A collaborative science curriculum created by a first and third grade class. The students were provided with the global theme of change and were invited to brainstorm topics of interests that were utilized to create a science theme cycle.

This guide was developed to provide a hands-on, interdisciplinary curriculum, based on children's literature for grades four through six. It is a resource for teachers incorporating environmental education into their regular curriculum, revolving around a common theme, trees.

This project will provide classroom teachers with examples of how music can be taught on a daily basis through the integration of disciplines. After completing an extensive review of literature, the writer evaluated teaching standards of both music and curriculum subject areas found similar learning goals and designed a series of twelve lesson plans that integrated these standards.

This project promotes an interdisciplinary approach to classroom instruction as an alternative to sequential instruction typically practiced in public schools. Specifically targeted are thematic, interdisciplinary teaching strategies.

This study included an environmental ethics syllabi research project, an environmental ethics curriculum development survey of all colleges in California, and the subsequent development of tables to compare the results. The curriculum development survey of California colleges includes a listing of all course descriptions of environmental ethics and related courses.

<p style="text-align: justify;">Izrada osnovnih principa za rodno osetljiv pristup u enciklopedijskom tekstu važan je korak ka sveobuhvatnijoj slici na&scaron;e stvarnosti u procesima demokratizacije dru&scaron;tva danas.<br />Važno je i iz istorijske perspektive obratiti posebnu pažnju na sve one žene iz prethodnih vekova koje su značajne u različitim domenima na&scaron;e istorijske prakse, a nisu do sada o njima izno&scaron;eni valjani podaci (Tomin, 2011). Cilj istraživanja je provera postojanja implicitne diskriminacije prema ženama iz različitih grupa u postojećim enciklopedijskim projektima i predlog za prezentaciju žena u enciklopedijskom tekstu kojim se uvažavaju rodne i druge razlike i specifičnosti kako iz istorijske tako i iz savremene perspektive. Pretpostavka je da je u postojećim enciklopedijama nedovoljno odrednica o zaslužnim ženama, &scaron;to je rezultat implicitne rodne diskriminacije onih koji uređuju enciklopedijski tekst, ali i spor proces sazrevanja enciklopedijskog teksta kao posebnog žanra. Odabrana je teorija drugosti za osnovu analize enciklopedijskih odrednica o ličnostima; metod kritičke analize teksta za formiranje institucionalnog žanra.<br />Korpus čini ukupno 106 enciklopedijskih jedinica, sačinjen na osnovu literature dostupne u poslednjih petnaest godina, iz različitih disciplina, pre svega interdisciplinarnih i onih koje su nove, a karakteristične su za oblasti delovanja žena danas.<br />Korpus od 106 enciklopedijskih odrednica prati Uputstvo za pisanje enciklopedijske odrednice, spisak literature koji sadrži sve bibliografske jedinice koje su kori&scaron;ćene u formiranju korpusa i spisak skraćenica.<br />Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da je u postojećim enciklopedijama nedovoljan broj žena; u odrednicama odsustvuje rodno osetljiv pristup koji je (delimično) posledica uređivačke koncepcije. Osnovni rezultat je autorov predlog 106 enciklopedijskih odrednica o zaslužnim ženama iz svih oblasti života i rada (sa 95 fotografija), odabran u skladu sa uspostavljenim kriterijumima za izbor odrednica i napisane prema uputstvu za pisanje rodno osetljivim jezikom. U zaključku se konstatuje da je žanr enciklopedijskog teksta sazrevao u srpskom jeziku tokom gotovo jednog veka i da danas u njemu odsustvuje rodno osetljiva dimenzija. Zato rezultati u ovom radu mogu biti od koristi u neposrednom radu timova okupljenih oko enciklopedijskih i leksikonskih projekata u zemlji u daljem radu za pokolenja koja dolaze.</p>

The topic of this thesis concerns the interdisciplinary approach in teaching chemistry and biology at Czech grammar schools. Especially with two main questions: the determination of the level of integration that secondary school teachers prefer and how to promote an interdisciplinary approach at grammar schools. The following main objectives were established: find out which level of integration of science subjects is preferred by Czech teachers for secondary schools level, identify the main obstacles of implementation of integration, find out the factors which can help with the integration of knowledge, create support for interdisciplinary approach at Czech grammar schools. In order to achieve these objectives, a questionnaire survey among secondary school teachers and interviews with the academic staff of the Faculty of Science of Charles University were carried out. The results of the questionnaire survey showed that respondents prefer to preserve separate subjects with an emphasis on interdisciplinary relationships. The main restriction of integration is that similar topics in chemistry and biology are not taught in the same period, insufficient knowledge of the second subject or lack of learning materials. The main factor which can help with more frequent integration is learning materials. As...

Background: Incidental findings (IFs) are reported in 20% or more of trauma CT scans. In addition to the importance of patient disclosure, there is considerable legal pressure to avoid missed diagnoses. We reported previously that 63.5% of IFs were disclosed before discharge and with 20% were nondisclosed. We initiated a multidisciplinary systemic plan to effect predischarge disclosure by synoptic CT reports with American College of Radiology recommended follow-up, electronic medical records discharge prompts, and provider education. Study Design: Prospective observational series patients from November 2019 to February 2020 were included. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS, version 21 (IBM Corp). Results: Eight hundred and seventy-seven patients underwent 1 or more CT scans for the evaluation of trauma (507 were male and 370 were female). Mean age of the patients was 57 years (range 14 to 99 years) and 96% had blunt injury. In 315 patients, there were 523 IFs (1.7 per patient); the most common were lung (17.5%), kidney (13%), and liver (11%). Radiology report compliance rate was 84% (210 of 249 patients). There were 66 studies from outside facilities. Sixteen IFs were suspicious for malignancy. A total of 151 patients needed no follow-up and 148 patients needed future follow-up evaluation. Predischarge IF disclosure compliance rate was 90.1% (286 patients); 25 were post discharge. Four patients remained undisclosed. Compared with our previous report, clearer reporting and electronic medical records prompts increased predischarge disclosure from 63.5% to 90.1% (p < 0.01, chi-square test) and decreased days to notification from 29.5 (range 0 to 277) to 5.2 (range 0 to 59) (p < 0.01, Mann-Whitney U test). Conclusions: Timely, complete disclosure of IFs improves patient outcomes and reduces medicolegal risk. Collaboration among trauma, radiology, and information technology promotes improved disclosure in trauma populations.
