Beginning teacher induction is a transition from pre-service teacher preparation to teaching professional which brings a shift in a role orientation and an epistemological move from knowing about teaching through formal study to knowing how to teach by facing daily teaching challenges. This paper deals with the implementation and evaluation of beginning teacher induction programs for technology integration in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) for 24 beginning teachers from the northeastern region in Thailand. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected. Quantitative data were collected from the assessment of the lesson plans and implementation of the lesson plans then analyzed using mean and standard deviation. Qualitative data were collected from three sources: (1) written logs by the participants, (2) data from video observation by the researcher, and (3) field notes by the researcher. Findings from the assessment of the lesson plans and implementation of the lesson plans were at a low level. Almost all participants reported having difficulties in technology integration in CLIL.

The study aims to identify and develop Novice Teacher Induction Program Model in SlemanRegency,Indonesia.ThisstudyusedthemethodofResearchandDevelopment BorgandGall.Inthisstudy,ResearchandDevelopmentwassimplifiedintofourstages from ten steps, namely: (1) the preliminary stage which is the initial research stage and gathering information about the implementation of Primary School Novice Teacher Induction Program (PIGP), (2) planning of Primary School Novice Teacher Induction Program (PIGP) as the development of initial product forms, (3) testing, evaluation and revision stages through assessment of model and product feasibility and limited testing, and (4) implementation phase of Novice Teacher Induction Program (PIGP) for Primary school. The data collection techniques used include: (1) Focus Group Discussion (FGD), (2) observation, (3) interviews, and (4) documentation studies. Next, quantitative and qualitative data analysis were used as data analysis techniques in this research. The study revealed that the development of Novice Teacher Induction Program (PIGP) was carried out in four stages: 1) the stage of designing the model and design, 2) expert validation, 3) testing, and 4) program implementation. At the design stage, the model is designed based on the results of the study and needs analysis of the PIPG model. Based on the results of the needs analysis, the school has a variety of mentoring techniques for novice teachers. However, in general the guidance of the learning process or counseling is carried out by the principal and senior teacher.

BackgroundIn the UK, Clinical simulation is strongly recommended for training in Medicine. In Genito-urinary Medicine, simulation is used for summative assessment for major examination such as Dip GUM and Dip HIV. Unfortunately it's rarely used for training. New Trainees in GUM have very little experience in Sexual Health. A recent in-house survey showed around 85% would have found simulation useful if included in the induction program and would have addressed training needs specific to the speciality.MethodologyAll new trainees will be invited to participate. Faculty will consist of GUM Consultants and Registrars. The course will consist of 2 parts Skills Workshop Using part-task trainers, candidates will rotate through 5 Stations that will include: -Female Pelvis: for speculum insertion, cervical cytology, Microbiology sampling and bimanual examination -Male Pelvis: for examination and sampling techniques -Rectal examination: for proctoscopy and prostate examination -Anatomy of Male and female genital tract using illustrations -Illustrations of Common Dermatological conditions and skin infections and cryotherapy for warts. Scenario-based Simulation: Trainees will participate in simulated communication scenarios.Objectives: 1. To demonstrate good listening skills2. To use simple, clear language when communication with patients3. To develop understanding of ethics, law and consent.ResultsWe anticipate that trainees will have more confidence during clinical consultations and in managing challenging cases.ConclusionsBetter understanding of the team dynamics and nature of work in GUM will improve working relationships which will ultimately result in better patient care.

This chapter studied the current practices of the principals in Al-Ain school district (in UAE) in supporting their novice teachers in their first years of teaching. It aimed at drawing attention to the urgent need for an effective principal who knows the important role he plays, especially with the newly appointed teachers. The study used a literature review to establish a good base of theoretical ideas about the effective role of principals in supporting novice teachers in their first years of teaching. The importance of induction program and its goals and benefits were tackled as well, in addition to the main aspects of the support provided. Moreover, the conceptual framework of the study discussed the methodology by describing the qualitative and quantitative methods used to gather data. The population and the sample, data analysis and discussion, conclusion and recommendations were presented too. Twenty principals and 30 teachers of public and private schools participated in answering a questionnaire. Some of them were also interviewed.

BACKGROUND: Induced sputum cell counts are a noninvasive and reliable method for evaluating the presence, type and degree of airway inflammation in patients with asthma. Currently, standard nebulizer devices used for sputum induction in multiple patients are labelled as single-patient devices by the manufacturer, which conflicts with infection prevention and control requirements. As such, these devices cannot feasibly be used in a clinical sputum induction program. Therefore, there is a need to identify alternative nebulizer devices that are either disposable or labelled for multi-patient use.OBJECTIVE: To apply validated rigorous, scientific testing methods to identify and validate commercially available nebulizer devices appropriate for use in a clinical sputum induction program.METHODS: Measurement of nebulized aerosol output and size for the selected nebulizer designs followed robust International Organization for Standardization methods. Sputum induction using two of these nebulizers was successfully performed on 10 healthy adult subjects. The cytotechnologist performing sputum cell counts was blinded to the type of nebulizer used.RESULTS: The studied nebulizers had variable aerosol outputs. The AeroNeb Solo (Aerogen, Ireland), Omron NE-U17 (Omron, Japan) and EASYneb II (Flaem Nuova, Italy) systems were found to have similar measurements of aerosol size. There was no significant difference in induced sputum cell results between the AeroNeb Solo and EASYneb II devices.DISCUSSION: There is a need for rigorous, scientific evaluation of nebulizer devices for clinical applications, including sputum induction, for measurement of cell counts.CONCLUSION: The present study was the most comprehensive analysis of different nebulizer devices for sputum induction to measure cell counts, and provides a framework for appropriate evaluation of nebulizer devices for induced sputum testing.
