The involvement of mental health service users in a Higher Institution prevention and management of violence and aggression (PMVA) team's training delivery is a recognition of the contribution that the unique insights of people's lived experience can make to the development of practitioners. This research aimed to determine whether or not their contribution to PMVA training delivery influenced the staff management of patients' anger or aggression on mental health wards. The qualitative description research design was adopted for the study. Focus group interviews were used to collect data from final year mental health students and new trust staff, while semi-structured interviews were employed to collect data from experienced trust staff. A sample of feedback from previous training records was reviewed. The findings showed that: the students and new trust staff were determined to translate lessons learnt into practice; the experienced staff were reflecting lessons in ward practices; the feedback records held expressed intentions to translate lessons into practice; there were hindrances in practicing as discussed with service users. The findings confirmed those from other studies claiming that service user involvement in the education of professionals has the potential to improve practice.

Postsecondary cooperative (PSE co-op) education is a structured method of combining classroom-based education with practical work experience, for which Ontario is termed a &quot;hot bed.&quot; Adopting a mixed-methods design, this study explores the status and characteristics of Ontario's PSE co-op in the national and the global contexts through the knowledge map analyses. Then, with three case studies at University of Waterloo, Brock University, and University of Victoria, it examines particular aspects of Ontario's PSE co-op concerning some significant questions such as what exactly distinguishes PSE co-op in Ontario, what can be done--especially with new &quot;work-integrated learning&quot; ideas and approaches--to continuously improve this type of experiential education, and how co-op education can be steered to better meet the changing needs in the 21st century.

Leaders in the healthcare sector, frequently find themselves attempting to improve service provision by adopting evidence based-best practices, as requested by policy. Notwithstanding, change implementation is often not straight forward. As an insider-turned-researcher I initiated a Maltese National Healthcare Service-wide doctoral inquiry into the lived experience of leaders during change and transition, to gain insight into which leadership styles and managerial skills characterise an effective transition leader from a psychotherapeutic perspective. The inquiry was divided into two phases, using mixed methods with an action-research element. Arising themes indicating the need for individual proactive self-actualisation, development at an emotional-transferential level and the undoing of identity following organizational/personal shifts, provided a platform for the co-creation of a Training Manual focusing on self-reflexivity. Training using the Manual was offered to the participants facilitating their looking more closely at how power relations stalled personal and organisational growth by hindering change implementation processes. Encountering the need to unblock shame, some met impasse, others modified their underlying metaphor/identity enhancing a change in behaviour while retaining the power inherent in their previous identity, while others yet noted that the training enhanced their managerial skills. The Training Manual was well received in the healthcare field and beyond. The results of the inquiry suggest that self-reflexivity is an essential element when planning training for leaders and that self-actualisation, and self-reflexivity are essential managerial competences supporting transitions while enhancing creativity and interdependence. This implies that self-reflexivity needs to be introduced in mainstream managerial training.

The aim of this study is to examine the records of secondary education institutions' disciplinary committee decisions, and to put forth the reasons why high school students are punished, and which punishments are given. The distribution of these punishments in terms of students' grade, school type and gender is also explored in the study. In this qualitative case study, the data were collected through document analysis. The study group of the study consists of nine high schools located in a district of a province in the Aegean region of Turkey. The data in the study consist of 384 disciplinary cases recorded in the disciplinary board minute books and e-school between 2016-2020 years. Content analysis was performed on the data. In the 384 disciplinary cases registered in schools, the most frequent punishment is condemnation. The disciplinary punishments are mostly concentrated on male students by gender, in 9th grade students by grade level, and in vocational and technical high school types by school type.

This study investigates EFL Saudi male and female learners' and tutors' attitudes and practices in the Writing Centers at the College of Languages and Translation (CLTWCs) at Al-Imam Muhammad Ibn Saud Islamic University to determine the effectiveness of such centers. In fact, understanding EFL learners' needs is believed to eliminate some of the persistent writing challenges for such learners; and therefore this study seeks to explore the relatively new established CLTWCs to improve their services. Thus, in order to answer the study's two questions regarding the attitudes and practices of both tutors and learners, a cross-sectional quantitative research design was adopted by designing and administering two questionnaires among 29 faculty members (F = 18, M = 11) working in the centers and 217 students (F =112, M=105) visiting them. These questionnaires addressed demographic information, attitudes, and practices in the form of open-ended and/or closed-ended questions along with five Likert-Scale statements. The results showed that learners expressed a highly positive attitude toward the centers which could be attributed to the tutors. These tutors were reported to have excellent performance and professionalism during the sessions they had with the learners in question. Additionally, the findings cautiously suggest the importance of regular visits and motivation for students in order to obtain the desired and expected benefits of the centers.

Society requires education to prepare students with the tools and ability to navigate and find success for unknown futures. Entrepreneurship education has the potential to deliver the relevant curriculum and competencies to support young people to develop resilience, independence, innovation and ability to recognise opportunities to live productive and rewarding lives in this new post COVID-19 environment. Entrepreneurship has been encouraged by government initiatives to address rapidly evolving challenges due to economic disruption. The purpose of this study was to conduct a literature review of entrepreneurship education pedagogy in order to understand the growing evidence of the effectiveness of programmes that support students to act on opportunities that address social, economic, and environmental issues that have arisen in their communities. An analysis of 45 studies across nine countries suggests that although these types of learning opportunities are written into curricula, students rarely experience this type of learning in their schooling. Sustained interest in entrepreneurship through effective methods such as assistance from external trainers and value creation throughout schooling develops students' intent for continued study of entrepreneurship at university. Teachers need opportunities to build confidence, knowledge and capacity to develop effective entrepreneurship education learning experiences that are relevant to today's students' future life challenges.

Textbooks occurring in diverse social settings points to the need to make textbook evaluation in its social context. Many researchers have highlighted the significance of evaluating textbooks in local practices. The present study aims at exploring the suitability of a listening textbook--- A Listening Course (I) published by Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press in terms of content analysis. The analysis of the textbook finds that the general organization of the book, text types, listening tasks and activities are mostly suitable for first-grade English majors, but it still needs improvement on theme interests, authenticity, task options and assessment. Although ALC is a localized textbook, it still mirrors the macrocosm of English language teaching. The findings of this study will shed light on developing listening materials for textbook developers in order to avoid some pitfalls, and enlighten teachers on selecting suitable listening textbooks.

A preview of the international dashboard of trends in education suggests that Open Education Resources (OER) have and will continue to impact the provision of education during institutional closure owing to the global COVID-19 pandemic. However, the toughest question that is often presented to OER promoters regards the pedagogical effectiveness of OER: If education resource users are not cognizant and do not pay for the production, distribution and utilization of the required resources, then, how can the production, distribution and utilization of such resources be effectively used? Basing on data obtained from the system (Kolibri) usage-logs and e-interviews (online conversational interviews) on Zoom which were conducted with twenty five (25) purposively selected teachers, and one hundred (100) students invited from 10 Government-Aided Secondary Schools in Uganda, this study presents a Discourse Analysis (DA) of teachers' use of OER on Kolibri and draws on such insights gained to propose a potentially transformative model for efficient and effective utilization of OER to enhance students' learning outcomes during the COVID-19 schools lockdown.

Many disastrous events have taken place in Turkey, most of which have been of natural origin. When the loss of life and property caused by these disasters is analyzed, the increase in recent years is striking. &quot;Disaster education&quot;, given in order to prevent and the negative consequences of such disasters, is of great importance. Within the Turkish educational system, courses in life sciences, social studies and science, and, in particular, in geography provide some scope for disaster education. At university level, disaster education courses may be offered directly or indirectly in departments of primary education, science, social studies and geography, as well as in specific courses on emergency and disaster management. The aim of this study was to evaluate studies of disaster education from kindergarten to university level. To this end, the document review method, one of the qualitative research techniques, was used. Two doctoral theses, 27 master's theses and 29 scientific articles published between 2003 and 2020 were evaluated. These studies were found as a result of an internet search using the keywords 'disaster' and 'disaster education' in the HEB Thesis database. The data obtained were analyzed using the content analysis method. The studies were evaluated according to the subject, method, findings and results of the research. As a result of the research, it was determined that the studies on disaster education have increased in quality and quantity in recent years. It was observed that studies have been carried out on a number of different subjects, from 'information about disasters' to 'perceptions of disasters' to 'disaster behaviors', but that experimental studies were few in number. In the light of these results, recommendations are made about future disaster education.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the metaphorical conceptions of high school students in Turkey about &quot;learning&quot; and &quot;instruction&quot;. For the selection of the participants, stratified sampling, one of the purposive sampling methods, was adopted. The participating students completed the prompts --which were also the data collection instruments-- &quot;learning is like… because…&quot; and &quot;instruction is like… because…&quot; to indicate their conceptualizations about learning and instruction. The data were analyzed using content analysis technique. In order to ensure the validity of the study, the data analysis process was described in detail, the findings were presented without any comment on, and an expert's opinion was received to confirm whether metaphors under conceptual categories were represented in conceptual category. To ensure the reliability of the findings, a colleague was asked to match sample metaphorical images with the conceptual categories. The results of the study showed that high school students developed a total of 71 valid metaphors clustered under totally nine (five for learning theme and four for instruction theme) main conceptual categories.
