Effectiveness of pedagogical tools for teaching medical gross anatomy during the COVID-19 pandemicLin, Dustin 22 November 2021 (has links)
INTRODUCTION: Medical institutions have been forced to modify gross anatomy pedagogy in order to comply with the health restrictions imposed by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) is one such institution that temporarily restructured its course. We replaced cadaveric dissection activities with prosections and a greater emphasis on a flipped classroom model. This study investigates the effectiveness of new course materials developed to aid these curriculum changes.
RESOURCES: Course materials were developed for three purposes: (1) preparation before laboratory sessions (orientation videos and Complete Anatomy screens); (2) guidance during lab (laboratory guides); and (3) review after laboratory sessions (Zoom recitation sessions). We asked students questions regarding the most helpful and least helpful aspects of the course materials. We performed a grounded theory thematic analysis of students’ responses (80/160, 50% response) to qualitative survey questions and to focus group questions (16 students who self-selected between 4 different sessions).
DESCRIPTION: Data from both the survey and focus groups demonstrated that the vast majority of students strongly agreed or agreed that the materials helped them navigate through learning gross anatomy. However, students expressed that laboratory guides were used mostly for post-lab review as opposed to the intended direction during laboratory sessions. Students within all focus groups overwhelmingly touted the value of, and advocated for, Zoom recitation sessions, with many stating that they were imperative to course success and comprehension of material.
SIGNIFICANCE: We propose that the utilization of course materials that students perceive as time saving, useful integration of information, pertinent to their exam performance, and combined with cadaveric prosection emphasizes the benefits of flipped-classroom learning to help students learn gross anatomy effectively and efficiently during the pandemic.

Vypuknutí autoritarianismu: polská a maďarská odpověď na pandemii Covid-19 a jejich dopady na demokracii v porovnání s Itálií / Autocratization outbreaks: the Polish and Hungarian responses to the Covid-19 pandemic and their early effects on democracy in comparison to ItalyNunes Vidal, Igor January 2021 (has links)
The unexpected COVID-19 pandemic demanded a strong and firm state response in order to curb the unprecedented, multilevel crisis caused by the spread of SARS-CoV-2. The arrival of the virus in the EU in early 2020, including the terrible Italian first-wave outbreak, incited the primacy of health and life over any other right or freedom. Although understandable, this scenario raised concerns over the possibility of instrumentalization of the pandemic by the populist governments, given the affinity between the rise of populism discourse and practices in the event, or narrative, of crisis. With consideration of the conditions of the rule of law in the European Union, the quasi-autocracies of Poland and Hungary become interesting research objects. The present work describes these countries' measures and analyses their legality and compliance to the rule of law, together with considerations to the impact of said measures upon these countries' democratic institutions. Furthermore, the same operation will be performed for the Italian scenario, which leads to a comparison to be made between the three countries' pandemic managements, and, ultimately, a comparison between the Central-Eastern European populism and Western European populism. Due to the novelty of the subject, there is a lack of work on the...

COVID-19-pandemic: the crisis was not only a challenge for the forms of preaching but also its content. What could and should be said? How can people be comforted and strengthened without preaching weak and banal ‘good news’? And again and again the question: How can we speak of God amid a worldwide crisis? For Societas Homiletica it became clear quite soon that the Budapest Conference would have to be postponed (and – God willing – we will meet in Budapest from August 12 to 17, 2022!). But our International Secretary, Prof. Dr. Theo Pleizier, came up with the idea of organizing an Online Conference on “Preaching in Time of Crisis.” The International Board of Societas Homiletica supported this idea, and on August 10–12, 2020, the first Online Conference in the history of Societas Homiletica ‘took place.’ We are glad and honored to present five outstanding papers delivered at the Online Conference in this Special Volume of our International Journal of Homiletics, two from Europe and three from North America (Canada and the USA). Clara Nystrand from Lund (Sweden) compares sermons delivered in Sweden in the time of the Spanish flu 1918 with sermons delivered in the first phase of the Corona pandemic. André Verweij, pastor and researcher in the Netherlands, analyzes five Easter sermons delivered in the Netherlands during the first wave of the Covid-19-pandemic and discovers a lamenting mode in preaching, which steers away from interpreting the pandemic’s possible ‘meaning’ or ‘message.’ Joseph H. Clarke and David Csinos from the Atlantic School of Theology in Halifax, Canada, show how fruitful dialogue between psychotherapy and homiletics can be. David M. Stark, teaching and doing homiletical research at the University of the South in Sewanee (USA), speaks about a dual pandemic of COVID-19 and systemic racism. In the final article, Edgar “Trey” Clark III from Fuller Theology Seminary in Pasadena (USA), examines protests in support of “Black Lives Matter” and sees these protests as a form of Spirit-inspired proclamation – connecting lament and celebration, particularity and universality, word and deed. Obviously, the COVID-19-pandemic changed not only the forms and media of preaching, but also its contents – and will have an impact also in the time ‘after’ the pandemic.

Preaching in Times of Pestilence – 1918 and 2020Nystrand, Clara 31 August 2021 (has links)
With the help of sermon manuscripts from the time of the Spanish flu, held within the Church of Sweden, new light is shed on sermons held in the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. The comparison shows, among other things, that a shift has been made in how God is portrayed. It also points to some challenging questions about suffering, hope and the role of eternity in preaching today.

Preaching in a Lamenting Mode Easter Lockdown Sermons in the NetherlandsVerweij, André 31 August 2021 (has links)
As the COVID-19 pandemic brought fear and anxiety to people around the world, the Christian community is called to give witness to her hope in the risen Lord. Preaching is a major channel of this witness. The analysis of five Easter sermons, preached in April 2020 by pastors of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands, brings to the fore how an alarming contextual situation weighs in on the tone and content of Easter preaching in local churches. A lamenting mode of preaching was found, that voices local communities’ distress and strengthens hope, repeating the salvific message of Easter in the face of bewilderment and suffering. The analysis underscores and adds to homiletical theory on lament in preaching.

Eucharistic Preaching as Early Response to a Dual PandemicStark, David M. 31 August 2021 (has links)
This paper examines the preaching at Washington National Cathedral as a response to the dual pandemic of COVID-19 and systemic racism in the United States. Drawing on research from over forty sermons from high church traditions and comparing it with analysis of sermons on Palm Sunday and Easter this paper will show how preachers in high church traditions, accustomed to preaching in the presence of eucharist, adapted their proclamation to respond to a virtual congregation and the absence of in-person communion. Then, the paper examines how Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde and Presiding Bishop Michael Curry further develop elements of eucharistic preaching in Pentecost and Trinity Sunday sermons to respond to the murder of George Floyd. Among other things, Budde and Curry’s sermons call for confession, evoke anamnesis, employ liturgical music, invite embodiment, and offer Christ as broken body and resurrected hope to target systemic racism. These sermonic examples show how the theology and rhetoric of the eucharistic liturgy can be a resource for preaching that more effectively confronts the challenges of a dual pandemic.

När tillvaron begränsas av ett virus : Berättelser om livskvalitet under en pandemiPuurtinen, Lotta, Rehnholm, Elin January 2021 (has links)
Coronapandemin har skapat stora konsekvenser för världens befolkning och i Sverige har restriktioner och rekommendationer införts som begränsat människors liv. Tidigare forskning gällande livskvalitet under pandemin har bedrivits utanför Sverige med kvantitativa mätinstrument. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka upplevd livskvalitet i Sverige under pendemin. Tolv individer, varav sex män och sex kvinnor, mellan 20-52 år med olika sysselsättningar medverkade. Semistrukturerade intervjuer användes vid insamlingen av data och tematisk analys användes vid databearbetningen. Resultatet visade att det sociala livet förändrats, mer tid spenderats i hemmet och att livsstilen blivit mer stillasittande. Det fanns även en större förväntan att kunna leda sig själv i form av att skapa rutiner. Nära relationer och betydelsefulla fritidsaktiviteter ökade livskvaliteten under pandemin medan den begränsade rörligheten i samhället minskade livskvaliteten. Studiens slutsats var att individens förmåga till anpassning avgjorde hur livskvaliteten upplevdes under pandemin. Vidare forskning föreslogs studera livskvaliteten över tid under pandemin.

Distansarbetares upplevelse av den digitala kommunikationens påverkan på känsla av sammanhangEkman, Kirsti, Ribbing, Lia January 2021 (has links)
Omställningen till ett digitalt arbetsliv, till följd av Covid-19-pandemin, på distans har förändrat många människors sätt att arbeta de senaste två åren. Forskning visar på motstridiga resultat hur distansarbetare upplever detta sätt att arbeta och det finns en bristande kunskap om hur kommunikationen inom de digitala plattformarna påverkar distansarbetarnas upplevelse av KASAM. Syftet var att undersöka om distansarbetare, som innan pandemin inte tidigare arbetat på distans, upplever att kommunikation via digitala plattformar påverkar deras upplevelse av KASAM. I studien deltog 12 respondenter från både offentlig och privat sektor. Genom kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer, som analyserades tematiskt, visade resultatet att respondenterna upplevde både faktorer som hindrade KASAM, som bland annat försämrad teamkänsla, och faktorer som främjade KASAM, som bland annat ökad effektivitet. Studiens resultat visade i linje med vad tidigare forskning sagt att det finns både positiv och negativ påverkan på respondenternas KASAM när de kommunicerar via digitala plattformar under distansarbete.
