using Natural Language Processing algorithm
Authors: Iqbalsah Reno
Published: May 2023

Assigning taxpayers into their respective Account Representatives is a crucial step to optimize Taxpayers supervision. However, the large number of registered taxpayers and missing data has been a great challenge. A lot of taxpayers only include their street addresses and no additional information such as RT, RW, etc. This will cause additional work to manually search each taxpayer address in the internet and manually assigned, which is not efficient and takes a lot of time. This study will try to solve this problem using Natural Language Processing algorithm. Efficiency and accuracy are the key on creating machine learning model. Choosing the right classifier is crucial to the accuracy. Other than the classifier, managing text data is also challenging, since it cannot be understood directly by computers. Thus, this study will also include how we could transform the text data into arrays of numbers called Bag of Words.
impact of the alternative tax base measurement policy on the VAT revenue performance in the Indonesian agricultural sector
Authors: Priyogo Singgih , Nasrudin Rus'an
Published: May 2023

Informality issues and government distributional objectives cause the need for VAT special treatment for the agricultural sector. The treatment forms and resulting impacts vary, depending on each country's conditions and necessities. This study aims to estimate the impact of the alternative tax base measurement policies on the VAT revenue performance in the Indonesian agricultural sector. Using input-output table modeling, the authors found that the policy positively impacts the compliance level and VAT revenue in the agricultural sector but reduces the aggregate national VAT revenues and increases the VAT burden that the agricultural sector entrepreneurs must bear. The normal VAT mechanism is preferred for the long-term goal, but the alternative policy is still needed during the transition period.
La industria de conservas de fruta en Chile, c. 1895-1930. Un caso de desarrollo industrial no frustrado
Authors: Rendón Zapata Bibiana
Published: May 2023

Este artículo examina la expansión de la industria de conservas de fruta en Chile entre fines del siglo XIX y durante las primeras décadas del s. XX. Este proceso fue el resultado de la iniciativa de empresarios innovadores, quienes, en su mayor parte, no eran parte de las elites empresariales ni de la clase de grandes terratenientes que dominaba la agricultura de Chile Central. Estos nuevos industriales desarrollaron la producción en gran escala de conservas de frutas, hortalizas y legumbres, por medio de la integración vertical y conectando la emergente fruticultura especializada con un sub-sector industrial de alimentos orientado principalmente al mercado interno. A diferencia del empresariado asociado a la exportación de materias primas, los industriales conserveros invirtieron las utilidades para expandir la producción y modernizar sus fábricas. Asimismo, como en otros sectores, la industria de conservas fue formada por empresarios chilenos y extranjeros, quienes crearon sólidas empresas familiares que, en algunos casos, tuvieron una larga trayectoria.

Published: May 2023

網路團購是一種新興的消費方式，買家之間透過相互合作與商家協商，以獲取低價或增加產品的數量。本研究以刺激—有機體—反應理論模型為基礎，檢視參與網路團購的消費者，他們的從眾傾向是否會調節知覺風險與購買意願之間的關係，並以調節式中介模式進行效果驗證。本研究透過網路調查共蒐集573名過去曾經參與過網路團購的消費者進行調查。研究發現，網路口碑資訊對知覺風險具有顯著負向影響，知覺風險對購買意願具有顯著負向影響。雖然從眾傾向在知覺風險和購買意願之間具有調節作用，但從眾傾向對維持購買意願的作用有限。調節式中介模式檢定的結果驗證了從眾傾向的情境效應。最後進行討論，並說明理論貢獻、實務意涵與未來研究方向。

 

Online group buying is a relatively new consumption practice, through mutual cooperation between buyers negotiate with businesses to obtain low prices or an increased number of products. This study employed stimulus-organism-response theory model to examine whether customer’ conformity tendency moderates the relationship between perceived risk and online group buying intention, a moderated mediation model was proposed and tested. By the analysis of online survey data from 573 customers who have participated in group buying, the result of the study show that online word-of-mouth information has negative effect on perceived risk, and perceived risk has negative impact on online group buying purchase intention. Although conformity tendency has moderating effects between perceived risk and purchase intention, but the role of conformity tendency in preserving purchase intention is found to be limited. Results from moderated mediation model testing verify the contextual effect of conformity tendency. Theoretical implications have been suggested along with the direction for future researches.

In order to solve the problem of small data sets and small detected targets in image detection of wind turbine blades. In this paper, we propose an improved YOLOX-X model. Firstly, we use a variety of data set enhancement methods to solve the problem of small data sets. Secondly, an improved Mixup image enhancement method is proposed to enrich the image background. Then, the attention mechanisms of ECAnet and CBAM are introduced to improve the attention of important features. Furthermore, the IOU_LOSS loss function in the original model is replaced with CIOU_LOSS in this paper to improve the positioning accuracy of small target. Last but not least, the overall network uses the Adam optimizer to accelerate network training and recognition. The effectiveness of algorithm is evaluated on a data sets captured by a UAV in a wind farm. Compared with the original YOLOX-X model, our algorithm improves mAP by 4.55%. In addition, compared with other types of YOLO series networks, it is proved that our model is superior to other algorithms.

Data annotation is the categorization and labelling of data for applications, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and data integration. The categorization and labelling are done to achieve a specific use case in relation to solving problems. Existing data annotation systems and modules face imperfections such as knowledge and annotation not being formally integrated, narrow application range, and difficulty to apply on existing database management applications. To analyze and process annotated data, obtain the relationship between different annotations, and capture metainformation in data provenance and probabilistic databases, in this paper, we design a back-end query processing framework as a supplementary interface for the database management system to extend operation to datasets and boost efficiency. The framework utilizes Java language and the MVC model for development to achieve lightweight, cross-platform, and high adaptability identities. The contribution of this paper is mainly reflected in two aspects. The first contribution is to implement query processing, provenance semiring, and semiring homomorphism over annotated data. The second contribution is to combine query processing and provenance with SQL statements in order to enable the database manager to invoke operations to annotation.

Published: May 2023

Internet of Vehicles (IoV) plays an important role in enhancing the intelligence of social transportation services. However, there are existing such as privacy leakage, computational complexity and low efficiency on V2R authentication protocols. To solve these problems, a lightweight V2R authentication protocol according to physical unclonable function (PUF) and Chebyshev chaotic map is proposed. The lightweight property of PUF in this scheme can solve the resource constraint problem of the On-Board Unit (OBU) effectively. The fuzzy extractor can correct for small variations in PUF response and improve the accuracy of data transmission. Besides, Chebyshev chaotic map with good cryptographic properties establishes a secure session key while achieving mutual authentication of V2R. Finally, simulation results show that the scheme combining PUF, chaotic map, and fuzzy extractor in this paper saves 4.7% to 49% in communication and calculation overhead comparing with existing protocols. In terms of security, our scheme can also meet the requirements well in the V2R authentication protocol for IoV.

Authors: Yi-Hui Chen Yi-Hui Chen
Published: May 2023

Axial hydraulic piston pump is widely used in industrial production due to its high pressure resistance and large displacement characteristics, but high pressure and large displacement are also the main causes of piston pump failure. Starting from the fault mechanism of the axial hydraulic piston pump, this paper analyzes and studies the signal characteristics of the fault, and establishes the fault signal acquisition and analysis model. Finally, it discusses the construction of the diagnosis system from both hardware and software, so that the processed typical fault signals can be sent into the intelligent diagnosis system to determine the fault type. Finally, the method in this paper is verified by experiments, which proves the reliability and effectiveness of the diagnosis system.

 
Covid-19 in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel’s Duty to Vaccinate
Authors: Lederman Zohar , Lederman Shmuel , Majadli Ghada
Published: May 2023

This article presents a public health analysis of the Occupied Palestinian Territory (oPt) during Covid. Focusing on vaccination, the article goes against vaccine nationalism in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, arguing that Israel is obligated to provide adequately safe and effective vaccination to the OPT, for three main reasons, in descending normative force. One is corrective justice. Israel has been directly damaging the Palestinian health care infrastructure and contributed largely to the de-development of the health care system in the Palestinian territory, continuing to hamper its reconstruction. It then ought to rectify its wrongdoings. Second is responsibility and solidarity. Israel is responsible for the well-being of those who do not adequately possess it, including Palestinians. Furthermore, people living in Israel may identify with people living in the oPt in relevant ways and should thus stand with them in their fight against Covid-19. Third is prudence. Optimizing immunity among Palestinians would optimize immunity among Israelis. The article finally places the discussion within a wider context of human rights.

Authors: Vivek Kumar MS  , Akshay Brara
Published: May 2023

AIM: Comparison of Ligasure hemorrhoidectomy with conventional Milligan Morgan hemorrhoidectomy for the treatment of grade III and IV hemorrhoids. Material and Methods: The current study was achieved between December 2020 to December 2022. A total of 64 Patients of grade III and IV hemorrhoids were randomized into two groups, Group A- Ligasure hemorrhoidectomy (32 patients) and Group B- Milligan Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (32 patients). The hemorrhoidal predicle was coagulated with Ligasure in Group A and transfixed with 1/0 Vicryl in Group B. Procedure time, the amount of lost blood, postoperative pain, and duration of hospitalization were recorded. Result: Out of 64 patients, there were 38 males and 26 females. The mean age of all patients for group A was 42 years, and for group B, was 48 years. The average procedure time in both group A was 23.6±8 min and in group B 53.5±9 min respectively. The average amount of lost blood was 12.50 ml in group A and 29.40 ml in group B. The VAS pain scores on the 0 day and 7th day in group A were 4.8, and 1.2 respectively and in group B were 7.2, and 2.6 respectively. The duration of hospitalization was 1.4 days and, 3.2 days in both groups, respectively. Conclusion: The submucosal dissection technique with Ligasure coagulation of the hemorrhoidal pedicle is safe and effective. Suturing is not required as the mucosal tissue over the pedicle is sealed off with the current. There is minimal lateral spread of either thermal or electrical energy. Because of its ease of use and less postoperative pain and complication Ligasure hemorrhoidectomy can be preformed as a day-care procedure.

Background: Clinical documentation is a critical form of communication in healthcare settings. As defined by the Physiotherapy Practice Thresholds, clinical documentation that complies with relevant professional and legal obligations is a requirement for all physiotherapists in Australia and New Zealand.

Aims: The aims of this study were to explore the experiences of clinical documentation and perceived support and training needs for physiotherapy students whilst on clinical placement, from the perspective of students and clinical educators.

Method: A qualitative approach was used to investigate physiotherapy student (n=18) and clinical educator (n=17) experiences and perspectives. Interviews from eight focus groups were professionally transcribed, and reflexive thematic analysis was applied to the data to determine common themes.

Results: Four overarching themes were generated; 1) Recognising the value of documentation, 2) Variance of expectations, 3) Challenges in measuring performance, and 4) Clinical placement readiness and requirements.

Conclusion: The main findings from this study identify the unique challenges that students experience to meet documentation requirements on clinical placement. This study highlights the shared responsibility of university education providers and clinical placement facilities to support students to understand the importance of clinical documentation and assist in improving their documentation skills.
