The nursing shortage is of worldwide concern, with student retention acknowledged as a priority. As fundamental step towards exploring factors that can guide the implementation strategic approaches to retain undergraduate students and prevent their attrition, aim this study examine motivation for choosing studies first-year within theoretical framework self-determination theory.
Abstract Background The efficient management of relational competences in healthcare professionals is crucial to ensuring that a patient’s treatment and care process conducted positively. Empathy major component the skills expected health professionals. Knowledge undergraduate students’ empathic abilities important for educators designing specific educational programmes aimed at supporting or enhancing such competences. In this study, we measured first-year nursing attitudes towards...
The spread of new technologies like Augmented Reality and recent technological developments, provide innovative techniques tools that show increasing potential in education. In this paper we will showcase the work implemented within Horizon 2020 European project ARETE (Augmented Interactive Educational System). One pilots aims to investigate for first time introduction AR support a behavioral lesson schools where Positive Behaviour Intervention Support (PBIS) methodology is adopted....
Background The most recent computing technologies can promote the application of evidence-based practice (EBP) in field applied behaviour analysis (ABA). Objective study describes how use technology simplify EBPs ABA. Methods Web Health Application for ADHD Monitoring (WHAAM) demonstrates this following two case studies. We are monitoring dysfunctional behaviours, collecting behavioural data, performing systematic direct observations, creating both visual baseline and intervention charts...
AbstractMobile technologies are becoming ubiquitous in education, yet the wider implications of this phenomenon not well understood. The paper discusses how mobile lifelong learning (mLLL) may be defined, and challenges forging a suitable definition an ever-shifting technological socio-economic landscape. mLLL appears as concept that puts together learning, essentially ensemble didactic practices based on use technologies, general vision education knowledge society. Starting from results...
In the last few years, many educational and therapeutic interventions for young people with neurodevelopmental disorders are based on systematic monitoring of outcomes. These typically conducted using single-case experimental designs, (SCEDs) a set methods aimed at testing effect an intervention single subject or small number subjects. SCEDs, effective process decision-making needs accurate, precise, reliable data but also that caregivers health professionals can gather information minimal...
The main aim of this paper is to propose a model, which can explain Italian regional variability in the PISA 2009 data. In literature, many models have studied impact on scores individual variables, often related gender, socio-economic status, and motivational factors. some cases, other variables been introduced take account particular school characteristics, such as mean level families children attending school, equipment resource distribution, so on. These approaches are largely inadequate...
The aim of this paper is to investigate the use multimodal interfaces as an opportunity for students involved in mobile learning activities enhance their didactic experience. MoULe (Mobile and Ubiquitous Learning) system, a technological platform that we developed order support on-site experiences through handheld devices, allows read modify educational content available on e-learning platform, record new information during site activities, by using different multimedia formats, such textual...
Analysis of scientific and technological development in the field mobile learning, with particular reference to design issues evaluation experiences. Analyzes characteristics innovative teaching methods together proposals for concrete operational tools that allow educational interventions learning.
Marking everything with a name, attaching description to each node of an information space, is way classify resources by the use informally assigned tags. With advent Web 2.0, we need reconsider navigation strategies and how social software (e.g. wiki, blog, rss, bookmarking) can support users in spaces. In this paper investigate if bookmarking become "mobile" thus serve as tool that supports students on site learning experiences. We present preliminarily analysis some data gathered during...
