The goal of this study is to see how problem-solving learning paradigms affect students' grasp of physics ideas. This study is a quasi-experimental study. The sample was chosen using the cluster random class methodology, which consisted of two classes, the first of which was taught using a problem-solving learning model and the second of which was taught using traditional methods. Experiment classes provide problem-solving opportunities to help students better understand physics ideas, while control classes are taught in a traditional manner. Pre- and post-test results from students in both classes were used to collect data. The two-way Anava-test was applied, and the level of significance was found to be 0.000 (sig. 0.05), indicating that problem solving learning is beneficial in improving students’ understanding of physics concepts.

AbstractEducation brings changes in behavior of the individual in a desirable manner. It aims at all round development of an individual to become mature, self-sufficient, intellectually, culturally refined, socially efficient and spiritually advanced. In experience- based is that the experience of the learner occupies central place in all considerations of teaching and learning. A key element of experience-based learning is that learners analyze their experience by reflecting, evaluating and reconstructing it in order to draw meaning from it in the light of prior experience. The main aim of the study is to assess the knowledge of nursing students before and after Experience based learning and to determine the attitude of EBL at the end of the field trips. A quasi Experimental research design was adopted. Sample free technique was used to select the 90 B.sc and M.sc (N) students. The data was collected by using semi structured knowledge questionnaire. Inferential and descriptive statistics was used to analyze the data. There was a significant difference in pre test and post test mean score (t= 15.98 at p<0.001). A weak positive correlation was found between post- test knowledge and attitude. There is a significant improvement in knowledge of students in various child welfare services among the present students (c =3.18±.421) than the previous year (c=2.86 ±.371).

Mouthwash is an additional mechanical oral cavity cleaning method which is known to reduce oral bacterias that causes plaque build ups. Mouthwash may and may not contain alcohol. The objective of this study was to determine the alterations on the oral cavity environment (salivary pH and plaque index) before and after gargling with alcohol and non-alcohol mouthwash, and to analyze which of the mouthwash is more effective. This study was an experimental study with one group pre test and post test experimental design. The subject of this study was 16 of University of Sumatera Utara’s female undergraduates whose age ranges from 18–23 years old and accorded to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects were divided in two groups, subjects were instructed to used the mouthwash twice a day for seven days, then salivary pH and plaque index were measured at third and seventh day of used. Repeated Annova test results shown a significant decreas on salivary pH and plaque index after gargled with mouthwash containing alcohol, in the non-alcohol mouthwash there was a significant decreased in plaque index but none on the salivary pH. Dependent T-test results shown that there were no difference in salivary pH and plaque index after gargled with alcohol containing and non-alcohol mouthwash. This study shows that non-alcohol mouthwash is better because there were a significant decrease in plaque index, without caused significant decreases in pH scores.

The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to examine the effects of viewing the feature film Wit on the empathy ratings of nursing students. The Jefferson Scale of empathy (JSE) was used to measure nursing students’ empathy levels. Findings suggest a statistically significant increase in empathy scores in the experimental group from pre-test to post-test #1 (t = 2.60; p = 0.0133) and also from pre-test to post-test #2 (t = 2.10; p = 0.0424). In this study, the experience of viewing the film, as opposed to classroom teaching alone, enhanced student empathy ratings.

Objective: To determine the impact of a course aimed at the care of persons with drug dependence on the beliefs and intentions of drug use among bachelor nursing students. Materials and methods: A quasi-experimental study conducted with a non-equivalent comparison group composed of 210 Mexican students of both sexes. Two Likert-type instruments were used to measure the beliefs and intentions of drug use, before and after a semester-long course. Results: At the end of the study, a significant interaction was found (F = 3.56, p = 0.050, η2p = 0.025), which suggests a greater decrease in beliefs in favor of drug use among students who took the course on drug addiction. Regarding drug use intentions, a general decrease was observed in the entire sample (F = 10.13, p = 0.002, η2p = 0.059). Conclusions: Courses on the care of drug addiction can have beneficial effects on nursing students by modifying beliefs and intentions to carry out unhealthy behaviors such as the use of substances. These results demand to verify if the effects remain beyond the completion of university education.

Massage will also stimulate the vagus nerve which will produce gastrin and insulin enzymes so that absorption of the digestive tract is better, the stomach is empty faster, and the baby will be hungry more often, so the baby will suckle more often, and the end result will be an increase in baby's weight. One of the most important indicators in assessing nutritional fulfillment in infants is taking into account body weight (Zulhaida, 2003). Weight is the most important anthropometric measure, used at every opportunity to examine the health of infants in all age groups (Soetjiningsih, 1998: 38). This research is a quasi-experimental study with pre and post test designs in the same group. The researcher will assess the nutritional status of infants aged 5-12 months before and after the traditional massage (pe'e). Sampling was carried out in Bolo Subdistrict, Bima District by using Purposive sampling, which was conducted in September to November 2018 with a total sample of 140 respondents. Data was collected using an observation sheet. The results of this study found that the weight of infants aged 5-12 months before peee was in the sub-normal category, the weight of infants aged 5-12 months experienced an increase after pe'e I and pe'e II, the results of data analysis found there was an influence weight gain before and after pee is done in infants aged 5-12 months

Abstract Background: Currently, there has been a progressive shortage of not only the number of frontline healthcare providers but also a decline in the quality of nursing care. Reports about unethical and illegal practices, under standard care and malpractices, are not uncommon around the globe. There is a growing concern to rethink the approaches on how nurses are prepared, explore, and test novel approaches for delivering the nursing curricula. This study tested the effect ofthe Problem Based Facilitatory Teaching Approach on motivation to learn among nursing students in Tanzania, higher learning institutions.Methods: A pre-post test controlled quasi-experimental study of purposively selected 401 participants was conducted between February and June 2018. The Auditing Inventory developed by the researcher measured the intervention and Questionnaire titled “Motivation to Learn Strategies in Nursing”, was adopted to measure the motivation to learn, respectively. Statistical Product for Service Solutions software program version 23 was used to perform analysis. A descriptive analysis was performed to analyze sociodemographic. Regression analysis was performed to determine the association between variables. This study was not a clinical randomized controlled trial and thus it has not been identified in the title and no summary of trial design, methods, results, and conclusion.Results: Findings revealed that 65.8% of the study participants were males. The post-test findings revealed that 70.3% of the study participants demonstrated motivation to learn contrary to 34.9% at baseline. Participants in an intervention group were 1.720 (AOR) times more likely to develop motivation to learn than the control group (p<0.05; 95%CI: 1.122, 2.635). In contrast, the intervention was less times likely to enhance Extrinsic motivation to learn (AOR = 0.676, p>0.05, 95%CI: 0.405, 1.129) and Amotivation (AOR = 0.538, p>0.05; 95%CI: 0.283, 1.022) in learning among nursing students respectively.Conclusion: Problem-based facilitatory pedagogy had positive effect on motivation to learn including intrinsic motivation than conventional teaching pedagogy. Thus, the approach has educational potentials to positively change the spectrum of nursing competency and quality of care. Thus, the move to adopt a problem-based facilitatory teaching pedagogy among nursing training institutions in Tanzania is worth considering and needs to be continued.
