Authors: Helle Nikolina , Vikman Miriam Dubland , Dahl-Michelsen Tone , Lie Silje Stangeland 
Published: August 2023

Background
Virtual reality is used to an increasing extent in various fields and is now making inroads into health and social education. Virtual reality simulation can provide a safe and controlled environment for students to practice and master skills that are transferable to real-world situations without putting patients, clients, or themselves at risk of any harm. Virtual reality simulation using 360° videos represents a novel approach to simulation in health care and social work education, and this inspired our interest in exploring students’ experiences with such a learning activity.

Objective
The aim of this study was to explore occupational therapy, social education, nursing, and social work students’ experiences with virtual reality simulation as a learning activity in an interdisciplinary subject.

Methods
The data were collected through 6 semistructured focus groups with 28 students. We conducted the focus groups after the students from the 4 education programs had participated in the virtual reality simulation at 3 campuses at a specialized university in Norway. Each focus group interview was facilitated by 1 moderator and 1 facilitator, a combination of experienced researchers and novices. We followed a qualitative design using the 6-step thematic analysis described by Braun and Clarke.

Results
The analysis revealed 3 overall themes for students’ experiences with the virtual reality simulation. The first theme, 360° videos provide observations for individual learning, illustrates how learning can take place through the students’ experiences with sensory inputs and observations from the 360° videos. Students experienced that the video enabled them to individually reflect and achieve learning from what was considered a clinically relevant video. The second theme, 360° videos activate emotional learning, demonstrates how the students experienced emotional engagement when watching the 360° videos. The degree of realism provided in the video was considered as important for the students’ learning. The last theme, Debrief sessions enhance comprehensive learning, pinpoints how the students experienced learning through reflective discussions with other students after watching the 360° videos. Students claimed this process to be a vital part of the learning activity.

Conclusions
Virtual reality simulation represents a promising learning activity to enhance the professional learning of health care and social work students. It offers opportunities for individualized learning through observations, and it also engages students emotionally in the learning process. The combination of 360° videos and group discussions in virtual reality appears promising to enhance professional learning outcomes and competence, which may contribute to improved health care and social work services.

Published: August 2023

One of the popular studies recently is about social robots that have been implemented in several public areas such as offices. The robot is an employee or worker assistant robot in the Telkom Surabaya Institute of Technology building to help carry out the work of delivering packages to the destination according to the tasks given. The problem that often occurs is an error in the robot's localization system causing the robot's movement to the target point to experience a position error. This research contributes to the comparative evaluation of 2 localization methods on mobile robots, namely the first is the use of a rotary encoder sensor and the second is the use of sensor fusion based on the extended Kalman filter implemented on the robot prototype. This study aims to develop a sensor system that is adapted to the design of the robot and the environment in which the robot is tested and to find out the comparison of the two methods. The use of extended Kalman filter-based sensor fusion can provide more accurate results in robot localization, especially when moving on complex paths. Sensor fusion enables the combination of several sensors such as rotary encoders and IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensors to provide more complete and accurate information about the position and orientation of the robot. In this study, sensor fusion successfully reduced the localization error of the robot to 0.63 m when moving straight and 0.29 m when moving on a complex path, compared to the use of a single sensor which resulted in a larger error of 0.89 m. Based on the study that has been conducted, it can be considered as a potential solution in the development of other social robots to improve the accuracy and performance of the robots when performing certain tasks in the future.
On the Issue of Developing Mechanisms to Reduce the Impact of Asymmetric Information on the Banking Services Market of the Russian Federation
Authors: Barakshin A. A. 
Published: August 2023

The article presents the results of a study to identify mechanisms to reduce the impact of asymmetric information on the Russian banking services market. It is shown that the asymmetry of information tends to increase due to the increasing digitalization of the banking sector of the economy market. Such a trend reduces confidential communication between participants in a lending transaction, entails greater risk and variability.One of the mechanisms to overcome the information asymmetry, which is manifested in the unfavorable selection of borrowers (individuals or legal entities) in the banking services market of the Russian Federation, is monetary regulation by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The refinancing rate is a powerful mechanism for eliminating the effect of “unfavorable incentive motivation”.The levels of monopolization and competition are determined through the Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI), which fixes the competitiveness of banks and their concentration ratio (CR). To understand the contribution of economic information to identifying the mechanism for reducing the impact of its asymmetry, thirty leading banks of the Russian Federation were analyzed in the context of changes in the level of their overdue debt (AR), which can be one of the indicators of information about the borrower. The results of the study can be used to minimize the effect of information asymmetry in the Russian banking market.

Objectives:
The hyalinizing trabecular tumor (HTT) is a rare benign neoplasm of the thyroid gland. This neoplasm has overlapping cytological features with Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma, Medullary Carcinoma and Follicular Neoplasm with Nuclear Features of Papillary Carcinoma. This can lead to misdiagnosis of malignancy in fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology specimens with unnecessary total thyroidectomy. The aim of this study is to determine if there are some cytological features that could help us to suspect HTT on FNA specimens and avoid radical surgery.

Material and Methods:
With this purpose we have collected 6 cases diagnosed of HTT in Hospital Clínico San Carlos of Madrid (Spain) in the last 10 years and reviewed the cytological specimens.

Result:
We conclude that the presence of hyaline material in FNA specimens of HTT is a constant feature being a diagnostic clue. We must be cautious not to confuse it with dense colloid or amyloid material, the latter seen in Medullary Carcinoma. Papillary architecture and fibrovascular cores are not present in a HTT. Special stains as ki-67, calcitonin and Congo Red staining could help us in achieving the correct diagnosis.

Conclusion:
We feel the cytopathologists must be aware of the distinguishing features of this lesion, mainly the typical hyaline material to achieve a proper diagnosis and be able to reduce unnecessary aggressive management of these patients.

El aula invertida como estrategia en la enseñanza híbrida: Una propuesta orientada al desarrollo del aprendizaje activo
Authors: Rodríguez Núñez José Alejandro 
Published: August 2023

Tradicionalmente, los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje han sido desarrollados desde la teoría hacia la práctica, convertida el aula en un espacio magistral donde prevalece el método expositivo por parte del docente. En efecto, el control epistemológico se centra en el maestro, quien teoriza, conceptualiza y explica. En ese sentido, los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje requieren de una reinvención estratégica por parte de la planificación del docente y la acción del estudiante. Es por ello que se propone un proyecto áulico innovador, encaminado al desarrollo de estrategias en las que el discente se convierta en un ente activo y deje de ser un receptor de informaciones. En vista de lo planteado, el objetivo de este escrito es presentar el relato de la implementación del aula invertida durante la modalidad de enseñanza híbrida, con el fin de reflexionar sobre sus posibles implicaciones en el desarrollo del aprendizaje activo. Para ello se partirá de la metodología de aprendizaje activo y el aula invertida. El enfoque metodológico empleado en esta propuesta es de carácter cualitativo, pues se pretende observar, describir y ponderar la participación del estudiantado correspondiente a una sección del curso de Español. En definitiva, los resultados de esta propuesta llevan a la innovación de un cambio activo en la docencia, exaltando dos cualidades significativas: autonomía en el estudiantado y creatividad en el profesorado. Esto se implementa sin distinción de la disciplina, grado, ciclo o nivel; lo que permite que esta sea una propuesta abierta, dinámica, integral y transversal.
