Disasters involving children are becoming more and more frequent. Thus, optimal preparedness will be a challenge for every Western pediatric disaster specialist. However, for any appropriate decision to be made, there must be a practical tool for accurately evaluating the levels of specific disaster awareness and preparedness. This tool is based on the idea that child injury prevention campaigns [n = 6] are usable as a platform for the simulation of specific pediatric disaster scenarios, and that different simulations might be able to modulate overall awareness and overall preparedness levels, as well as affect the training provided. Data are gathered from a disaster phase-related (Haddon-Matrix) set of questionnaires answered by key disaster response personnel [n = 58]. Overall awareness for a pediatric disaster scored highest for the “in the world” scenarios, with less, but with similar scores for “in the country” and “in the region” scenarios. Overall preparedness scored low for “in the world”, with higher scores for “in the country” and “in the region”. Both, overall awareness and overall preparedness scored inconsistently for “in the hospital” in the first instance, but later in the matrix, “in the hospital” had the highest scores. In general, basic knowledge about disaster plans is moderate, and knowledge about existence and activation of preparedness measures is above average. Individual position-taking and feelings of personal competency in position-taking is low, especially among junior staff. Currently, only a group of seniors are able report participation in a specific training. This platform is an upgradable tool for the awareness of and preparedness for pediatric disaster assessments, regarding phases, locations, and training, with promising trends for their modulation, especially among junior staff.

TRAINING OF HYPNOMATHEMATICS THROUGH POSITIVE WORDS FOR TEACHERS AT SD 4 BAE. Mathematics is known as a subject that plays an important role in the world of education. Mathematics is also a basic knowledge that students must have in order to be able to continue to a higher level. Mathematics in elementary school is known as a subject that many students don't like and fear because it is considered difficult. The emergence of fear and difficult assumptions in mathematics due to the lack of students are motivated to learn Mathematics. From the results of the observations, it was found that teachers tended to be less attentive to students who were not active in mathematics, teachers also did not respond well when students had difficulty learning mathematics, teachers used negative words and were more inclined to frighten students who experienced difficulties in learning mathematics, and the teacher does not give a positive response to student success. Based on these problems, the purpose of these service is to provide training in hypnomathematics through positive words. Provide training in hypnomathematics through positive words that are able to improve teacher skills in motivating students to learn mathematics.The target of this service is to provide knowledge and training to teachers at SD 4 Bae about using hypnomathematics through positive words to motivate students.The method used in this service is interactive training and mentoring. As a result of this service, SD 4 Bae teachers were able to improve their skills in motivating student learning during mathematics learning.

Despite the increased use of convergent beam diffraction, symmetry concepts in their more general form are not commonly applied as a practical tool in electron microscopy. Crystal symmetry provides an abundance of information that can be used to facilitate and improve the TEM analysis of crystalline solids. This paper draws attention to some aspects of symmetry that can be put to practical use in the analysis of structures and morphologies of two-phase materials.It has been shown that the symmetry of the matrix that relates different variants of a precipitate can be used to determine the axis of needle- or lath-shaped precipitates or the habit plane of plate-shaped precipitates. By tilting to a special high symmetry orientation of the matrix and by measuring angles between symmetry-related variants of the precipitate it is possible to find their habit from a single micrograph.

Light, Everything we currently, ever, or will see in the world, the fact is due to the presence of light. without light there is no color, shape, and of course we cannot distinguish the material, distance, and the nature of the object when not it’s not illuminated by light. Therefore the author felt it is important to discuss about lighting, especially for applications in the author’s field of interest, 3D Animation. In this journal, will be found an alternative to a more efficient way to do lighting and rendering in 3D animation projects using a variety of theories and basic knowledge of light.

Vulnerable People

In Japan, older adults account for the highest proportion of the population of any country in the world. When large-scale earthquake disasters strike, large numbers of casualties are known to particularly occur among seniors. Many are physically or mentally vulnerable and require assistance during the different phases of disaster response, including rescue, evacuation, and living in an evacuation center. However, the growing number of older adults has made it difficult, after a disaster, to quickly gather information on their locations and assess their needs. The authors are developing a proposal to enable vulnerable people to signal their location and needs in the aftermath of a disaster to response teams by deploying radar reflectors that can be detected in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite imagery. The purpose of this study was to develop a radar reflector kit that seniors could easily assemble in order to make this proposal feasible in practice. Three versions of the reflector were tested for detectability, and a sample of older adults was asked to assemble the kits and provide feedback regarding problems they encountered and regarding their interest in using the reflectors in the event of a large-scale disaster.

Medical and orthopaedic training varies throughout the world. The pathways to achieve competency in orthopaedic surgery in other countries differ greatly from those in the United States. This review summarizes international educational requirements and training pathways involved in the educational development of orthopaedic surgeons. Understanding the differences in training around the world offers comparative opportunities which may lead to the improvement in education, training, and competency of individuals providing orthopaedic care.

AbstractObjectiveHealth diplomacy has increasingly become a crucial element in forging political neutrality and conflict resolution and the World Health Organization has strongly encouraged its use. Global turmoil has heightened, especially in the Middle East, and with it, political, religious, and cultural differences have become major reasons to incite crises.MethodsThe authors cite the example of the human stampede and the deaths of over 2000 pilgrims during the 2015 annual Haj pilgrimage in Mecca.ResultsThe resulting political conflict between Iran and Saudi Arabia had the potential to escalate into a more severe political and military crisis had it not been for the ministers of health from both countries successfully exercising “soft power” options.ConclusionGlobal health security demands critical health diplomacy skills and training for all health providers.
