Full textAbstract:
The monograph presents the psychological theory and organization of personalized learning in general education schools. The concept of integrative subjectivity of a person as a form of reflexive and areflexive self-existence is considered as the psychological basis of personalized learning. The author characterizes the personality and the social individual in the light of the humanitarian Christian paradigm: reveals the phenomenology of integrative subjectivity, its structural organization, levels and forms of development of the individual and the social individual. From the standpoint of the Christian psychology of education, the general psychological and socio-psychological aspects of personalized learning are revealed, the psychological typification of students and teachers is justified, the extraordinary pedagogical interaction as a psychological mechanism of personalized learning is presented, the experimental construction of psychological types of primary school students based on the perception of educational material, as well as the typological features of teachers. Technologies of personalized learning are presented. The monograph reflects the results of many years of theoretical and experimental research of the author. It is of interest to seminarians, students, postgraduates of Orthodox educational institutions, students of Higher theological courses, faculties of advanced training and retraining, as well as philosophers, psychologists, teachers, social workers, and specialists in the field of education.

Full textAbstract:
Medical ethics is both a pedagogical tool and an educational component of postgraduate medical education. Residency ethics is not about ensuring trainees have the right answers. It is about encouraging self-reflection and an awareness of alternatives. This is the best preparation for independent professional practice. We examine four areas of specialization—Family Medicine, Psychiatry, Surgery, and Pediatrics—to illustrate how current standards and future directions in postgraduate training reflect this understanding of ethics. While we believe that the most appropriate preparation of residents for medical professionalism is the development of residency specific graduate ethics teaching, there is little reliable empirical evidence for the best approach to designing an ideal ethics curriculum. There is no one right way to do so. We provide an ethics decision-making tool and suggest steps that programmers might wish to take planning their postgraduate ethics teaching.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter looks at collaborative work between composers and performers in an educational setting, and using the case study of a postgraduate programme at the Royal College of Music in London, it explores the values and meanings attached to creative collaboration for students preparing to enter the world of work. The study showed how students found this sort of collaborative work to be potentially career-enhancing and creatively fulfilling. The study also found however that composer–performer roles were demarcated strongly enough to constrain the degree of collaboration and learning to satisfy all the participants. The chapter concludes with questions about the degree to which such programmes challenge the assumptions and roles of performers and composers. How do conservatoires both prepare students for the world of work and provide models that might challenge that world?

Full textAbstract:
The clinical examination of children and adolescents is an essential component of assessment, facilitates appropriate interpretation of investigations and is integral to the process of making a diagnosis. The clinical assessment of children and young people differs from that of adults, requiring greater reliance on physical examination as the history may be vague and illocalized and requires knowledge of normal musculoskeletal development, normal motor milestones and different patterns of clinical presentations across the ages. The interpretation of clinical findings needs to be in the context of the whole child and the clinical presentation. The degree of expertise required in clinical skills varies with the clinical practice of the examiner and ranges from the basic screening assessment to a more detailed examination of joints, muscles and anatomical regions. The evidence base for clinical assessment in children and young people is accruing and undoubtedly, competent clinical skills requires learning to be embedded in core child health teaching and assessment starting at medical school and reinforced in postgraduate training.

Bhopal, Raj S. Concepts of Epidemiology. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/med/9780198739685.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Epidemiology is a population science that underpins health improvement and health care, and is concerned with the pattern, frequency, trends, and causes of disease. This book teaches its applications to population health research, policy-making, health service planning, health promotion, and clinical care. The book emphasizes concepts and principles. In 10 chapters, the book explains what epidemiology is; illustrates the basis of epidemiology in populations; provides a framework for analysing diseases by time, place, and person; introduces error, bias, and confounding; explains how we move from association to causation; considers the natural history, spectrum, and iceberg of disease in relation to medical screening; discusses the acquisition and analysis of data on incidence and prevalence of risk factors and diseases; shows the ways in which epidemiological data are presented, including relative and absolute risks; provides an integrated overview of study designs and the principles of data analysis; and considers the theoretical and ethical basis of epidemiology both in the past and the future. The emphasis is on interactive learning, with each chapter including learning objectives, theoretical and numerical exercises, questions and answers, and a summary. The text is illustrated, with detailed material in tables. The book is written in plain English, and the necessary technical and specialized terminology is explained and defined in a glossary. The book is for postgraduate courses in epidemiology, public health, and health policy. It is also suitable for clinicians, undergraduate students in medicine, nursing and other health disciplines, and researchers.

Full textAbstract:
A Primer of Population Genetics and Genomics, 4th edition, has been completely revised and updated to provide a concise but comprehensive introduction to the basic concepts of population genetics and genomics. Recent textbooks have tended to focus on such specialized topics as the coalescent, molecular evolution, human population genetics, or genomics. This primer bucks that trend by encouraging a broader familiarity with, and understanding of, population genetics and genomics as a whole. The overview ranges from mating systems through the causes of evolution, molecular population genetics, and the genomics of complex traits. Interwoven are discussions of ancient DNA, gene drive, landscape genetics, identifying risk factors for complex diseases, the genomics of adaptation and speciation, and other active areas of research. The principles are illuminated by numerous examples from a wide variety of animals, plants, microbes, and human populations. The approach also emphasizes learning by doing, which in this case means solving numerical or conceptual problems. The rationale behind this is that the use of concepts in problem-solving lead to deeper understanding and longer knowledge retention. This accessible, introductory textbook is aimed principally at students of various levels and abilities (from senior undergraduate to postgraduate) as well as practising scientists in the fields of population genetics, ecology, evolutionary biology, computational biology, bioinformatics, biostatistics, physics, and mathematics.

Full textAbstract:
In the United Kingdom, and several other European countries, Canada, Australia, and the United States, art therapy is a state-registered health-care profession and its practitioners complete a postgraduate training for 2 years full-time or equivalent. The training encompasses models of psychotherapy, psychiatry, psychology, and the role and function of aesthetics and creativity in health care. Art therapy training consists of three core elements: the theoretical underpinnings of the practice, experiential engagement in artistic and interpersonal activities (so that trainees develop their capacity for self-reflection and insight and continue to engage in their own art-making) and clinical placements. Clinical placements are central to the training of art therapists, and in this way practitioners also learn about the roles of other health professionals, the function of interdisciplinary teamwork, and art therapy’s contribution to this. Professional registration of art therapists ensures that practitioners continue to maintain the standards of proficiency and professional practice established on qualification. In the United Kingdom, art therapy had its beginnings in the tuberculosis sanatoria of the 1940s but quickly developed within psychiatric and educational settings. Integrated with other care, it has since been widely incorporated into the fields of mental health and learning disabilities. However, there is a growing interest in art therapy with the medically and terminally ill. One recent survey in the UK found over 50% of art therapists in adult cancer care working with people in the palliative phase.

However the field is still in the field of management in general.The target audience is an academician and management students.In general, this book meets the scope of management.It is also suitable for an academician and students, but may not be appropriate in using for certain course, because of its scope is geared to specific disciplines. This book has the potential, especially if the university lecturers took it to be discussed in their classes.There is least amount of case use Malaysia environment in the market.The cases highlighted also are unique and not similar to the other cases.Furthermore, this book is using a real case in the beginning, especially in our country.In addition, this book is accompanied by teaching notes for each case.These teaching notes are available to instructors only.First to fifth case is ongoing for all cases involving the issue of whether the marketing or the service industry. The second and third cases involving issues on marketing in the nutritional industry. Consequently the third to fifth case involves a service industry that highlight on a unique issues within the companies concerned. The sixth case issues on muamalat are not so related to other cases.Since each case is developed by different authors, writing style and technique seem different and may disturb the concentration of the readers.The needs for local and contextual business case studies motivate most of the local case writers to write and compile teaching cases that are interesting and relevant to contemporary business situations and decisions, particularly in Malaysia.

Full textAbstract:
In the next few years, the global burden of disease due to mental illness is likely to overtake that of cancer and heart disease. There is research evidence to suggest that nearly half of psychiatric disorders in adulthood start below the age of 15 and nearly three quarters do so before 24 years indicating specific periods of vulnerability. It is evident that mental health and physical health are strongly inter-connected and yet often the focus of public health is on physical health. Promotion of good mental health and education about prevention of mental illness can take many forms. From teaching parenting skills to learning about managing stress from an early age to early intervention can help reduce the burden of mental illness. Public mental health has come into its own as a speciality of psychiatry and thus of medicine only in the last two decades and that too only in some parts of the world. In spite of the evidence for prevention of mental illness and promotion of mental health is getting stronger by the day there appears to be some reluctance among clinicians to take on the role of educators and advocates for public mental health. A common reason is lack of training in the subject at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels as focus is on treatment rather than prevention. Positive mental health can lead to better outcomes at a number of levels. This book brings together evidence on various aspects of public mental health which can be used for advocacy and education.
