The Impact

The study aimed at exploring the impact of training using the concept planning strategy to develop the university concepts and language skills of deaf and hard of hearing students at King Saud University. The study sample consisted of 30 deaf and hard of hearing students enrolled in the deaf and hard of hearing project at King Saud University Second semester (2018, 1439). The proposed training program, using the concept planning strategy, greatly influenced the development of the cognitive aspects of deaf and hard of hearing students. The concept planning strategy also helped deaf and weak students organize and express their ideas.

And Training

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.

We present the results of a training program with future Primary Education teachers on the impact on motivation and perception of learning achieved through strategies and techniques associated with gamma and flipped-classroom. The program was run in four classroom groups (n = 210) at the University of Murcia (Spain) and the aim was to analyze the effect that the gamification-based and flipped-classroom program has on motivation and learning. Information was collected through a perceptions questionnaire. Descriptive statistics are shown; mean tests (t of Student and ANOVA of a factor) and Pearson correlations between subscales. The data show a very positive impact on motivation, the learning achieved, and the strategies applied in the program. Some differences between group-class and gender are discussed, and some future improvements of the program are put forward.

Significant Direct Effect

The development of language skills in a second language as well as knowmad skills are key to the future employability of students. This research aims to analyze the impact of the introduction of a specific methodology implying the development of both types of skills on the student’s motivation and satisfaction in order to foster the development of a bilingual itinerary. The methodology is based on Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and the sample involved 227 students of the Degrees in Tourism of the University of Córdoba (Spain). Through a model of structural equations, the data analysis revealed that the development of language skills in an L2 and the development of knowmad skills had a significant direct effect on the students’ motivation towards learning a second language. The indirect effect of the development of these skills on the students’ satisfaction with the teaching experience was also significant.

The Impact

With nearly 8,000 languages used in the world and increasing levels of transnational mobility, the cultural and linguistic heterogeneity of deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) learners accessing education and therapy services has never been greater. This growing diversity creates a challenge for educators and clinicians who work with these children and their families, especially where DHH learners are exposed to or acquiring more than one spoken language. Spoken language multilingualism in DHH learners is an area in which research knowledge is gradually increasing but evidence-based practices for intervention and education are rarely described. This chapter presents information describing the increasing linguistic diversity and spoken language multilingualism of DHH learners and research concerning the advantages and disadvantages of multilingualism. The current research describing the speech and language skills of multilingual DHH learners is discussed with reference to the impact of multilingualism on learners’ outcomes.

The study aimed to identify the effectiveness of a training program in sustainable development practices based on problem solving for the development of environmental awareness and volunteer work skills of students of the Faculty of Science and Humanities at the University of Sattam Bin Abdul Aziz. The study used the semi-experimental method. The researcher used two tools (environmental awareness scale,  attitude test). The study sample consisted of (45) female students of scientific departments at the University of Sattam Bin Abdul Aziz in Aflaj and Aldalm governorates. The results showed the effectiveness of the training program in developing the environmental awareness and volunteer work skills of the students of the study group. The value of "T" on the scale of awareness of total environmental problems (8.325),  which is a statistical value at the level of significance (α = 0.01),  and the value of "T" in the test of attitudes to the skills of volunteer work (24.7) α = 0.01). The results revealed a statistically significant relationship between awareness of environmental problems and volunteer work skills (0.81). In light of the results,  a number of recommendations and proposals were presented to increase environmental awareness and volunteer work skills among Saudi youth.

English Language Skills

Madrasa teachers working in marginalized institutions get training, but this training is not commensurate with the level of learning crisis they face. They are victims of both 'teaching and training poverty'. This actually explains for their inability to understand English and to impart training in foundational English Language skills: literacy, numeracy, digital, and transferable skills. Unable to find opportunities for acquiring these skills, Madrasa teachers are not able to connect themselves with the mainstream education and therefore miss opportunities for productive employment. The impact of 'learning and training poverty' on the morale of the Madrasa teachers is well established as they miss opportunities normally linked with their disadvantaged conditions, yet their religious sentiment remains a significant concern. In view of these, the chapter looks at the possibility of a ‘degree of fit' English training program so as to focus on Madrasa mainstreaming with a view to building more spaces for training-employment connectivity.

Purpose. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of a 3-month physical training program, conducted in an aquatic environment with end-stage renal disease patients (ESRD), on the physical fitness and functional parameters of the knee joint muscles.Patients and Methods. The study included 20 ESDR patients with mean age64.2±13.1 y. treated with hemodialysis in Dialysis Center of the University Hospital in Wroclaw. Before and 3 months after the physical training in water, a test was performed to evaluate the physical fitness of each patient; additionally, a measurement was taken of force-velocity parameters. The 3-month training program took place on nonhemodialysis days, in the recreational pool of the University of Physical Education in Wroclaw.Results. After aquatic training cycle, an improvement was observed in all parameters measured using the Fullerton test. The value of peak torque and its relation to body mass increased in the movement of flexors and extensors of left and right lower extremities in all tested velocities.Conclusions. In assessing the physical fitness of studied women, the biggest improvement was achieved in tests assessing the strength of upper and lower extremities as well as lower body flexibility. Higher values of force-velocity parameters are conducive to women achieving better physical fitness test results.
