Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskans arbete innebär att dagligen möta patienter i olika situationer, ofta  komplicerade  vilket  innebär  många  tankar  och  känsloupplevelser.    För  att  fortsätta utvecklas  som  sjuksköterska  samt  bearbeta  upplevelser  behövs  tid  till  handledning  och reflektion.  Det  finns  flera  olika  handledningsmodeller.  Syfte:  Syftet  med  studien  är  att utifrån  tidigare  forskning  beskriva  sjuksköterskors  upplevelser  av  kollegial  handledning.  Metod:  Litteraturbaserad  studie  med  kvalitativ  inriktning.  Resultat:  Det  framkom  fyra viktiga     huvudkategorier     med     åtta     underkategorier.     Huvudkategorierna     var, handledningsgruppen,  stöd,  reflektion  och  profession.  De  följande  underkategorierna, trygghet  och  motivation,  välbefinnande  och  kollegialt  stöd,  bearbetning  av  känslor, tillfredställelse och bekräftelse, stärkt yrkesidentitet, personlig utveckling samt kvalitet och engagemang.    Diskussion:  Sjuksköterskor  anser  att  handledning  är  viktigt.  Ges  de  inte möjlighet   till   reflektion,   riskerar   känslor   och   upplevelser   att   bli   ett   hinder   i omvårdnadsarbetet.  Det  är  dock  viktigt  att  handledning  utförs  på  rätt  sätt,  för  att  ge sjuksköterskorna  rätt  motivation  att  medverka  i  handledning.  Sjuksköterskorna  når  både personlig   och   professionell   växt   genom   att   utbyta   erfarenheter   mellan   kollegor. Konklusion: Sjuksköterskor har behov av  handledning, både i form av reflektion för att undvika att känslor och tankar blir ett hinder samt i sin professionella växt. Detta leder till ökad omvårdnadskvalitet.

Abstract The newly emerging crime of fraud is classified as a new form of crime. The type of fraud is just like an amoeba with unpredictable forms. This type of crime is also rare overseas. Since 1997 as economy evolves, electronics communication prospers and internet becomes more common in Taiwan, several new crimes of fraud such as lottery, credit mortgage, purchasing, or cell phone text messaging have started to emerge. Some common characteristics of these newly emerging crimes are the use of large volumes of counterfeit documents, fraudulent accounts or deceptive phone calls to fake any forged but vivid and intense scenarios that induce or threaten victims to transfer money into fraudulent accounts appointed by the criminal group and seriously breach people's financial safety protected by law. Although a number of public order, electronic communication and financial authorities and businesses have already enforced internal policies to prevent the fraud. However a statistic collected by the criminal police department shows that the number of fraud cases has increased drastically by 42.6 times in the past 11 years. Due to large number of victims and the urgency pushed by the people and public opinion, The Executive Yuan of the Republic of China has established an ¡§Anti-Fraud Cross Functional Coordination Meeting¡¨ to coordinate the process from the perspective of public policies. However the progress is generally considered slow. The crimes has penetrated to the society and stretched into numerous forms. It has even lead to negative social external effect. This study focuses on the legal prevention system of newly emerging crime of fraud and references to other related administrative laws. The main theoretical framework is based on the basic theory of administrative laws which include theory, organization, right, relief and supervision. Finally the purpose of the theoretical framework is to evaluate the followings: effectiveness of anti-fraud actions in Taiwan, completeness of the current regulations, cooperation of various government authorities, and cooperation between the private financial organizations and communications businesses. This study will also find out whether it will be effective to establish a public order committee under the Executive Yuan of the Republic of China or a national crime research institute as in other developed countries to support the government in fighting against crime; whether a ¡§financial police department¡¨ is necessary; and how China and Taiwan can cooperate through multi-delegation to battle against the crimes conducted by criminals or fugitives from justice who hide at the other side of the shore.

Web-based education is an important method of instruction across multiple higher education contexts due to its convenience, accessibility, and flexibility. A local college faces demand for online teaching that exceeds the availability of willing faculty. This study investigated instructors' perceptions of online teaching versus traditional classroom instruction to ascertain whether there were systematic differences between online teaching and face-to-face classroom instruction. Transformational learning theory was the conceptual foundation of this study. The study's guiding questions were designed to determine how faculty regarded their experiences teaching online classes and the reasons for their opinions, as well as what limitations faculty thought online education possessed. The qualitative, descriptive study investigated faculty attitudes and beliefs about distance education. The program director sent out 10 emails recruiting voluntary participants; six responded, met criteria, and participated. Criteria included at least 3 years of online teaching experience, where at least 1 class took place using an online format, over the course of 2 semesters. Data collected were coded and analyzed for emerging themes. Findings indicated that participants think distance education is beneficial; however, classroom instruction has strengths online teaching does not. To address the findings, a workshop series aimed at educating stakeholders about distance education was designed and developed. The implementation of the workshop series has the potential to change educators' attitudes and teaching practices at the local college to the benefit of all stakeholders. Further, this study has the potential to inform change at other colleges facing similar challenges. In addition, future studies should explore differences in student satisfaction levels between online education and traditional courses, if any.

Exploring school advisors' practices: Dwelling in/between the tectonic spaces is a story about three teachers assisting their student teachers in becoming teachers, and my safari through their landscapes; what i describe as dwelling in/between the tectonic spaces. Those spaces between school advising and student teaching, desire and fear, comfortable and uncomfortable, predictable and unpredictable, all speak to the fact that school advising is a complex phenomena. The exploration began with two research questions that guided the study: what is the school advisor's understanding of her practice? What is the school advisor's understanding of how one becomes a teacher? i worked with three school advisors from two large urban secondary schools during the 13 week secondary student teaching practicum in the 1994/95 school year. Diane and Jill came from Maskini Secondary School. They worked with one student teacher, Betty. Jessica came from Lord Cook Secondary School, and worked with two student teachers, Chety and Tiany. Several data generating procedures were integrated and a co-researching relationship fostered between the school advisors and me. The data generating procedures were conversations, participant observations, video and audio-taping. Student teacher assessment forms written by the school advisors were part of the data; and i kept a journal throughout the study. As i became immersed in the study, listened to several conferences between school advisors and student teachers, and held various conversations-on-actions with the school advisors, i realized i was dealing with a very complex phenomenon. Interpreting the data from the point of view of the two research questions that i began with, and trying to understand the school advisors' practices and their understanding of how one becomes a teacher from that view, would have meant camouflaging the dynamics and conflictual nature of such practices. Asking a what is question demanded that i objectify the school advisors. That would have meant sealing myself off from the atmosphere that i inhabited in those classrooms, the sounds of pedagogy that i heard, and the smiles that radiated the rooms. That would have meant not acknowledging what it was like for me inhabiting places full of love and hope. It would have also meant blocking off the painful moments that were evident at times. The moments and situations speak of what and how school advising was like and could be like. The data transformed the research questions. The complexity of school advising needed to be spoken of according to what it was like and could be like. Thus, what school advising was like and can be like or what the 1994/95 practicum was like for the school advisors is told in narratives and metaphors generated from the various conversations. The narratives, the situations, and the metaphors speak about what we have to grasp as a whole. They help us understand each advising of a student teacher by a school advisor on a certain day, in the tone of a previous incident, reminder, and suggestion. The narrative fragments and the synopsis make sense in the whole. Like parables they constitute what Paul Ricouer calls "networks of intersignifications." i have used geographical terms such as safari, tectonic, landscape, terrain, and paths, to communicate what the practicum was like for us as co-researchers. This study assists us in understanding what school advising could be like by offering accounts of what it was like for the co-researchers, Jill, Jessica, Diane, and myself. These accounts describe school advising and student teaching as processes of reorientation by disorientation which can be tectonic. For student teachers, the practicum is a reorientation to what was familiar when they were secondary students. For school advisors, the practicum is familiar because it is a yearly occurrence. However, this study found that student teaching and school advising can be very disorienting processes to the parties involved. The tectonicness highlight the need to nurture relationships in teacher education programs which include pedagogical relationships in the classrooms, triadic relationships during the practicum, student teacher-student teacher relationships, and, school advisor-student teacher relationships.

A critical review of the literature shows little evidence of the benefits of counselling for people infected with the HTV virus and rigorous follow-up studies are generally lacking. Authors reviewed in the literature urge the need for training in counselling. However, whether counseling training is a necessity in the context of HFV/AIDS is debatable as no evidence has yet suggested that trained counsellors are more effective than untrained ones. Therefore, it is necessary to know-how counsellors perceive their role in relation to people with HTV/AIDS. It is also essential to know what skills and training they regard as necessary for working with this group of clients. This thesis reports the results of two separate studies. Twelve questionnaires were returned and 3 interviews were conducted in the preliminary study among a small sample of people responsible for counselling women with HTV/AIDS. The results demonstrated that most counselling for this group of clients was not carried out by trained counsellors. It was concluded that counselling was not a central response to those clients. Acknowledgement of the limitations of this preliminary’ study led to the main study which was conducted among experienced and student counsellors on the perceptions of their role in working with people with HTV/AIDS.A number of significant differences were found between the perceptions of 30 experienced counsellors and 46 students in the questionnaire survey of the main study. However, experienced counsellors did not appear to feel better prepared than students in working with people with HIV/AIDS. Inconsistent results were found which suggested no agreement about whether counselling for people with HIV/AIDS required different skills and training to counselling other groups of clients. Furthermore, inconsistency between responses to different questions suggested that although respondents acknowledged a role in reducing the spread of HIV infection, they had not adequately thought through the implications of this for their counselling practice. The implications for counsellor training and supervision were discussed.
