Caregiver Decision-making for School Placement of Children Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing and Children with Other Disabilities: A Global Perspective
Authors: Stephens Nicole M. , Duncan Jill
Published: December 2020

Decision-making is fundamental to everyday modern life (Porter, Creed, Hood, & Ching, 2018; Ranyard & Crozier, 2002). Some decisions require little thought, while others are more complex as options considered do not always lead to clear outcomes (Baron, 2008). Caregivers of children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) are frequently confronted with complex decisions (Marschark, 2018), with the almost universal decision encountered being school enrollment choice. This systematic literature review explores worldwide research on factors effecting the decisionmaking processes of caregivers of children who are DHH when deciding on an educational setting. Three databases were searched and reference lists of identified articles examined, which resulted in a limited number of documents located. To broaden the scope of the review, another search was conducted to include caregivers of children with other disabilities. In all, nine articles were found and analyzed for common themes and sub-themes relevant to the decision-making processes of caregivers when choosing educational settings for their children who are DHH or who have other disabilities. Three broadly grouped themes were identified: child-centered, familial, and school. Five sub-themes were also identified: community inclusion, additional disabilities and wellbeing, complexity of decision-making, information input and flow, and school systems and personnel.

Published: December 2020

A crescente complexidade do mercado de trabalho coloca novos desafios aos estudantes do ensino secundário Português, sobretudo em momentos normativos de transição como o do ensino secundário para o ensino superior e/ou o mercado de trabalho. Neste contexto, a adaptabilidade de carreira surge como um processo capaz de facilitar a transição sobretudo pelos níveis de confiança com que os estudantes encaram a resolução de tarefas relativas à inserção escolar e profissional. O presente estudo, baseado num desenho longitudinal curto, tem como principal objetivo avaliar as diferenças na adaptabilidade de carreira de 490 estudantes, com uma média de idades de 17.3 (DP = 0.98), em função do nivel de ensino secundário frequentado e do sexo. O efeito na carreira do percurso educativo trilhado no secundário ainda está insuficientemente estudado. Assim, utilizando a Career Adapt-Abilities Scale, comparam-se médias nas dimensões da adaptabilidade de carreira através de uma MANOVA 2x2x2 com medidas repetidas num fator. Os resultados encontrados apontam para diferenças significativas em algumas dimensões da adaptabilidade de carreira em função dos contextos estudados. Por último, são apresentadas as limitações do estudo e discutidas as implicações dos resultados para a intervenção vocacional no âmbito do apoio aos processos normativos de transição no final do ensino secundário.

Authors: López-Pérez Esther , Pino-Juste Margarita , Campos Alfredo
Published: December 2020

Las personas pueden tener imágenes mentales vivas sobre la muerte, y pueden tener control sobre ellas. El objetivo de esta investigación era saber si la viveza de imagen y el control de imagen influían en la actitud ante la muerte en un grupo de adolescentes (Estudio 1) y en un grupo de adultos (Estudio 2). Las variables independientes fueron la viveza de imagen y el control de imagen de los participantes, y como variables dependientes se utilizaron las subescalas del Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R): Aceptación de Acercamiento (AA), Miedo a la Muerte (FD), Evitación de la Muerte (DA), Aceptación de Escape (EA), y Aceptación Neutral (NA). Se encontró que, en el grupo de adolescentes, los individuos que tenían un mayor control de imagen tuvieron significativamente menos Miedo a la Muerte (FD), menores puntuaciones en la escala de Evitación de la Muerte (DA), y mayores puntuaciones en la escala de Aceptación Neutral (NA) que los estudiantes que tuvieron un menor control de imagen. En el Estudio 2 no se encontró influencia de la viveza de imagen ni del control de imagen sobre las subescalas del Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R).

Authors: Paulos Liliana , Valadas Sandra , Almeida Leandro S.
Published: December 2020

O presente estudo centra-se nas práticas de seleção de diplomados do Ensino Superior, por parte de empregadores dos setores privados, público e terceiro setor, de duas regiões de Portugal, uma situada no norte e outra no sul. Pretendeu-se conhecer quais são as técnicas mais utilizadas pelos empregadores dos três setores e identificar fatores que influenciem o processo de seleção de graduados. Para a recolha de dados, foram realizadas 19 entrevistas semiestruturadas a empregadores dos três setores económicos. Quanto à análise dos dados, foram consideradas categorias emergentes, no sentido de descobrir padrões de significado, com recurso a um procedimento indutivo. Os resultados sugerem que as práticas de seleção mais utilizadas são 1. a análise curricular, através da qual é feita uma pré-seleção dos candidatos que apresentam um curriculum vitae (CV) claro e sucinto e que reúnem os requisitos mínimos de formação académica e de experiência profissional tendo em conta a vaga para a qual estão a recrutar; e 2. a entrevista de seleção, na qual tentam avaliar as competências transversais e a correspondência entre os valores do candidato e os da organização. O estudo revela que as competências transversais parecem ser hoje muito importantes para os empregadores e que a ideia de empregabilidade está relacionada com a responsabilidade individual dos graduados; destaca também o aumento das expectativas dos empregadores face à responsabilidade das Instituições de Ensino Superior na promoção da empregabilidade dos seus estudantes.

Authors: Hong Tuyet Vo Thi , Thanh Binh Nguyen
Published: December 2020

Energy between curves of image has useful for object contour. The edge map is an important task for recognition. The shape that is found by linking between edges will clearly present the useful information of objects. The aim of medical image segmentation is the representation of a medical image into small pieces. In this process, feature extraction must adapt with edge map completely. This paper proposed a solution for medical image segmentation based on fully convolutional network with gradient vector flow snake in bandelet domain. Our approach depends on decomposition in bandelet domain and reconstruction in contour detection by fully convolutional network combining with gradient vector flow snake. To improve the accuracy of the feature's extraction processing, the proposed method detected the edge map in bandelet domain by using fully convolutional network. And its reconstructed objects contour by using gradient vector flow snake combined with the boundary condition. The results of the proposed method have the segmentation clearly with small details of medical images in high-quality and low-quality cases.

Authors: Marsh Teresa Naseba , Marsh David C. , Najavits Lisa M.
Published: December 2020

Intergenerational trauma in Indigenous Peoples was not the result of a targeted event, but rather political and governmental policies inflicted upon entire generations. The resultant effects of these traumas and multiple losses include addiction, depression, anxiety, violence, self-destructive behaviors, and suicide, to name but a few. Traditional healers, Elders, and Indigenous facilitators agree that the reclamation of traditional healing practices combined with conventional interventions could be effective in addressing intergenerational trauma and substance use disorders. Recent research has shown that the blending of Indigenous traditional healing practices and the Western treatment model Seeking Safety resulted in a reduction of intergenerational trauma (IGT) symptoms and substance use disorders (SUD). This article focuses on the Indigenous facilitators who were recruited and trained to conduct the sharing circles as part of the research effort. We describe the six-day training, which focused on the implementation of the Indigenous Healing and Seeking Safety model, as well as the impact the training had on the facilitators. Through the viewpoints and voices of the facilitators, we explore the growth and changes the training brought about for them, as well as their perception of how their changes impacted their clients.

Faculty and Student Technology Use to Enhance Student Learning
Authors: Gaddis Margaret L.
Published: December 2020

Scholarly research has indicated that technology adoption to facilitate blended learning promotes the academic success of many different types of students and improves the quality of existing educational offerings. To understand how technology enhances learning, surveys queried the faculty and students of a statewide community college system. The results indicated widespread technology use among the faculty and students. The faculty survey revealed details of technology tools employed and the motivations for their use or discontinued use. Details regarding faculty use of learning management systems, textbooks, and other media characterized the current technology adoption climate. The student survey collected information about students’ perceptions of how technology influenced their learning, their preferences for specific technology tools, and their student progress. Ninety-three percent of student respondents indicated that technology enhanced their learning. Alignment between the faculty use and student preference for technology tools suggested that students are actively engaged in the technology resources used by faculty to enhance learning. Students described how technology facilitated multimodal learning. They also noted that technology increased communication, access, and inclusion in learning. Successful technology use and integration, accompanied by ongoing scholarly debate and monitoring, has the potential to provide more access, promote learning outcomes, and preserve the investment of technology for the institution. The surveys employed here, when used semi-annually, may provide a low-cost model for technology integration monitoring and evaluation. The responses to the surveys also have the potential to provide technology use and integration data that informs strategic planning processes and institutional learning outcome development.

Published: December 2020

In recent years, massive open online courses (MOOCs) have gained popularity with learners and providers, and thus MOOC providers have started to further enhance the use of MOOCs through recommender systems. This paper is a systematic literature review on the use of recommender systems for MOOCs, examining works published between January 1, 2012 and July 12, 2019 and, to the best of our knowledge, it is the first of its kind. We used Google Scholar, five academic databases (IEEE, ACM, Springer, ScienceDirect, and ERIC) and a reference chaining technique for this research. Through quantitative analysis, we identified the types and trends of research carried out in this field. The research falls into three major categories: (a) the need for recommender systems, (b) proposed recommender systems, and (c) implemented recommender systems. From the literature, we found that research has been conducted in seven areas of MOOCs: courses, threads, peers, learning elements, MOOC provider/teacher recommender, student performance recommender, and others. To date, the research has mostly focused on the implementation of recommender systems, particularly course recommender systems. Areas for future research and implementation include design of practical and scalable online recommender systems, design of a recommender system for MOOC provider and teacher, and usefulness of recommender systems.

Background and objectives: Suicide is a topical issue in Lithuania and all around the world. It is the second most common cause of death among young people. There is a lack of research studies on the psychosocial aspects of adolescent suicide in Lithuania. This study aimed to evaluate demographics, life circumstances, and health conditions as factors related to suicide attempt in adolescents. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed at the Children’s Hospital (Vilnius University Santara Clinics). Medical documentation of adolescents treated in this hospital after suicide attempts from January 2011 to April 2018 were analyzed. Results: There were 117 cases of hospitalization due to suicide attempts during this period, and 102 cases were included in the study. There were 83.8% female and 16.2% male patients with an average age of 15.02 ± 1.9 years (p = 0.405); 40.6% of patients lived in divorced families, 17.7% lived in orphanages, 4.2% lived in foster care, 36.4% suffered from parental alcoholism, and 17.2% experienced suicide in their close surroundings. They had comorbidities (girls 72.5%, boys 68.8%), mostly depression (31.3%), were suffering from bullying (54.1%) or violence (26.0%), and 85.4% showed signs of other types of self-harm (girls more often (p < 0.001)). Most of them chose to cut for suicide attempts (86.0% girls, 56.2% boys). In 52.8% of cases, the attempt was spontaneous and 34% relapsed. Thirty-four events occurred in March (18.9%) (p = 0.688). Conclusions: Our study revealed the possible circumstances related to adolescent suicide attempt. Female gender was more common overall and males were more likely to carry out more potentially lethal methods. Other common associated factors were a lack of prosperity in family life, experience of bullying, violence, comorbidities, and the early spring period. Signs of any self-harm could be an indicator of later suicide attempt.

Research findings in secondary schools have consistently indicated that geometry is one of the most difficult areas of Mathematics at basic level and students’ attitude towards it has been a factor that is known to influence students’ achievement in mathematics. The purpose of this study is to investigate the level of students’ attitude towards geometry and to find out whether gender difference influences such attitude. Some selected secondary schools in Zamfara state were used for the study. The study adopted a descriptive survey design using a questionnaire tagged Geometric Attitude Questionnaire. The population of the study consisted of SS I students in Zamfara state. A sample of 157students was drawn using simple random sampling technique. Descriptive statistics of means and standard deviations were used to answer the research questions while Inferential Statistics of the Mann-Whitney test was used to test the formulated hypothesis. The study revealed that students’ attitude towards geometry was relatively high generally, with male students having much higher positive attitude to geometry than their female counterparts and that difference between them was not statistically significant at α = 0.05 level of significance. It is recommended that teachers should be resourceful in encouraging and helping students in order to build positive attitude by trying to relate geometry to real life situations and also be gender sensitive.
Self-Report Fatigue Management for Instrumental Musicians: A Delphi Survey
Authors: McCrary J. Matt , Altenmüller Eckart
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND: Mismanagement of fatigue and playing load have been consistently identified as risk factors for playing-related pain and injuries. Studies in sport demonstrate that fatigue management strategies can predict and prevent overuse syndromes and related injuries through consistent
assessment of playing load and physical/psychological stress. Self-report strategies show particular responsiveness to both the short and long-term impacts of training. No equivalent fatigue management strategies exist for musicians. Establish key items and feasibility parameters to inform
the development of a self-report fatigue management tool for musicians. METHODS: A working party of international experts in musicians’ medicine was invited to complete a two-phase Delphi survey. In Phase I, working party members rated established items from sport (REST-Q subscales with
demonstrated responsiveness to both acute and chronic training stresses) with respect to relevance and prospective utility for musicians. Members could also propose additional items and were asked to indicate a maximum feasible questionnaire length. In Phase II, working party members ranked
top performing items from Phase I. Consensus best items were determined based on Phase II rankings. RESULTS: A 28-member working party was assembled (15 clinicians, 13 researchers). Of 20 researcher proposed items and 58 working party proposed items, 5 items met consensus criteria: I had pain;
I had to play too much; I felt physically fit; I did not get enough sleep; I recovered well physically. A strong majority (89%) of working party members indicated that regular use of a fatigue questionnaire with up to 10 items is feasible. CONCLUSIONS: Key questionnaire items and feasibility
parameters for a novel fatigue management tool for musicians are established. Future research in musicians is needed to validate study results and this novel fatigue management tool.
