This article provides a descriptive study of the FSU Rock Ensemble to demonstrate the value of providing inclusive popular music-based ensemble learning and opportunities in higher education. Beginning with an autoethnographic study of my experiences as a drummer in – and eventually director of – the non-auditioned ensemble, followed by a consideration of the attitudes articulated by several other drummers who recently participated in the ensemble, I analyse how musicians learn a traditionally non-academic music in an academic space. I conclude with a critical assessment of challenges that the group faced, with the hope that such considerations are useful for universities interested in establishing similar ensembles. Overall, the inclusive nature of the Rock Ensemble facilitated interactions that I argue are advantageous within the current climate of North American higher education, allowing students, drummers and non-drummers alike, unprecedented opportunities to perform music they love, forge new relationships and engage with the local community.

ABSTRACT Background: Indonesia is one of the countries affected by COVID-19 pandemic. In overcoming this pandemic, the government waives the service fees for COVID-19 patients. It provides an opportunity for hospitals serving COVID-19 patients to submit claims for treatment financing to the Ministry of Health. There are technical guidelines for payment; there are still frequent problems, leading to a dispute. This is also experienced by the University of Indonesia Hospital (RSUI) as one of the COVID-19 referral hospitals. This study aimed to provide an overview of the claim problem encountered and their solution. Subjects and Method: This was a descriptive study conducted at University of Indonesia Hospital from July, 2020. The theme of this study was problem in claiming payments for COVID-19 patients. Several informants were selected for this study included: hospital claim officers, medical record units, inpatient units and registration units. The data were collected by observation, in-depth interview, disputed claim data. Results: The results of the investigation found that the problem of dispute claims for COVID-19 in RSUI was dominated by the incompleteness of filling in administrative files as evidence of service practice for patients in the field, such as incomplete ventilator usage curves (7.8%), swab results (3.9%), and rapid test (6.8%) which was not listed. Conclusion: Discipline needs to be applied in the completeness of documents, and a clear flow of patient care is required to avoid incomplete records.

En este trabajo se analizan las deficiencias y avances que se han generado en el marco del Programa Institucional de Formación Docente de la Universidad de Sonora y su contribución al desarrollo de la enseñanza mediante la capacitación del profesorado sobre el uso de Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación en la enseñanza. Es un estudio de corte cuantitativo en el cual se aplicó un cuestionario a 80 profesores, de distintas disciplinas, quienes han participado en cursos de capacitación que ofrece la institución para el uso de recursos digitales. Los resultados revelan la necesidad de ofrecer capacitaciones acordes a los requerimientos particulares de la planta docente, así como cursos especializados enfocados en instruir cómo emplear pedagógicamente las tecnologías en cada asignatura con el propósito de mejorar el ejercicio docente. También se advierte que la formación ofrecida en la institución poco ha logrado motivar a los profesores para utilizar las tecnologías.Training and use of ICT in higher education: teachers opinionsAbstractThis paper analyzes the deficiencies and progress that has been generated under the Institutional Program of Teacher Training of the University of Sonora and its contribution to the development of teaching through teacher training on the use of Information and Communication Technologies in teaching.

Healthy Calf

An outbreak of botulism was suspected at an Austrian dairy farm in June 2010. Six Simmental cows, out of a herd of 29, were affected and showed the typical signs. The affected cows included either animals suffering from sudden recumbency and reduced tongue tone or others which developed paresis, which gradually led to recumbency. Most of the affected animals died. Two cases were submitted to the Clinic for Ruminants at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna in order to clarify the cause of illness. The animals had reportedly been fed recently with silage possibly polluted by discarded cat carcasses spread onto the pasture used for the silage in question. The two referred cases both showed recumbency and swallowing difficulties. Both cows had to be euthanized. One of the two cows was in the late stage of pregnancy and a healthy calf could be delivered by Caesarean section. The outbreak of botulism was diagnosed clinically as well as by confirmation of Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins C and D by mouse bioassay. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first report in which a live calf has been delivered out of a cow suffering from acute botulism.

This qualitative and descriptive study aimed to identify how nursing course professors approach death and dying in the university and what the implications are on the formation process. Ten professors of the undergraduate nursing course were intentionally selected and underwent semi-structured interviews, which were recorded. The thematic analysis of the data revealed that the presence of the fact caused insecurity in the interviewees and portrayed the lack of preparation in the undergraduate course, which could indicate a certain difficulty working with this theme. Furthermore, the interviewees highlighted the importance of working with death and dying. It is essential to understand the university to be a transforming agent of reflective subjects and a promoter of conditions for the student to experience the aspects involved in the care when faced with death.

BACKGROUND: Circulus arteriosus cerebri is the main source of blood supply to the brain; it connects the left and right hemispheres with anterior and posterior parts. Located at the interpenducular fossa at the base of the brain the circle of Willis is the most important source of collateral circulation in the presence of the disease in the carotid or vertebral artery.AIM: The purpose of the research is to study the diameter and length of arteries and provide an important source of reference on Kosovo’s population.METHODS: This is an observative descriptive study performed at the University Clinical Center of Kosovo. A randomised sample of 133 angiographic examinations in adult patients of both sexes who were instructed to exploration is included.RESULTS: The diameters and lengths measured in our study were comparable with other brain-cadaver studies especially those performed by MRA. All dimensions of the arteries are larger in male than female, except the diameter of PCoA that is larger in female (p < 0.05) and length of the ACoA (p < 0.05). Significant differences were found in diameters of arteries between the younger and the older age groups.CONCLUSION: Knowing the dimensions of the arteries of the circle of Willis has a great importance in interventional radiology as well as during anatomy lessons.
