The baseline survey on multilingual and transdisciplinary urban arts education is the result of the first part of the UrbArt project, which supports low-skilled adults in marginalized communities ...with urban arts activities and educational approaches. The aim of the baseline survey was to identify national and transnational needs and challenges related to marginalization in culture and education, as well as performance indicators for urban arts education, taking into account the concepts of transdisciplinarity and multilingualism. Five partner countries from Austria, Iceland, Portugal, Slovenia and the United Kingdom participated in the study. The survey involved people working as education providers or arts workshops in the areas covered by the project and asked them to share their experiences, describe their needs and challenges, and identify problems they face in their work with deprivileged or marginalized people or communities. Questionnaires, interviews and focus groups based on the same starting points formed the methodological basis. The publication presents the processes and outcomes of the work, concludes with key findings at European level and makes recommendations for the potential of social access and empowerment of deprivileged and marginalized adult individuals and communities through urban arts education.
V članku predstavljamo metodo e-izobraževanja odraslih v ožjem smislu, oblikovano posebej za odprto izobraževanje v zdravstvu, ter empirične rezultate pri uporabi v pilotnem projektu v Bolnišnici ...Topolšica. Metoda vključuje kombinacijo kombiniranega in obrnjenega učenja z uporabo prosto dostopnih izobraževalnih virov, ki so eden od ključnih rezultatov projekta. Tehnološka podlaga je spletni izobraževalni portal Videolectures.NET. Rezultati so potrdili ustreznost pristopa in zadovoljstvo udeležencev izobraževalnega procesa pri usposabljanju novozaposlenih v bolnišnici. Opisana raziskava je potekala kot del aktivnosti iniciative Odpiramo Slovenijo (Opening up Slovenia – OuS) in se nadaljuje s širjenjem pilotnega projekta na druge slovenske bolnišnice. Prikazan je tudi primer dobre prakse prenosa izobraževalnih vsebin med zdravstvenim in izobraževalnim sektorjem z uporabo zdravstvenih vsebin v spletnem tečaju za osnovne šole.
Predstavljamo raziskavo o mnenju stanovalcev domov za starejše o izobraževanju na kulturno-umetniškem področju. V raziskavi nas je uvodoma zanimalo, kakšno je mnenje o pomenu izobraževanja na ...kulturno-umetniškem področju, v nadaljevanju pa smo posebno pozornost namenili ugotavljanju obstoja razlik v mnenju o pomembnosti izobraževanja na kulturno-umetniškem področju glede na spol, najvišjo stopnjo pridobljene izobrazbe, izvorno okolje in starost. Raziskovalni vzorec je vključeval 77 udeležencev, ki bivajo v domovih za starejše v Mariboru. Izsledki raziskave kažejo, da se velika večina starejših oseb zaveda pomena izobraževanja na kulturno-umetniškem področju. Ob tem se je izkazalo, da moški in osebe z višjo stopnjo izobrazbe izobraževanju na kulturno-umetniškem področju pripisujejo večji pomen kot ženske in tisti z nižjo stopnjo izobrazbe, medtem ko pri kategorijah izvorno okolje in starost ni bilo zaznati večjih razlik. Pridobljene ugotovitve lahko služijo kot smernice za nadaljnje načrtovanje in raziskovanje izobraževanja na kulturno-umetniškem področju pri starejših osebah, ki bivajo v domovih.
The introduction of interprofessional primary care (IPC) as a model of collaborative patient care is increasingly vital in the context of complex healthcare systems and the growing needs of patients. ...Its benefits include improved patient outcomes, enhanced efficiency, and reduced costs. However, the successful implementation of IPC faces challenges due to the differences in training and backgrounds among healthcare professionals, emphasising the importance of effective teamwork and collaborative education.
Educational approaches utilising simulations have gained prominence, particularly in addressing the challenges of interprofessional primary care. Notably, simulations facilitate team learning, enhancing team management and confidence, which ultimately leads to improved performance in real-life scenarios. They also contribute to patient safety by providing comprehensive training and creating a safe environment for professionals to practice and refine their skills without risking real patient harm.
Moreover, simulations promote psychological safety, allowing healthcare workers to manage stress effectively and prepare for critical situations. Ethical considerations are met through simulation-based education, ensuring patient confidentiality, and creating a standardised and just learning environment for all students. Simulations contribute to promoting equity in medical education by providing equal access to high-quality training opportunities for all healthcare professionals.
In conclusion, successful IPC implementation requires a comprehensive approach that includes interprofessional education and the integration of simulations as an essential component of the curriculum at all levels of healthcare education. This approach fosters effective communication, teamwork, and confidence among primary care teams, ultimately leading to improved patient care and outcomes.
V članku razpravljamo o učinkih globalizacije na spremembo življenjskih potekov. Izhajamo iz teze, da individualizacija in destandardizacija življenjskega poteka terja od ljudi večjo pripravljenost ...za odgovorno načrtovanje življenja. Predvsem prehodi iz mladosti v odraslost postajajo nejasni in fleksibilni, kar spreminja tudi obdobje odraslosti. Posledično je odraslost izgubila mnogo svojih stabilnih struktur vlog in tradicionalnih pomenov ter postaja vse bolj psihološki pojav. Vse to pa seveda pomeni, da imajo zdaj odrasli opravka s ključnim identitetnim delom, prej rezerviranim za obdobje mladosti. Tu ima pomembno vlogo izobraževanje odraslih, ki je postavljeno pred nove izzive in naloge. Poleg izobraževanja za delo (dokvalifikacije, prekvalifikacije) ima izobraževanje odraslih vedno bolj pomembno socialno funkcijo (socialno in tehnološko vključevanje, pridobivanje novih socialnih kompetenc za razumevanje družbenih dogajanj) in posebej psihološko funkcijo (razvoj »identitetnih kapitalov«, potrebnih za suvereno odraslo življenje v sodobnih življenjskih razmerah).
Curricula are reviewed and adapted in response to a perceived need to improve interprofessional collaboration for the benefit of patient care. In 2005, the module Interprofessional Collaboration in ...Healthcare (IPCIHC) was developed by the Antwerp University Association (AUHA). The program was based upon a concept of five steps to IPCIHC. This educational module aims to help graduates obtain the competence of interprofessional collaborators in health care.
Over a span of 15 years, the IPCIHC module is evaluated annually by students and provided with feedback by the tutors and steering committee. Data up to 2014 were supplemented with data up to 2019. For the students the same evaluative one-group, post-test design was used to gather data using a structured questionnaire. The tutors' and students' feedback was thematically analyzed.
Based upon the results and the contextual changing needs, the program was adjusted. Between 2005 and 2019, a total of 8616 evaluations were received (response rate: 78%). Eighty percent of the respondents indicated through the evaluations that they were convinced of the positive effect of the IPCIHC module on their interprofessional development. Over the years, two more disciplines enrolled into this program and also education programs form the Netherlands.
After 15 years, positive outcomes are showed, and future health professionals have a better understanding of interprofessional learning. Gathering feedback and annually evaluation helped to provide a targeted interprofessional program addressing contextual changes. The challenge remains to keep on educating future healthcare providers in interprofessional collaboration in order to achieve an increase in observable interprofessional behaviour towards other professional groups.
The article presents the situation of members of the Slovene community in Croatia, focusing on selected aspects of their socioeconomic participation (inclusion) in Croatian society. This topic has ...not been thoroughly studied yet, firstly due to the low interest of researchers in the position and activities of members of the Slovene community in Croatia, and secondly due to a continuous lack of data on the socioeconomic participation of members of not only the Slovene community but of all minorities in Croatia in general. Based on the analysis of data mainly collected from Croatian official reports, the situation of members of the Slovene minority in Croatia is presented mainly in relation to the exercise of their rights to education and employment.
The article deals with increasing cross-border education, namely students from Slovenia attending upper-secondary level minority schools in Austrian Carinthia. We conducted interviews with school ...management and focus groups with students, who also completed a short questionnaire. Based on qualitative and quantitative data, we drew conclusions about the motives of students from Slovenia for enrolment in Slovene minority schools in Austria and about the consequences of their decision – their well-being, their knowledge and use of languages, their plans for the future – as well as in relation to their sense of Europeanness and their varying identities. Cross-border schooling turns out to be a success story. The outcome seems to be particularly favourable for the Slovene minority in Austrian Carinthia as it maintains the scope and quality of minority education, while also having the positive consequence of giving the members of the Slovene minority much greater exposure to the Slovene language, especially spoken language, with which they otherwise have less direct contact.
