A cross-programme vertically integrated communication and professionalisation curriculum, adapted from pharmacy for nursing
Authors: Wiskin Connie , Weetman Katie , Chizzo Jacob 
Published: November 2022

The Clinical Communication Team at the University of Birmingham are undertaking an ambitious project where students across all healthcare programmes will interact within a single virtual healthcare community – ‘Wood Brooke’ – via simulation activities. The vertical nature of the programme means students can ‘follow’ the illness/life journeys of a series of families that they meet early in the course over a 3–4 year timeframe. Additionally, they can meet and interact with simulated healthcare professionals working in Wood Brooke’s virtual primary, community, and secondary care facilities. Wood Brooke is already well-established throughout our 4-year Pharmacy degree, being integrated into teaching and testing not just for communication, but linked to other clinical aspects of the Programme. We will share our model, and experiences, successes, and challenges.
Recently Wood Brooke was adapted for Birmingham’s 3-year BNurs programme as a vertically integrated clinical communication/professionalisation strand. It is well documented that nursing students should be trained in patient-centred communication [1]. Students from Adult, Child, and Mental Health Nursing mix in the sessions for intra-professional learning and breadth of peer support and feedback. Sessions in Year 1 focus on cases relating to three families from Wood Brooke from patient and relative/carer perspectives. Year 2 builds on the simulation to consider intra and interprofessional colleague interactions in community-based and acute settings through telephone and face to face role play simulation. This builds on the 3 family cases introduced in the first year, introducing other members within the family. Year 3 is under development.
Feedback from learners about the Programme has been positive. This is not a research project so we will not be presenting ‘data’. A result in progress is rolling Wood Brooke out to other Programmes, including Medicine and Dentistry, as part of curriculum review. Discussion may focus on the potential benefits of healthcare students having shared visibility of patient narratives/experiences where that patient is accessing care under more than one service.
Inclusivity and designing a ‘community’ reflective of the population has been central. The vertical development of patient narratives over several years enables adaption of the programme to meet new priorities and needs (including, e.g., shift to remote working for COVID-19, and evolving patient demographics).

The experiencing sensory overload project (ESOP): developing an immersive simulation experience for healthcare professionals.
Authors: Poultney Susan , Wedgbury Kirsty 
Published: November 2022

Atypical sensory processing is described as a difficulty in regulating and managing sensory input in a meaningful, ordered way to make sense of the world and environment in which you find yourself. Sensory processing disorder (SPD) is common in individuals with autism, pervasive development disorders, and neurodivergent conditions [1,2,3]. The National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) [2] suggest sensory processing disorders are often overlooked by education, social, and healthcare professionals, leading to health and social inequalities with individuals less able to access ‘support and services that they need to live independently’ [2 p5]. The Experiencing Sensory Overload Project (ESOP) aims to champion inclusive practice and reduce health inequalities by encouraging and enabling healthcare professionals to reconsider their approach, and their working environments to create sensorily safe spaces for individuals who may experience sensory overload.
The authors recognised there was insufficient education on SPD within the current nursing curriculum. To address this theory/practice gap, training was sought externally. This consisted of a short simulation-based activity with training delivered by carers who had experience of sensory overload. This was well evaluated by the student participants; however lecturing staff felt the training did not meet our university teaching and learning standards. The positive student feedback provided the impetus to forge links with digital arts colleagues to co-create a robust, pedagogically sound and immersive learning experience.
The collaborative journey of ESOP has been led and facilitated by academics from the School of Nursing and Midwifery and the School of Arts in a cross-school alliance (
Immersive learning experiences that recognise and champion diversity must be integrated into the curricular of all healthcare professionals to promote the highest standards of patient care. Meeting this demand with innovative, immersive technology demands collaborative working. This cross-school alliance has produced a learning experience that can work towards reducing health inequalities, promoting independence, and championing inclusive practice.

Preparing final year medical students for their transition to foundation year 1 using simulation
Authors: Obadahun Wuraola , Matary Rania El , Warburton Sean 
Published: November 2022

The transition from medical student to Foundation Year 1 (FY1) doctor represents a vital stage in the development of a newly qualified doctor. It is well established that medical students struggle with this transition [1]. There is evidence that simulation-based education (SBE) improves competence and confidence [2]. At our Trust, medical students undergo a Transition to Foundation Year 1 (TTF1) placement to prepare them for their upcoming roles. This study’s aim was to improve the confidence of final year medical students beginning their FY1 jobs in August 2022 by introducing them to common FY1 situations like prioritising tasks, handing over, being part of the on-call team, and practising clinical skills to improve patient safety as per the General Medical Council (GMC) outcomes for graduates [3]. We designed and implemented a simulation-based training day during their TTF1 placement.
We collected feedback from a focus group of nine final year medical students regarding what would help best prepare them. We mapped these against their medical school’s curriculum and the GMC’s framework [3]. They reported they were inadequately prepared for FY1 and all agreed to have a training day covering different domains to increase their confidence. We designed a TTF1 training day that included lecture-based teaching on how to survive FY1, three scenarios based on common FY1 situations and a teaching session on ultrasound guided cannulation. The training day was delivered to five cohorts (29 medical students) during their TTF1 placements in 2022. During this training day, medical students completed a pre- and post-programme questionnaire which measured self-reported changes in confidence levels via a 5-point Likert scale across domains: verifying deaths, prioritising tasks, cannulation, handing over, and being part of the on-call team. The questionnaire also explored their expectations of the day and what they had learnt from the day. This was analysed using the framework analysis.
Quantitative results revealed: increased preparedness for their FY1 role (+24%; <0.001) and being part of the on-call team (+58.7%; p<0.001), increased confidence in prioritising tasks (+28.6%; <0.001), verifying deaths (+131.5%: <0.001), and cannulation (+50%; <0.001). Analysis of qualitative results revealed common themes of improved confidence in ultrasound guided cannulation, increased knowledge-base, clearer understanding of handling common FY1 situations, and 100% of participants agreed that this training day was useful.
The implementation of a TTF1 training day proved to increase the students’ confidence and levels of preparedness for their upcoming jobs.

ECONOMIÍA AGRÍCOLA AMBIENTAL DEL AGUA USADA EN LA PRODUCCIÓN A CIELO ABIERTO Y CON DESTINO AL MERCADO NACIONAL DEL CULTIVO DE DURAZNO (Prunus pérsica L.) PRODUCIDO EN CHIHUAHUA, MÉXICO
Authors: Guerra Andrea Natalia Suárez , Triana Jorge Martínez , Flores José Luis Rios 
Published: November 2022

Los objetivos fueron determinar la eficiencia (E) y productividad (P) en términos físicos (F), económicos (E) y sociales (S) del agua (A) usada en la producción del cultivo de durazno (Prunus persica L. Batsch) en Chihuahua en 2020 y contrastarle en contra de la eficiencia y productividad del agua en diversos cultivos. Se utilizaron las ecuaciones matemáticas de eficiencia y productividad del agua de Rios et al (2015, 2018) para un cultivo en lo individual así como a nivel agregado para un cúmulo de cultivos en un patrón agrícola. Se alimentaron las ecuaciones con datos productivos a nivel comercial de SIAP y costos por hectárea de FIRA. Se determinó que la EFA, EEA y ESA fueron 450 L kg-1, 1.30 m3 por USD de ganancia y 18,254 m3 empleo-1 respectivamente, mientras que los indicadores de PFA, PEA y PSA fueron 2.22 kg m-3, USD 770,772 de ganancia por hm3 y 54.8 empleos hm-3 respectivamente. Se determinó que la PEA del durazno (USD 770,772 hm-3) fue casi cinco veces superior a la PEA del nogal pecanero (Carya illinoensis) del estado (USD 130,000 hm-3), 20% superior a la de la manzana (Malus domestica) del estado (USD 620,000 hm-3), y casi 149 veces superior a la PEA de la leche bovina producida por el sistema semi-especializado de Parral, Chihuahua (USD 5,155 hm-3), asimismo, en la PSA salió bien librado el cultivo al igual que en la PEA, pues el uso de un hm3 de agua en la producción generó más empleos en durazno (54.8 empleo hm-3 =100%) que el empleo que ese volumen de agua habría producido en otros cultivos, como manzana (42%), nogal de Chihuahua (16%), granada roja (83%), cacahuate (34%), pero generó apenas el 44% del empleo que ese mismo hm3 de agua habría generado si se lo invirtiese en la producción de leche bovina del sistema semi-especializado de Parral, con 122.6 empleos hm-3.
Polyimides Based on Feedstocks from Renewable Sources
Authors: Šusterová Michaela , Sysel Petr 
Published: November 2022

Aromatic polyimides constitute a group of special polymers with excellent thermal and mechanical properties. However, they are insoluble and infusible due to strong intermolecular interactions. For this reason, approaches are sought that would lead to an improvement of these properties and open the possibility to extend the use of polyimides. The interest to protect the environment leads also to searching for an alternative, namely, recent feedstocks, which could replace the fossil ones. This work is focused on the use of potentially recent monomers for synthesis of polyimides and their properties.
Materialidades y expresividad en cortometrajes latinoamericanos con técnicas de animación stop motion
Authors: Curatitoli María-Constanza 
Published: November 2022

La animación independiente de autor resulta una ventana abierta a un espacio multiforme de exploraciones técnicas, temáticas y estilísticas. Con narrativas condensadas bajo el formato de cortometraje, la práctica de animación permite poner en cuadro diálogos y tensiones entre materiales empleados, convenciones sobre modos de hacer y rupturas a enunciados predominantes en otras expresiones artísticas.
La riqueza de las imágenes que conforman el corpus de este artículo invita a dirigir la mirada al uso de los diversos materiales que construyen los universos de cada cortometraje. Revisaremos la construcción de la puesta en escena y la función expresiva de las materialidades en tanto objeto expresivo dentro de cuatro cortometrajes independientes latinoamericanos: Padre (Grasso, 2013, Argentina), Bestia (Covarrubias, 2021, Chile), Guaxuma (Normande, 2018, Brasil) y Carne (Kater, 2019, Brasil). Si bien los dos cortometrajes brasileños presentan una mixtura de técnicas, el énfasis estará puesto en la animación stop motion presente en los cuatro casos de estudio.

A Review of Gender in the 21st Century: Fighting Dangerous Stereotypes
Authors: Pallathadka Laxmi Kirana , Pallathadka Harikumar , Devi Shoraisam Kiranbhala 
Published: November 2022

Gender is a condition of being a male or female. Much of the time, it is generally defined by social and social distinctions rather than biological differences. Gender stereotype generalizations are currently present for life. Even though a disposition to mess up a part of the present gender stereotypes-related platitude occurs due to late unreasonably being insufficient to deal with the issues that comprise gender lays out. Whereas generally, females wind up being casualties of gender stereotypes, males experience the adverse effects of criminal offenses associated with maleness. Women's works tend to be predominantly traditional and less prestigious, while personalities are predominantly shy and passive characterization. Women are primarily engaged in domestic and in-house jobs, while men are more likely to exist in specialist facilities. There appears to be a systematic under-representation of women, regardless of whether we consider the text or images. The study shows a point of view for the effect of gender stereotypes and the progression of female stereotypes in the 21st century.

Authors: Manzano-Sánchez David , Belando-Pedreño Noelia , Jiménez-Parra José Francisco , Valero-Valenzuela Alfonso 
Published: November 2022

The aim of the present study was to analyze the motivational profile of high school students and how it was related to responsibility, basic psychological needs and school social climate, as well as to assess gender differences. For this purpose, a total sample of 302 students (M = 14.48; SD = 1.40) participated and were administered a multiple-choice questionnaire, where, in turn, gender and date of birth were asked. A profile analysis was performance using Ward’s method and k-means using the motivation scale (intrinsic motivation, identified, introjected and external regulation, amotivation) as variables for its elaboration. Two cluster profiles were finally created and named: a) “high motivation and low amotivation” (n = 212); b) “low motivation and high amotivation” (n = 95). Next, a multivariate analysis was performed, which showed that high motivation profile had statistically significant results at p < .001, higher in the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs of autonomy, competence and relatedness, personal and social responsibility and school social climate. On the other hand, attending to gender, no significant differences were found in the number of students in the profiles after analyzing the standardized residuals. It is concluded that an increase in self-determined motivation can be associated to an improvement in basic psychological needs, responsibility and school social climate, regardless of the student’s gender.
Poverty alleviation through Inclusive Growth in Africa: The dynamic capability of trade
Authors: Kwame Agbanyo George , Safi Lunkamba Gracia 
Published: November 2022

The African continent has experienced sustained growth since 2000, which has led to the "emergence of Africa". However, the continent also ranked second in the world in terms of income inequality, after Latin America. This has raised concerns about the inclusiveness of African growth. The inclusiveness of growth is receiving increased attention in both academic and decision-making circles, with several definitions and means of measurement being proposed, which will tend to reveal a lack of unanimity. This work is made up of two parts. The first assesses the measurement of inclusive growth and the second assesses the relationship and the role of trade in promoting inclusive growth.
For this paper, the degree of inclusiveness of African growth was calculated using the unified method of measuring inclusive growth based on 33 African countries over a period of 2000-2018. The findings show a slightly inclusive growth as a result of a rise in economic growth and a slight fall in inequality. The inquiry concerning the function of trade as one of the fundamental supporters of growth presents two ways that commercial exchange can impact inclusive development. 1) An indirect but significant route through GDP. 2) The direct benefits of trade on every social class, without the intervention of GDP growth. The linear regression reports non-significant results, indicating the indirect relationship between GDP growth and inclusive growth. The results imply that in addition to trade, as an important contributor to inclusive growth, there are other parameters like economic policies and development interventions.
Study on performance of solar energy interseasonal heat storage ground source heat pump system in cold region
Authors: Dou Zihui , Liu Jingxia , Li Baoli , Yang Peihong , Zhang Zilei 
Published: November 2022

In order to solve the problem of soil heat imbalance caused by winter heat load much higher than summer cooling load in severe cold areas of China, TRNSYS simulation software was used to analyze the performance of solar energy interseasonal regenerative ground source heat pump system in a hospital in Baotou City. The results show that COP and EER of the two heat pump units have little difference on a typical day, and the heating and cooling effect of the heat pump is relatively stable. Within ten years of operation of the inter-seasonal heat storage system, the soil temperature increased from 10℃ to 10.68℃, and the soil temperature of the solar-ground source heat pump composite system decreased to 5.62℃. At this time, the COP of interseasonal heat storage model was 3.25, up 2.2% year-on-year. It can be concluded that the solar energy cross-season heat storage mode can effectively alleviate the soil heat imbalance and improve the heat performance coefficient of the heat pump.
Study on the mechanical properties of desert sand concrete
Authors: Liao Taichang , Zhao Hui , Yuan Jie , Ren Shaoqiang , Cai He 
Published: November 2022

In this paper, the manufactured sand was replaced by desert sand with contents to prepare desert sand concrete with different grades. Then the compressive strength, axial compressive strength, static compressive elastic modulus and axial tensile strength of desert sand concrete were tested to analyze the influence of desert sand replacement rate on the mechanical properties of concrete at different ages and different grades. It was shown that the negative influence of desert sand on the compressive strength of concrete would be increased with the increase of concrete grade, and the influence increased with the increase of age. The addition of sand would be resulted in the decrease of axial compressive strength and static elastic modulus of concrete, and with the increase of concrete grade, the strength would be decreased obviously. The addition of desert sand had no significant effect on the axial tensile strength of concrete in general.
