SummaryPost-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a long-term complication of deepvein thrombosis (DVT). The Villalta scale is the recommended tool for diagnosing PTS, but requires a clinician’s assessment in addition to patient self-assessment. In the present study, we validated a self-administered tool for patient reporting of leg symptoms and signs as a mean to assess PTS. We first validated a form for patient self-reported Villalta (PRV1), then developed and validated a visually assisted form (PRV2). The validity of PRV1 and PRV2 was assessed in patients diagnosed with DVT between 2004 and 2012. Median time from DVT to inclusion was 5.1 and 3.5 years for PRV1 (n=162) and PRV2 (n=94), respectively. Patients were requested to complete the PRV form before a scheduled visit. PTS diagnosed by the original Villalta scale during the visit served as the reference method. PRV1 showed only moderate agreement for diagnosing PTS compared with the original Villalta scale (kappa agreement 0.60, 95 % CI 0.48–0.72), whereas PRV2 showed very good agreement (0.82, 95 % CI 0.71–0.94). In the validation of PRV2, PTS was diagnosed in 54 (57 %) patients according to the original Villalta scale and in 60 (64 %) by PRV2. The sensitivity of PRV2 to detect PTS was 98 % and the specificity was 83 %. We conclude that the visually assisted form for PRV is a valid and sensitive tool for diagnosing PTS. Such a tool could be applied in further clinical studies of PTS, making studies less resource demanding by reducing the need for in-person clinic visits.Supplementary Material to this article is available online at www.thrombosis-online.com.

 This study aims to describe the implementation of Project-Based Learning models in geography learning. The type of research is survey research. The subjects in this study were the teacher of geography, the deputy head of the curriculum, and the principal. Data collection techniques are interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the form of Project-Based Learning implementation in learning geography with details: learning planning, learning implementation, and learning assessment. In learning planning is done by analyzing the contents of the 2013 curriculum content and learning design planning. Furthermore, the implementation of learning is done by determining the project, designing project completion steps, preparing project implementation schedules, completing projects, preparing reports, presenting project results, and evaluating project processes and results. Meanwhile, the assessment of learning is carried out on the aspect of attitude using observation techniques, self-assessment, and assessment between friends. Assessment of aspects of knowledge using written test techniques and assignments, as well as skills assessment using project results assessment techniques.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan implementasi  model Project-Based Learning pada pembelajaran geografi. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian survei. Subjek pada penelitian ini adalah guru mata pelajaran geografi, wakil kepala bidang kurikulum, dan kepala sekolah. Teknik pengumpulan data adalah wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bentuk implementasi Project-Based Learning pada pembelajaran geografi dengan rincian: perencanaan pembelajaran, pelaksanaan pembelajaran, dan penilaian pembelajaran. Pada perencanaan pembelajaran dilakukan dengan menganilisis standar isi kurikulum 2013 dan desain  pembelajaran. Selanjutnya, pelaksanaan pembelajaran dilakukan dengan penentuan proyek, perancangan langkah-langkah penyelesaian proyek, penyusunan jadwal pelaksanaan proyek, penyelesaian proyek, penyusunan laporan, presentasi hasil proyek, dan evaluasi proses serta hasil proyek. Sementara, penilaian pembelajaran dilakukan pada aspek sikap dengan menggunakan teknik observasi, penilaian diri, dan penilaian antar teman. Penilaian pada aspek pengetahuan dengan menggunakan teknik  tes tertulis dan penugasan, serta penilaian keterampilan dengan menggunakan teknik penilaian hasil proyek.

The existing tools for assessing the effectiveness of educational programs differ in the degree of effectiveness, applicability, and costs. The self-assessment method, which involves the determination of the level of expression of various qualities by students of educational programs before and after graduation. The method of assessing students' own competencies has significant limitations associated with social desirability. Nevertheless, the article analyzes the possibilities of using this method to assess the effectiveness of corporate educational programs. The results of using the self-assessment method to assess the effectiveness of corporate educational programs conducted in large organizations are presented. The possibilities and limitations of using various kinds of criteria for evaluating themselves by listeners are substantiated. The conclusion is made about the possibility of using the self-assessment method in the case of the focus of educational programs on the development of meta-competencies of managers. The article provides data on the assessment of learning outcomes, discusses the potential reasons for the differences obtained in the framework of projects, as well as the possibilities and limitations of using the self-assessment method to assess the educational effect of corporate training programs.

The use of PowerPoint (PPT)-based lectures in business classes is prevalent, yet it remains empirically understudied in business education research. The authors investigate whether students in the contemporary business classroom view PPT as a novel stimulus and whether these perceptions of novelty are related to students' self-assessment of learning. Results indicate that the degree of novelty that undergraduate business students associate with PPT-based teaching significantly relates to their perceptions of PPT's impact on cognitive learning and classroom interaction. Students' views of PPT as a novel stimulus are also associated with their perception of specific constructive and dysfunctional classroom behaviors and attitudes. The authors discuss their findings and offer implications for instructors and researchers in business education.
