Professional Requirements

One of the necessary and mandatory conditions for high-quality professional art education is training in an environment that encourages creative work and provides the necessary level of comfort, ergonomic, technological, sanitary and technical requirements and proper organization of labour protection. Compared to other artistic professions, the working environment of a sculptor is more complex. It must be equipped with the necessary technical equipment (mostly quite large) and manual and mechanical tools, take into account functional requirements and complex technological processes, as well as provide the necessary and diverse indicators of lighting level, temperature, humidity, noise, etc. All these requirements also apply to sculpture academic workshops, where students learn the basics of the profession. Subsequently, graduates of sculpture departments use the acquired skills in their creative activities. Stating a certain degradation of the requirements for the profession of the sculptor, the authors of the publication express worries about the obvious underestimation of requirements for the workplace of a professional sculptor, which can be observed in numerous examples, and remind the reader of these basic requirements

The burden on health systems due to increased volume of patients with HIV continues to rapidly increase. The goal of this study was to examine the experiences of HIV care providers in a high patient volume HIV treatment and care program in eastern Africa. Sixty care providers within the Academic Model Providing Access to Healthcare program in western Kenya were recruited into this qualitative study. We conducted in-depth interviews focused on providers’ perspectives on health system factors that impact patient engagement in HIV care. Results from thematic analysis demonstrated that providers perceive a work environment that constrained their ability to deliver high-quality HIV care and encouraged negative patient–provider relationships. Providers described their roles as high strain, low control, and low support. Health system strengthening must include efforts to improve the working environment and easing burden of care providers tasked with delivering antiretroviral therapy to increasing numbers of patients in resource-constrained settings.

AbstractIn much of the current discussions on business environments, a recurring theme both for academics and practitioners is that it is marked by inherent uncertainty (unknown unknowns). Hence, knowledge workers must have skills and understanding of the possible ways to navigate through and adapt to constant change. However, the tendency of prevailing approaches to curriculum development to focus on (static) learning outcomes, we argue, is not appropriate to train young people to adapt to the unpredictable working environment. Instead, more dynamic approaches to curriculum are required, which would instead focus on learning as a continuous relearning and emergent process of adaptation and stimulate students' inquiry and intellectual and creative skills. This paper approaches the issue by discussing the opportunities of using scenario thinking and development together with a personal learning environment and network (PLE&N) for co-creating a curriculum with students, teachers, and practitioners in higher education. In short, the methodology underpinning scenario development recognizes that uncertainty can be best dealt with and understood from the perspective of a range of possibilities and multiple futures through a facilitated, coherently structured process. PLE&N, on the other hand, serves as a learning space which stimulates self-regulated and network-based learning. The paper contends that curriculum informed by such a design methodology would lead to more frequent and appropriate updates as well as equip students with skills to work in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment.

Ceramic Decoration

Regardless of the type of product or the differences in its basic elements, the product graphic is synonymous with high beauty, uniqueness, and precision. It is parallel with the beautiful ornaments that adorn the surface of the ceramic product, which originate from diverse civilizations and reflect the maker's creative inspiration. The decal is based on the most advanced and widely used ceramic decoration techniques in Europe and China, which serves as an inspiration for the rest of the globe when it comes to putting decoration to their products. Whichever is the case, the manufacturing and distribution expenses of decal decoration techniques are considerable, needing extensive preparation and execution to provide a high-quality result. As a result, the invention of the 'Dummy Decal' decoration process has enabled manufacturers of ceramic products to maintain a consistent level of output while adding differentiation to their designs. Water Based Inkjet Water Transfer Paper is a fresh source of inspiration for creative items and ceramic works. With a modest access fee and the ability to purchase, this decoration serves as a magnet for contemporary products and creative works. This article can be used as a guide and resource for small and medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals, to assist them in developing their creative thinking when it comes to marketing their organic products.

Paraeducators are often utilized in physical education environments to assist instructors as well as students with disabilities; however, there is little research on the utilization of these professionals within this setting. This study explored paraeducators’ perceived roles and competencies in physical education from the perspectives of both paraeducators and physical educators. This study was conducted with physical educators and paraeducators serving as participants and completing a content-validated survey on the various roles typically assumed by paraeducators when assisting in physical education classes. Data were analyzed via descriptive statistics and t tests, and differences between physical educators and paraeducators were identified. Results indicated these key findings: (1) There was a significant difference in the perception of role clarity of paraeducators between participant groups, (2) there was a significant difference in the perception of role ability of paraeducators between participant groups, and (3) there was not a significant difference between groups in terms of the training needs of paraeducators specific to physical education. Using the results of this study, physical educators and paraeducators can work together to provide the best learning environment possible within physical education for students with disabilities and within the working environment for both physical educators and paraeducators.

This study investigates a proposal to relocate a secondary school in Taiwan because of political and urbanization forces. This important issue has received little attention in the educational literature. Interviews, a focus group, and surveys were used to collect the views of parents, students, teachers, administrators, and local influential people. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis was adopted to evaluate the possibility of school relocation. The results showed that teachers were less likely to agree to relocate, whereas policymakers supported the move. The principal, many students, and their parents would agree to relocate if the new site offered a high-quality learning environment.

Background: The potential of digital technologies is far from being exhausted for patients. The regulatory framework becomes a brake on innovation due to digitalisation, but also due to the trend towards individualisation. Strategies, corporate culture and processes, which are necessary for the design of high-quality and cost-effective healthcare services, are still lacking in many healthcare providing organisations. Health Services 4.0 and patient integration as leverage: With Health Services 4.0 it is possible to improve the outcome of the individual healthcare service and meet the regulatory requirements. This requires the capabilities of the provider to dynamically balance exploitation and exploration. The challenges are to develop innovations in a continuously changing working environment and/or to adapt (medical) technical innovations into their own service processes. Conclusion: This article is focused on hypotheses of cause-and-effect analyses formulated as scenarios, related to the implementation of digital technologies in order to improve efficiency and effectiveness for a high medical expertise as well as for a higher level of service quality. The output is a more detailed analysis of key value drivers, success factors as well as internal and external value generators for the design of Health Services 4.0. Up to now many issues regarding the use of digital technologies are still only partly analysed and not yet proved for a more efficient care on high-quality level. The company's capacity for ambidexterity is becoming an important dynamic capability, with on one hand flexibility for new developments and on the other hand stability for hard factors in physical value chains and soft factors in value-oriented attitudes and behaviour based on empathy.
