Este artigo relata as ações extensionistas de produção e difusão de materiais educativos sobre o coronavírus desenvolvidas por estudantes de Enfermagem e Medicina durante a pandemia. As ações do projeto foram organizadas recorrendo às redes sociais Instagram e Facebook, com postagens semanais de boletins epidemiológicos e artigos científicos. Foram desenvolvidas cartilhas educativas sobre temas emergentes na pandemia, tais como aleitamento materno, cuidado a criança em idade escolar, população privada de liberdade e mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica. Os materiais também foram enviados por e-mail para estudantes, técnicos e docentes da Universidade. As métricas do Instagram mostram o alcance das ações em um número de seguidoras da população feminina, jovem e residente em Chapecó. A experiência relatada possibilitou aos estudantes a execução de atividades em consonância com as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais, desenvolvendo competências necessárias para atuação nas áreas da atenção, gestão e educação em saúde. Os acadêmicos puderam desenvolver habilidades comunicativas em saúde, apreender diferentes tecnologias digitais, melhorar o uso das línguas estrangeiras, conhecer o trabalho interprofissional, aprimorar a busca em base de dados internacionais e entender o raciocínio clínico epidemiológico. A efetivação das diretrizes nos currículos dos cursos da área da saúde é um desafio importante para a formação de profissionais voltados para a atuação e defesa do SUS. Portanto, é fundamental que a extensão seja desenvolvida dentro dos cursos da saúde, enquanto processo essencial para a formação e como produtora de cuidado nos locais onde está inserida. Palavras-chave: Educação em Saúde; Isolamento Social; Extensão Universitária; Redes Sociais Production and dissemination of educational materials during the COVID-19 pandemic: extension experiences in health education Abstract: This article reports the extension actions for the production and dissemination of educational materials on the coronavirus developed by Nursing and Medicine students during the pandemic. The project's actions were organized using Instagram and Facebook's social networks, with weekly posts of epidemiological bulletins and scientific articles. Educational booklets were developed on emerging themes in the pandemic, such as breastfeeding, care for school-age children, the population deprived of liberty, and women victims of domestic violence. The materials were also sent by email to students, technicians, and professors at the University. Instagram metrics show the reach of the actions in the number of followers of the female, young, and resident population in Chapecó (Santa Catarina State, Brazil). The experience reported enabled students to carry out activities in line with the National Curriculum Guidelines, developing the necessary skills to work in care, management, and health education. Students were able to develop communication skills in health, learn different digital technologies, improve the use of foreign languages, learn about interprofessional work, improve the search in international databases and understand the clinical and epidemiological reasoning. The guidelines implementation in the curricula of the health area is an important challenge for the training of professionals focused on the performance and defense of the SUS. Therefore, it is fundamental that extension is developed within health courses, as an essential process for training and as a producer of care in the places it is inserted. Keywords: Health Education; Social Isolation; University Extension; Social Media

An inquiry science-based education is commonly followed in a variety of educational contexts around the world and is a key parameter in various national curriculum guidelines. The impetus of this chapter is to record the initial and final reactions of science teachers participating in a series of one-year action research and training program that took place in the University of Crete (UoC) in 2013-2016, identify their perception of the first training course, and explore the impact this data had on the program's redesign for the following training session by the technical board. Teacher reactions and responses regarding what they thought had, and had not, worked well in their classes were taken into account prior to re-designing the training program that the new teachers were going to join the following year. Looking into the general benefits as well as challenges, the authors also examined the overall effect of the UoC IBSE training program to participants as reported by both students and teachers.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide insight into teachers’ practice in implementing school-based health promotion. Design/methodology/approach – This qualitative research was designed as a multiple case study. The study involved five schools, 233 pupils in the age 12-16 and 23 teachers. The primary data generation method were focus groups. Findings – According to the national guidelines the health education in primary schools in Denmark should be based on the critical approach to health education developed within the European Network of Health Promoting Schools. However, the study showed that teachers’ implementation of the guidelines in practice was closer to traditional health education, which focuses only lifestyle change, than to critical health education which also explores the underlying conditions for health. Research limitations/implications – The study explored teachers’ implementation practices, and the individual and institutional factors that influence the practice. This paper restricts itself to examining teachers’ practice against the national curriculum guidelines. Practical implications – The teachers were not sufficiently familiar with the curriculum guidelines or the critical approach to health education. The inclusion of the national curriculum and the principles of critical health education in the initial and in-service professional development of teachers is an urgent priority if this gap is to be reduced. Originality/value – This paper contributes to the debate related to the potentials and barriers for implementing of health promotion interventions in a school context.

<p class="Paragraph"><span lang="EN-GB">The objectives of the study are to conduct a survey among students and teachers of Russian universities, which will determine their general attitude to the use of social networks in education; to identify the functions of social networks from the perspective of respondents; based on the results of both stages of the study, to determine the role of social networks in the educational process. Students and teachers of four Russian universities (MGIMO University, Kuban State Technological University, North-Eastern Federal University, Russian State Social University) took part in the survey. A total of 500 students and 100 teachers were interviewed. The results of the first part of the study showed that the attitude of students and teachers towards the use of social networks in education is generally positive. Both groups of respondents noted the advantages of introducing social networks into the educational process and also stated their willingness to increase their use. When using social networks in education, students can fill in special forms to indicate social network accounts to be subsequently used. Also, the administration of group chats can be taken under the control of the university for the purpose of a more structured exchange of information/educational materials.</span><strong></strong></p>

Microcomputers offer the potential for increasing the effectiveness of language intervention for school-age children and adolescents who have language-learning disabilities. One promising application is in the treatment of students who experience difficulty comprehending figurative expressions, an aspect of language that occurs frequently in both spoken and written contexts. Although software is available to teach figurative language to children and adolescents, it is our feeling that improvements are needed in the existing programs. Software should be reviewed carefully before it is used with students, just as standardized tests and other clinical and educational materials are routinely scrutinized before use. In this article, four microcomputer programs are described and evaluated. Suggestions are then offered for the development of new types of software to teach figurative language.

University is relatively considered a stressful moment in the life of students due to numerous academic workloads and academic activities. The situation is further aggravated by the fact that some university students are in emerging adulthood, a developmental period which is psychologically fraught with uncertainty, instability and identity issues among others. Added to these, the context of most universities like Cameroon which is marred with political, economic and social turbulence common to other developing societies in the sub Saharan region makes life unbearable. Looking at the challenges that confront tertiary education students in the third decade of life, increases possibilities of fears that they will founder thus narrowing the route to a blossomed transition into adulthood and through the university from home into the world of work. However, observations reveal that some have remained hopeful as they continuously believe in themselves and their worth. As such, they have resiliently shrugged off the vast burden placed on them by the adult society as they struggle intentionally with continuous efforts to succeed. Being hopeful and self-efficacy beliefs are observed to be some of the effective drivers that pull emerging adults through the storms of university transition thus facilitating positive development into subsequent life stages. Unfortunately just a paucity of literature albeit theoretically actually narrates via scholarly corridors the monumental successes recorded by students as they sail flourishingly through university in the midst of storms an in the third decade of life. This paper examines and addresses the foregoing through the lenses of some theories.

This chapter outlines the historical background and current development of music education assessment in China. Following the revision of the national curriculum guidelines in 2011, the chapter analyzes (1) the value of the national standards at different school levels, (2) how the national standards affect teachers and schools, and (3) how much the teachers read/follow the guidelines in China. This chapter investigates and examines how assessment policy and practice are used in Chinese music classrooms from elementary, middle, and high schools. Furthermore, it discusses how local music teachers assess their music students and the effectiveness of the national curriculum guidelines used in music classes. The author determines that the current practice of music assessment at all school levels in China is too basic and not diversified. Designing a valid assessment that allows students at all levels to demonstrate their learning outcomes seems to be necessary for music education in China.

In a digital and interconnected context, where educational processes are in constant change, active methodologies take on a relevant role by making students the protagonists of their learning. Among the different possibilities, the flipped classroom stands out for its time optimization, the incorporation of technological resources, and the personalization of the processes. The aim of this research is to analyze the perception of higher education students about the usefulness of the flipped classroom as a methodology. The information was collected with a validated instrument, which was applied to a sample of 123 students from the Faculty of Educational Sciences of the University of Málaga (Spain). A positive evaluation of the usefulness of the flipped classroom as a learning methodology was reflected in the results, highlighting its instrumental dimension. Significant differences were perceived regarding the usefulness of the flipped classroom for the promotion of autonomous learning, which had a superior valuation according to women. In conclusion, the flipped classroom stands as a methodological alternative to promote learning that has a positive evaluation from the students that made up the sample.

The primary goal of this study was to examine young adults’ perspectives about the effects of their food allergies (FAs) on their social lives from school-age to young adulthood. Young adults aged 18–21 ( n = 10) at the University of South Carolina were interviewed. A qualitative descriptive method to find themes and commonalities from transcribed interviews was used for data analysis. Identified themes were (1) feeling different and being isolated, (2) strategies for managing feeling different and being isolated, (3) strategies for managing safety, and (4) acceptance of myself and by others. School-age children attributed the school lunch allergy table as contributing to social isolation. Additionally, participants described feeling different and concerns about safety. Strategies to mitigate those experiences were identified by participants. Implications for children with FAs, their parents, school nurses, and other education and health professionals who work with children are presented.
