Using the Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle to Understand the Application of One Health Competencies to Solving Global Health Challenges; A Tracer Study Among AFROHUN-Uganda Alumni

BackgroundThe Africa One Health University Network (AFROHUN) with support from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), has since 2012 conducted pre and in-service One health (OH) trainings with the objective of improving global health security through a well-trained multidisciplinary health workforce. These trainings aim to build OH competencies among participants with the ultimate goal of promoting a multidisciplinary approach to solving global health challenges. Despite these trainings, there is limited documentation of the extent of acquisition and application of the One Health competencies at workplaces. This tracer study established the extent of acquisition and application of the One Health competencies by the AFROHUN-Uganda alumni.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among a random sample of 182 AFROHUN-Uganda alumni of 2013-2017. A blended approach of interviewer and self-administered was used during data collection. Virtual interviews using zoom and skype, and phone interviews with alumni were conducted when face-to-face interviews were not possible. Data were collected electronically, with the aid of the KoboCollect mobile application, pre-installed on android enabled devices. Data were analysed using STATA14.0.ResultsThe majority of respondents, 78.6% (143/182) had jobs that required application of One Health knowledge and skills, 95.6% (174/182) had learned employable skills from OH activities and 89.6% (163/182) had applied such skills when searching for employment. About 21.7% (34/180) to a very high extent required One Health field-specific theoretical knowledge at their workplaces, 27.4% (43/80) to a very high extent required One Health field-specific practical knowledge/skills, 42.7% (67/180) to a high extent required a change in attitude and perceptions towards working with people from different disciplines, 49.0% (77/180) required collaboration and networking skills, and more than half, 51.0% (80/180) required team building skills.ConclusionThe majority of One Health alumni to a very high extent acquired and applied One Health competences such as teamwork, effective communication, community entry and engagement, report writing and problem-solving skills. This study revealed the significant contribution of the AFROHUN Uganda OH activities towards supportive work environments, and highlights areas of improvement such as supporting the trainees to acquire people-management skills, innovation, and an entrepreneurial mind set.

Prediction of University Student Performance Based on Tracer Study Dataset Using Artificial Neural Network

In order to increase student performance, several universities use machine learning to analyze and evaluate their data so that it enables to improve the quality of education in the university. To get a new insight from the tracer study dataset as the relevance between university performance and student capability with business and industries work, the author will develop a model to predict student performance based on the tracer study dataset using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). For obtaining attributes that correspond to labels, Phi Coefficient Correlation will be used to select the attributes with high correlation as Feature Selection. The author is also performing the oversampling method using Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) because this dataset is imbalanced and evaluates the model using K-Fold Cross-Validation. According to K-Fold Cross Validation, the result shows that K = 3 has a low standard deviation of evaluation score and it's the best candidate of K to split the dataset. The average standard deviation is 0.038 for all score evaluations (Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and F-1 Score). After applied SMOTE to treating the imbalanced dataset with the data splitting 65 training data and 35 testing data, the accuracy value increases by 10% from 0.77 to 0.87.

Analysis of Geologic CO2 Migration Pathways in Farnsworth Field, NW Anadarko Basin

This study reports on analyses of natural, geologic CO2 migration paths in Farnsworth Oil Field, northern Texas, where CO2 was injected into the Pennsylvanian Morrow B reservoir as part of enhanced oil recovery and carbon sequestration efforts. We interpret 2D and 3D seismic reflection datasets of the study site, which is located on the western flank of the Anadarko basin, and compare our seismic interpretations with results from a tracer study. Petroleum system models are developed to understand the petroleum system and petroleum- and CO2-migration pathways. We find no evidence of seismically resolvable faults in Farnsworth Field, but interpret a karst structure, erosional structures, and incised valleys. These interpretations are compared with results of a Morrow B well-to-well tracer study that suggests that inter-well flow is up-dip or lateral. Southeastward fluid flow is inhibited by dip direction, thinning, and draping of the Morrow B reservoir over a deeper, eroded formation. Petroleum system models predict a deep basin-ward increase in temperature and maturation of the source rocks. In the northwestern Anadarko Basin, petroleum migration was generally up-dip with local exceptions; the Morrow B sandstone was likely charged by formations both below and overlying the reservoir rock. Based on this analysis, we conclude that CO2 escape in Farnsworth Field via geologic pathways such as tectonic faults is unlikely. Abandoned or aged wellbores remain a risk for CO2 escape from the reservoir formation and deserve further monitoring and research.

Analysis of User Satisfication with Graduates in Statistical Study Program Universitas Terbuka

Revolution 4.0 requires the Universitas Terbuka Statistics study program to change the educational curriculum that aims to produce quality graduate competencies. Therefore, to collect informationand evaluate the competence of graduates, it is necessary to conduct tracer study research on each graduate. This study aims to measure user satisfaction with graduate competencies using Gap analysis, Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA), Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), and a multi-attribute Fishbein model. Based on the value of Gap and Science, the main priority that must be improved by graduates to meet user expectations is the ability to solve problems, generate ideas, and be able to present the results of these ideas in the form of reports/journals. The value of the level of suitability between user satisfaction and the importance of the ability of graduates is very good at 92.87% and a CSI value of 78.25%, which means that overall user satisfaction with graduates is good, besides thatbased on the results of the multi-attribute Fishbein model, an Ao value of 158.20 which means that graduate users have a positive attitude towards the abilities of UT Statistics program graduates.
