UNSTRUCTURED In the integrated management of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), health education plays an important role and directly affects patients’ blood glucose level control, pregnancy, and neonatal outcome. The rapid growth of the Internet has ushered in an era of big data and the rational use of the Internet. We developed an innovative mobile application (app) combining a teaching model of the flipped classroom and GDM management, which allows pregnant women to learn about and help prevent GDM. This app can overcome the treatment barriers for those patients that cannot go to the hospital, enhance health promotion efforts, and improve GDM management.

Women’S Preferences

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to gain insight into justice-involved women’s preferences for an internet-based Sexual Health Empowerment (SHE) curriculum. Design/methodology/approach The authors analyzed data from four focus groups conducted with 52 women in a minimum-security county jail in a Midwestern US city. Findings Women reported daily access to the internet while in the community and use of the internet for searching about health concerns. Four themes emerged in the discussion about preferences for an internet-based SHE curriculum, that it cover healthy sexual expression, how to access resources, video as an educational modality and a non-judgmental approach. Practical implications Justice-involved women are potentially reachable through internet-based health education. Their preferences for content and modality can be used to inform internet-based sexual health programming designed specifically for this population. Using this modality could offer easily disseminated, low-cost and consistent messaging about sexual health for a vulnerable group of women. Originality/value Though internet-based health education programming has been widely utilized in the general population, less attention has been paid to if and how these programs could be utilized with a vulnerable group of women who move between the justice system and communities. This exploratory study begins to fill that gap.

A bus rider often faces the problem of losing track with the bus timing and position. Towards the goal of making it easy for the student boarding college buses, we make use of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. It provides the followingservices for the bus users: 1) location and progress information of the required bus 2) tracking nearby buses and3) automatic attendance registration of the bus. With this system, we describe various challenges and a few potentialsolutions such that the bus riders feel more convenience with this integration of Internet of Things (IoT) to transportservices.

This study is a literature review. The flipped classroom is the latest pedagogical model that has the potential to change the current traditional way of teaching. Flipped classroom emphasizes on learning activities that promote critical thinking and motivation among the students with the assistance of technology. The flipped classroom allows educators to move from ‘the sage on the stage’ to ‘the guide on the side. The basic and simplest form of flipped classroom is students are expected to watch digital resources prior to class. The students are then required to come prepared for class and perform hands-on activities that are related to the digital resources. The digital resources can be in any form such as video, audio or the internet. This allows teachers to spend more time with their students to carry out in class activities and allow immediate response to students’ needs. Student feedback on this pedagogy was generally very positive with many respondents considering it effective and helpful for learning. One of the biggest advantages mentioned by students is that they had the option to watch each video lecture as many times as required to be prepared for class.
