Abstract The concepts of sustainability and sustainability competence are controversial, complex, difficult to define and measure, and have varied meanings for different people and practices. Given the complex nature of sustainability, there is limited availability of paradigmatic frameworks to guide educators in assessing sustainability competencies. This paper introduces the Dispositions, Abilities and Behaviours (DAB) framework, which influenced the design of an intervention in 2013-2014 that profiled sustainability competencies among final year undergraduate students in a higher education institution. The results of the mixed methods study indicate that the DAB framework has good potential as a guide to educators or researchers in understanding and profiling sustainability- related abilities, attitudes and actions (areas of performance) of cohorts of students within higher education settings.

Considering the new digitization trends in the hospitality industry, only companies with employees with high-level digital competence will be able to survive, adapt and develop. The dual study environment of a higher education institution ‒ the study environment of a higher education institution and the environment of professional activities plays a major role in the development of digital competence. On the basis of the ecological approach, there has been the context of information and communication technology environment viewed in the article within the substantiation of digital competence. The aim of the study was: during the pedagogical experiment to approbate the developed “Model of the dual study environment of a higher education institution” and to evaluate university hospitality students’ competitiveness including digital competence as competitiveness integral part. To find out how significantly has changed the self-evaluation of students’ digital competence after the prospective hospitality business managers’ competitiveness facilitation in the framework of the developed dual study environmental model. Both before and after the pedagogical experiment the students performed the self-evaluation of digital competence by using the authors’ developed and examined competitiveness evaluation methodology. The obtained results testify that the developed and approbated model for promotion of competitiveness development in general impacted self-assessments of the students' digital competence during the pedagogical experiment.

Objetivo: conhecer a prevalência, os medicamentos utilizados e os principais motivos da automedicação entre os discentes de um curso de enfermagem em uma instituição de ensino superior. Método: estudo transversal descritivo, de abordagem quantitativa, com amostra de 126 estudantes matriculados no curso de graduação em enfermagem de instituição pública. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de um questionário estruturado disponibilizado por aplicativo e foram analisados por estatística descritiva. Resultados: os estudantes tinham entre 18 e 25 anos de idade (85,7%), a maioria do sexo feminino (92,9%) e moravam com familiares (86,5%). Observou-se um alto índice de automedicação (99,2%), e a classe medicamentosa prevalente foi a dos analgésicos (28,7%) utilizados para alívio rápido da dor (88,1%) e levados à utilização pelo próprio conhecimento (73,8%). Conclusão: a alta prevalência de automedicação coloca em risco a saúde dos estudantes e reforça a necessidade de implementação de políticas públicas para a conscientização sobre o uso racional de medicamentos.

This paper discusses some aspects related to the dynamics of physical agent friction in orthodontic appliancesclassified as self-ligating. For this, it presents information on clinical follow-up performed on a patientsubmitted toorthodontic treatment during a specialization course in orthodontics, held in a higher education institution located in the northwest of Paraná state. Such patients mostly had deep bite, mild midline shift and anterior crossbite side and central incisors, in which we used a self-ligating device, which has among other features, a considerable reduction in friction during movement, dispensing bandages with a consequent reduction in treatment time. After the analysis, we found that the self-ligating system have lower friction, can provide benefits to patients such as no need for extraction and reducing the treatment time
