This paper describes the role of an actress in a program for the psychiatric education of nonpsychiatrist physicians and nurses. Not only can the actress use her skills in role-playing and simulated interviewing situations, but she can also become an active and essential member of the psychiatric teaching team. In the program described here, the actress has come to serve as an individual and group therapist and as a communications facilitator. The situations in which she can effectively serve these functions are delineated, and the general implications for a broader role for an actress in continuing education programs are discussed.

This paper traces the development of digital and data curation curricula. Due to the brief length of this paper, the focus is on North American initiatives and primarily on continuing education programs. It explores the strengths and weaknesses of professional workshops and the creation of graduate-level courses, certificates, degrees and MOOCs, as well as the role of funding agencies in this process. It concludes with an analysis of what is missing and what is needed to create the workforce required to steward digital assets in the foreseeable future.

Some typical activities of health educators employed in public and private settings in California are reported. These reports are based upon interviews with a number of directors of health education programs and the chairpersons of two university programs. Typical activities include the generalist role of rural health educators, the emphasis of urban health educators on health promotion programs, patient education as a major activity of health educators in medical care settings, and the continued commitment of health educators in occupational settings to community health education. The diversity of activities in which health educators in California are engaged suggests the outlook for the eighties is for many arenas for the practice of health education.

With wind turbines increasing in size, installed at greater distances from the mainland, and greater depths, submarine cables are facing new challenges. Materials and technologies used so far for the production of submarine cables with lead, aluminium, or copper sheaths make them unsuitable or even obsolete for modern solutions such as floating wind farms. The article discusses types of submarine cables, their construction, working conditions, and operational factors, with emphasis placed on the role of the radial water barrier. The focus has been placed on dry and semi-dry designs. The article is also devoted to a discussion regarding directions of further development, possible materials, and constructions that may appear in the future. Current research and results regarding the use of multi-layer coatings with the use of thermoplastic block copolymers for the layer with high moisture absorption are also presented.
