Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with the factors that affect sustainable change for teaching and learning practices in higher education. It does so by investigating the extent to which a curriculum reform strategy was successfully implemented at the Faculty of Health Sciences at La Trobe University. As the Executive Dean of the Faculty, I was responsible for the development and implementation of a Faculty wide curriculum reform programme over the three and half years which is the focus of this thesis. I was interested in whether the reforms were implemented as planned, the extent to which they led to

Abstract:

<p>In recent years, online learning has become a recognized method for delivering educational content in numerous institutions of higher education. Despite the prevalence of this new method of education and training, few studies have been performed regarding online learning in the field of dental education. This research describes and analyzes faculty perceptions in the Kuwait University-Faculty of Dentistry regarding online dental education.

Abstract:

Introduction: Persons with disabilities are vulnerable to rights violations when accessing healthcare. As allied health professionals play a significant role in the care of persons with disabilities, it is important that allied health professional competencies and education recognise the rights of persons with disabilities. However, a preliminary literature review indicated that the incorporation of disability rights within allied health professional competencies and education has not been researched.

Background - Registrars play a significant role as teachers for undergraduate medical students and junior doctors in the clinical setting. (Jack et al. 2010; Busari & Scherpbier 2004). Many however teach ineffectively as registrars are rarely taught how to teach (Morrison et al. 2002, Busari et al. 2002; Thomas et al. 2002). This has prompted a number of universities to implement “Registrar-as-Teacher” training programs as part of faculty development (FD) initiatives (Leslie et al. 2014; Post et al. 2009, Hill et al. 2009)

Abstract:

The years spent studying towards a degree represent many challenges to the learner1. These pressures increase once that learner moves into the post-graduate level of professional study. Faced with the pressure of having to perform suitably in order to remain on the programme, the learner finds himself or herself under conditions which may present as stress or illness, depending upon the availability of coping resources and strategies. This study adopted a psychofortigenic2 approach and explored and described the coping (i.e., coping resources and sense of coherence) and subjective well-being (
