BACKGROUND Artificial intelligence-generated changes will have a major impact on nursing management. OBJECTIVE To determine the opinions of university students about the effects of artificial intelligence on the future of nursing. METHODS In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with university students. The study included 12 senior-level students’ participants, who were selected by simple random sampling from different departments of Turkish universities in Istanbul. Data were analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis. RESULTS The participants defined artificial intelligence in terms of robots, robotized intelligence, machine learning and personal assistants. The participants listed the effects of artificial intelligence on nursing as a decrease in the number of nurses, a reduced workload for nurses, easier patient follow-up, a decreased margin of error, the use of robots for patient transport, the use of robots to position patients, the use of robots to measure vital signs, and the use of robots in psychomotor skill training. CONCLUSIONS In line with these results, it can be recommended that new subjects on AI and its role in the future of nursing be added to relevant education programs. This study is one of the first qualitative studies involving students in Turkey to be conducted artifical intelligence. Health and nursing policymakers should be develop courses in the curriculum that will increase student awareness of healthcare managers and policymakers researches about artificial intelligence.

Despite extensive evidence of the restorative effects of nature, the potential vitalizing effects of connecting with nature are yet understudied, particularly in higher education settings. University students face high levels of stress and anxiety, and may benefit from nature-based interventions that enhance positive states such as vitality. Using preliminary data from a pilot randomized controlled study with qualitative interviews, we explored the psychological experiences associated with a brief walk either in nature or an urban environment in a sample of 13 university students. The qualitative thematic analysis revealed that walking in nature was a more energizing and vitalizing experience than the urban walk. The nature walk was also found to have both affective and cognitive enhancing effects on participants. Our study highlights the usefulness of exploring subjective psychological experiences of interacting with nature, as well as supporting its restorative potential. Implications for further research and interventions are discussed.

The Future

Four types of intelligence are relevant to any discussion relating to the future of graduate education: basic IQ (or intelligence quotient), emotional intelligence, artificial intelligence, and cultural intelligence (CQ). All of these will have an increasing impact on the roles of both university students and academics in the future. The difficulty is in assessing what changes these are likely to bring to the educational landscape. This chapter attempts to understand the drivers of change and the likely outcomes. Some small proposals are then made as to how both universities and students should plan for their future. This chapter will not assist you on learning how to play the violin.

Contemporary Chinese

Dominant design narratives about “the future” contain many contemporary manifestations of “orientalism” and Anti-Chineseness. In US discourse, Chinese people are often characterized as a single communist mass and the primary market for which this future is designed. By investigating the construction of modern Chinese pop culture in Chinese internet and artificial intelligence, and discussing different cultural expressions across urban, rural, and queer Chinese settings, I challenge external Eurocentric and orientalist perceptions of techno-culture in China, positing instead a view of Sinofuturism centered within contemporary Chinese contexts.

Market Opportunities

The world of work has been impacted by technology. Work is different than it was in the past due to digital innovation. Labor market opportunities are becoming polarized between high-end and low-end skilled jobs. Migration and its effects on employment have become a sensitive political issue. From Buffalo to Beijing public debates are raging about the future of work. Developments like artificial intelligence and machine intelligence are contributing to productivity, efficiency, safety, and convenience but are also having an impact on jobs, skills, wages, and the nature of work. The “undiscovered country” of the workplace today is the combination of the changing landscape of work itself and the availability of ill-fitting tools, platforms, and knowledge to train for the requirements, skills, and structure of this new age.
