PROJECT LEARNING: CREATING A BIG DATA PROCESSING TOOLKIT FOR USE IN DATE JOURNALISM

В статье рассматривается проблема адаптации образовательной программы подготовки ИТ-специалистов к решению сложных инженерных и, одновременно, творческих задач, связанных с развитием дата-журналистики. В качестве источника больших данных используются открытые государственные данные о системе здравоохранения. В статье отражены отдельные положения проектного обучения, сформированного на стандартах проектной и системно-инженерной деятельности, а также на принципах проведения хакатонов, где главным приоритетом является интеллектуальная составляющая работы команды и ее идеи. Приведены некоторые результаты использования проектного обучения при взаимодействии студентов - будущих ИТ-разработчиков с журналистами и исследователями данных.

(3) Results: The results showed a higher prevalence of DV in adolescents in residential care than that found in other studies with a normative sample. (4) Conclusions: These results support the need for work and research with these minors in residential care. It also gives an important weight to sociodemographic variables, such as age and sex, and also to the types of violence and victimization, i.e., variables to be taken into account in the intervention with adolescents. Future educational programs should consider DV prevention and children in residential care.

A Survey of the Awareness and Educational Needs of Nurses in Nagasaki Prefecture Regarding Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer

The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge and educational needs with regard to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer among nurses working in breast cancer care in the Nagasaki Prefecture. In breast cancer care, the identification of patients at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer is necessary for the implementation of genetic testing and counseling. Nurses should be involved in this process, since they play a crucial role in the care of patients with breast cancer. However, the knowledge regarding hereditary breast and ovarian cancer among nurses working in oncology care in Japan has not been assessed. The design of this study is cross-sectional design. We distributed 597 surveys to nurses working in breast cancer care. The surveys assessed the nurses’ demographic data, their current knowledge and practices regarding cancer genetics and hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, and their attitude and preferences regarding learning about the condition. We received 317 valid replies. Nurses had limited knowledge about hereditary breast and ovarian cancer characteristics: 41.6% reported that they do not know about the condition, whereas less than 10% knew its characteristics. However, nurses were aware of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer significance and were willing to learn about it: 91% wished to learn about the condition, and 88.6% wanted to participate in study group meetings. Further, nurses’ preferences regarding educational programs were clarified. Overall, our results show that educational programs should be implemented to advance nurses’ knowledge of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer characteristics.

Sociocultural Adaptation Among University Students in Hungary: The Case of International Students From Post-Soviet Countries

With the number of international students increasing worldwide, the sociocultural adaptation difficulties that sojourners face should be addressed adequately. This study explored the sociocultural adaptation of international students (N = 267,Mage = 24.5, SD = 4.7) in Hungary. The exploratory factor analysis of the Sociocultural Adaptation Scale yielded five factors: Affiliative Relations, Bureaucracy and Services, Power Relations, Cultural Understanding, and Academic Performance. The students’ countries of origin (post-Soviet countries versus others) and locations of residence (the capital versus small cities) were determinants of sociocultural adaptation. Depressive symptoms, perceived stress, and lower life satisfaction were associated with greater sociocultural adaptation difficulties. Resilient coping was linked with a lower level of difficulties in academic performance (rs = −.20) and cultural understanding (rs = −.15). Our findings supported that the students’ countries of origin, places of residence, and mental health should be considered in improving counseling and educational programs targeting international students.
