This is a recovery workbook that provides clients with practical information and skills to help them understand and change their problems with alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs, such as marijuana, cocaine or methamphetamine, heroin or fentanyl, or nonprescribed addictive medications. The workbook is designed to be used in therapy or counseling and will help to focus on specific issues involved in stopping substance use and in changing behaviors that keep substance use problems active. The information presented is derived from research, clinical and recovery literature, and the authors’ many years of experience working with clients who have alcohol, tobacco, and other drug problems. It discusses the most effective and helpful recovery issues and change strategies from studies of cognitive-behavioral treatment, coping skills training, 12-step counseling, and relapse prevention. These treatment approaches focus on the importance of changing beliefs, thinking, relationships, and behaviors and learning skills to help clients stay sober and change their lives. The goals of this workbook are to help clients reach maximum treatment benefit by motivating them to develop and implement a personal change plan and to provide them with practical strategies and skills to cope with the most common problems and challenges encountered when substance use is stopped.

Skills Education

The Army Job Skills Education Program (JSEP) is a dual curriculum that reminds soldiers to use learning skills while they take CAI lessons that train basic math and verbal job competencies. Prior to entering the JSEP basic skills curriculum, soldiers are taught self-motivational techniques and strategies for studying and solving problems. Each type of learning skill is represented and trained by a different character model. These characters appear as prompts throughout the basic skills curriculum to remind soldiers to recall and use their new learning skills. In this article, the rationale for the curriculum model is overviewed and preliminary field trial data are reported.

Registration Period

This study aims to determine the effect of the Independent Learning Skills Training on student motivation in distance learning systems at UPBJJ-UT Ternate. The research sample was new Bidikmisi scholarship students in UPBJJ-UT 2019.2 registration period, namely 20 students. The results of the regression analysis produce the equation Y = a + bX = 5.274 + 1.337X. This means that each increase in the quality of Independent Skills Training by 1 unit will increase Student Learning Motivation by 1,337. The coefficient of determination (R Square) of 0.712 explains that the contribution of the influence of the PKBM variable (X) to the Learning Motivation variable (Y) is 71.20%. While the remaining 28.80% is influenced by other variables not examined. Based on these results, the researcher proposes that UT should continue to be able to improve PKBM standards to be better so that it helps new UT students in their learning process. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh Pelatihan Keterampilan Belajar Mandiri (PKBM) terhadap motivasi belajar mahasiswa pada sistem belajar jarak jauh di UPBJJ-UT Ternate. Populasi penelitian adalah mahasiswa baru UPBJJ-UT Ternate yang menerima beasiswa Bidikmisi di masa registrasi 2019.2 sebanyak 20 mahasiswa. Dimana seluruh populasi dijadikan sebagai sampel penelitian. Dari hasil analisis regresi menghasilkan persamaan Y = a + bX = 5.274 + 1.337X. Artinya bahwa setiap peningkatan kualitas Pelatihan Keterampilan Mandiri sebesar 1 satuan, maka akan meningkatkan Motivasi Belajar Mahasiswa sebesar 1,337 satuan. Hasil koefisien determinasi R2 (R Square) sebesar 0,712 menjelaskan bahwa presentase sumbangan pengaruh variabel PKBM (X) terhadap variabel Motivasi Belajar (Y) sebesar 71,20%. Sedangkan sisanya 28,80% dipengaruhi atau dijelaskan oleh variabel lain yang tidak dimasukkan dalam model penelitian ini. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, maka peneliti mengusulkan agar UT harus terus dapat meningkatkan standar PKBM sehingga semakin baik dan dapat membantu mahasiswa baru UT dalam menjalani proses belajarnya.

Accent Modification

Hospital reimbursements are linked to patient satisfaction surveys, which are directly related to interpersonal communication between provider and patient. In today’s health care environment, interactions are challenged by diversity — Limited English proficient (LEP) patients, medical interpreters, International Medical Graduate (IMG) physicians, nurses, and support staff. Accent modification training for health care professionals can improve patient satisfaction and reduce adverse events. Surveys were conducted with medical interpreters and trainers of medical interpreting programs to determine the existence and support for communication skills training, particularly accent modification, for interpreters and non-native English speaking medical professionals. Results of preliminary surveys suggest the need for these comprehensive services. 60.8% believed a heavy accent, poor diction, or a different dialect contributed to medical errors or miscommunication by a moderate to significant degree. Communication programs should also include cultural competency training to optimize patient care outcomes. Examples of strategies for training are included.

Abstract The purpose of this article is to look at the word learning skills in sequential bilingual children—children who learn two languages (L1 and L2) at different times in their childhood. Learning a new word is a process of learning a word form and relating this form to a concept. For bilingual children, each concept might need to map onto two word forms (in L1 and in L2). In case studies, I present 3 typically developing Hmong-English bilingual preschoolers' word learning skills in Hmong (L1) and in English (L2) during an 8-week period (4 weeks for each language). The results showed gains in novel-word knowledge in L1 and in L2 when the amount of input is equal for both languages. The individual differences in novel word learning are discussed.
