Published: October 2024

BackgroundIn basketball training, self-evaluation plays a crucial role in the decision-making and execution of movements of players. The self-evaluation of players is influenced by their perception of own basketball ability and self-confidence state. This study aimed to explore potential discrepancies between self-confidence levels of players and their decision-making performance, while also characterizing different types of players.MethodData was collected from 20 youth basketball players who participated in a decision-making video task and a self-confidence assessment. Based on data from their self-confidence and decision-making awareness assessment, the K-means cluster analysis was used to categorize the players into different groups. Then, ANOVA and post hoc Scheffe test were conducted to compare these clusters.ResultsThe cluster analysis identified four distinct profiles of players and the results of the ANOVA and post hoc Scheffe tests revealed significant differences between the four clusters. The “High Self-confidence &amp; Low Decision-making Awareness” players might display an overconfident mindset, while the “High Self-confidence &amp; High Decision-making Awareness” players potentially demonstrated the better performance and maintained a consistent and confident attitude. The “Low Self-confidence &amp; High Decision-making Awareness” players appeared to lack confidence and needed to foster greater faith in their abilities. Finally, the “Low Self-confidence &amp; Low Decision-making Awareness” players required a long-term and comprehensive training program to improve their skills.DiscussionThese preliminary findings informed the development of a self-evaluation matrix, designed to help coaches better understand player profiles and design tailored interventions. Moreover, this study contributes on sport calibration and enhances understanding of the behavioral and psychological states of players.

A Doença Pulmonar Obstrutiva Crônica (DPOC) é uma das principais causas de morbidade e mortalidade no mundo e representa um enorme desafio da saúde pública. O principal fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de DPOC é o tabagismo, contudo, nos últimos anos tem crescido novas evidências do diagnóstico de DPOC em não fumantes. A apresentação clínica da DPOC em não fumantes pode ser diferente dos fumantes. A policitemia secundária é reconhecida como uma complicação importante da DPOC que é pouco estudada. Nossa revisão narrativa da literatura teve como objetivos determinar a prevalência de DPOC em não fumantes e suas etiologias, avaliar a prevalência de policitemia secundária nesta população de pneumopatas não fumantes e descrever os mecanismos fisiopatológicos da policitemia secundária. Concluímos que a prevalência de DPOC em não fumantes oscila entre 2,5% e 30 % com vários fatores etiológicos envolvidos. A prevalência de policitemia secundária em pneumopatas não fumantes é pouco estudada com a maioria dos estudos incluindo fumantes ativos ou ex-fumantes e sua prevalência oscila entre 2,0% e 11,7% sofrendo influência de diversos fatores. Os mecanismos fisiopatológicos da policitemia secundária em pneumopatas não fumantes foram descritos.

Published: October 2024

“Serious Games” is a final-year 20 credit point module, undertaken as the default optional module for students on Undergraduate courses entitled BSc Computing and BSc Computer Science (Games Technology) at Nottingham Trent University, UK. The module focuses on developing students’ critical evaluation skills, enhancing their ability to design and implement solutions for a real-world design brief, working with clients and making final products accessible to a broad target audience. Historically this was achieved through engagement with a single client, often via a wider research project or local educational establishment of some sort. More recently, the module has retained two client project briefs, which the students are then empowered to choose between. With each client brief the module team has sought to add extra value for the students. For the previous two academic years, the module team has partnered with Green Academy, a strategic team within the University whose priorities include stimulating pedagogical innovation and practice sharing within the area of sustainability and pioneering a shared understanding of sustainability education. The resulting partnership has introduced a brief for students which combines vital industry skills with sustainability literacy. Working with and alongside the students who are undertaking the module, the module has developed Serious Games on a diverse range of local and global sustainability issues and has exposed students to university research culture and our sustainability research specialisms. It has also necessitated that students engage with and contextualise the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the UNESCO ESD competencies which they are tasked with integrating into their design solutions. The long-term intent of this partnership is for these design decisions to be utilised in the Green Academy’s ongoing strategy to further enhance the University’s pedagogical framework and sustainability education offer, and to improve the provision of Serious Games for use by clients outside the University. This report is a synoptic overview of the module design and insights from the two-year partnership as well as how these observations have been leveraged to improve the design and delivery of the module for future clients and students.

Game-based learning (GBL) and gamification can improve the learning experience of students by making learning more fun, interesting, and motivating. However, integrating games in practice is challenging for many teachers as it requires competences that not necessarily are part of their teaching repertoire. Game-based pedagogy (GBP) refers to the teaching methods and learning processes involved in learning with games. Research stresses the need for adequate professional development and teacher education on GBP. However, there is a lack of empirical knowledge on effective methods to prepare pre-service and in-service teachers for using game-based learning. The aim of our research is to gain insight into the design of effective GBP learning experiences for teachers. The guiding research question was: What design elements of a course on GBL impacted in-service teachers' GBP competences and teaching practice? We investigated this question in the context of a teacher education program in the Fall 2023. We conducted an empirical study in which a course on GBL was designed, implemented, and evaluated in practice. The participants were 16 in-service secondary teachers from different disciplines in secondary education, from which 13 agreed to participate in this study, and three course leaders. We investigated participants’ and course leaders’ experiences, participants’ competences in GBP, the impact on participants’ teaching practice and the way design elements contributed to it. The data consisted of participant reflections, transcripts from participants and course leaders’ interviews and answers to a questionnaire. The data was collected and analysed using quantitative and qualitative methods between January and April 2024. Results reveal that in-service teachers’ improved their competences on GBP and increased their use of GBL in practice. Qualitative data analysis provides insight into the course's design elements and on participants’ learning process. This study contributes to GBP-education by offering a possible design solution and framework for developing effective teacher education.

9.5 per cent of people aged between 15 and 29 in Norway are ‘not in education, employment or training’ (NEET) (Statistisk sentralbyrå, 2022). NEET status is generally associated with several negative factors, such as lack of social mobility, poverty, negative socioeconomic status and persistent exclusion from education and work life (Wrigley, 2017). Work exclusion represents a significant challenge on both a macroeconomic level and for the individuals who experience work exclusion. The perspective of computer games as learning tools has resulted in an increased interest in how games can generate positive changes in the player (Gee, 2007; McGonigal, 2012). From the perspective of career guidance, it is central to look at whether the positive changes and the learning such change implies can be used to develop career competencies and skills that are attractive for the world of work. This paper reports on a project to develop, conduct, study and evaluate an occupational training program for 15 young gamers between the ages of 18 and 30 classified as NEET. The research question for the project is how participants in a work preparation course experience computer gaming as an arena for developing career competencies and skills and how these skills and competencies may contribute to the participants’ employability

Published: October 2024

Sustainable Development (SD) has been in the EU’s political Agenda for the past decades. In 2001, the EU established a SD Strategy and more recently contributed to the UN’s 2030 Agenda for SD, reaffirming the political importance it attributes to this pressing matter. Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) plays a vital role in pushing forward the Agenda for SD. The WAE-SD project has been designed so as to offer a variety of complementary learning solutions that use active learning, game-based learning, and storytelling, among others. These solutions have the potential to engage children, address more complex concepts in a comprehensive manner, contribute to the development of other XXI century and basic competencies, like literacy, teamwork, social competences, ICT skills, among others. The WAE-SD project addresses the educational needs of children (6-10 years old) at 3 levels: a) Envision the future: depict what might happen if we don’t change our lifestyles, so that they better understand what’s at stake, b) What needs to change: learn about the UN’s SD Goals, so that they better understand what should be addressed/emended to create a more sustainable world, and c) Call to Action: learn what we can do as individuals and as part of a community to reach the UN’s SD Goals, and act. To this purpose, the project delivers three results: a) an eBook to illustrate a future scenario for the Planet if we keep up with our lifestyle, b) A Game Add-on to the pre-existing WeAreEurope Digital Game, to introduce and explore the UN’s SD Goals, thus presenting children with what needs to be changed for a more sustainable Planet, and c) an Action Kit, consisting of guidelines for the implementation of SD projects/activities for schools and other settings, thus promoting real change in behaviours and attitudes. This paper focuses on the designed material and the proposed ways of utilizing them in classroom settings
