Despite the challenges posed by the complexity of studying culture, there remains a critical need to develop cultural competence in nursing. This study investigated how nursing students in rural Indonesia enhance their cultural competence through education and practice. Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive phenomenological approach. It conducted face-to-face interviews with 32 students across 6 regions, selected purposively. Thematic analysis was employed to evaluate the results. Results: Five themes emerge in this research: perceptions of cultural competence, learning cultural competence in the classroom, practical experience, learning expectations related to cultural competence, and cultural learning barriers. Conclusions: Enhancing cultural competence necessitates enriched curricula, adept clinical mentors, and continual student evaluation. This iterative assessment informs tailored strategies for nurturing cultural proficiency.展开更多

To this end, some authors' claims, findings and suggestions offered via particular studies are evaluated. While the evaluated authors have represented secularism as a barrier to teaching evolution in the United States, they have also offered pedagogically theistic or agnostic evolution as the best choice for the reconciliation of religion and evolution. This paper is particularly concerned with one of the explanatory theoretical frameworks—religious cultural competence in evolution education(ReCCEE), which is derived from the cultural competence framework—although others are visited as well. Even though the schools or authors who have applied ReCCEE do not directly reference constructivism, their studies are built upon constructivist pedagogy and epistemological idealism. They often have problematic issues such as obscurantism, ad hominem attacks, cherry-picking and an ill-formed appeal to authority. Besides, these papers present biased or uncritical views and ill-informed definitions of some terms, such as secularism and agnosticism.展开更多

文摘Graduate students universally struggle with vague topics,insufficient innovation,and logical gaps in research proposals,highlighting the need for structured scientific training.This study presents an innovative pedagogical model embedding scholarly literature’s logical architecture into LBL-RBL hybrid teaching,implemented in Kunming Medical University’s Neuropathophysiology course.Targeting the complexity of neurological disease mechanisms,the course integrates lecture-based learning(LBL)and research-based learning(RBL)through a small-cohort framework featuring personalized literature-logic embedding→targeted lecture reinforcement→multi-round proposal iteration.Faculty deconstructed domain literature to establish a three-phase training system(“Logic Demonstration-Methodology Mapping-Proposal Embedding”),systematically merging academic logic with research methodology over 9 weeks.Results demonstrate that this problem-driven approach creates authentic scientific inquiry scenarios,activating student knowledge co-construction and collaborative exploration.It successfully enables dynamic competency progression through“cognitive deconstruction→methodological practice→proposal refinement,”significantly enhancing proposal rigor and innovation.This study offers a scalable dual-track solution for cultivating advanced scientific capabilities in medical graduate education.
文摘This study investigates the correlation between musical competence and English prosodic production as well as the associations among their internal components.Eighty Chinese EFL learners in college took the musical perception test,musical production test and English prosodic production test in sequence.In order to take a closer look at the prosodic performance,taking native English speakers as a reference,we also conducted an in-depth acoustic analysis of the English prosody produced by six cases in both high and low musical competence groups with the aid of Praat and ToBI.Our results indicate that students with high musical competence tend to outperform those with low musical competence in English prosodic production.However,musical perception competence seems to have a greater correlation with English prosodic competence than musical production competence.In addition,beat alignment or tempo(related to time and stress)could be the most associated component in musical competence with English prosody,while melody in music was double confirmed to be unhelpful.It was also spotted that cases with high musical competence performed more native-like patterns of phrase accent,boundary tones,intonational phrases as well as placement of stress.The results have important theoretical implications for the construct interpretation of musical competence,and also suggest that rhythmic perception training could be the most effective way to transfer music achievement to English speech prosody.

文摘This paper elaborates on the approaches to cultivating core competencies for college English talents under the background of New Liberal Arts,focusing on four key aspects:transmitting of Chinese culture in English to cultivate students’cultural confidence in the context of globalization,fostering their interdisciplinary competencies through the crossover of different disciplines and knowledge fusion,utilizing big data and emerging technologies to develop students’language proficiency and autonomous learning abilities,and aligning education with societal needs by integrating theoretical learning with practical teaching,thereby enhancing students’social engagement and problem-solving skills.The study aims to advance the reform of foreign language education in the new era,enhance the competitiveness of future professionals,and guide students toward a sound personal and professional development.
文摘The implementation of core competencies clarifies social talent needs and guides math classroom evaluation.Lower-grade primary students,highly malleable,need targeted teacher guidance.Teaching evaluation should meet the talent demands of the times,focusing on core literacy and essential character development.From this perspective,primary math teachers should optimize evaluation,build a diversified system,help students grow in math,find their learning position,and advance confidently.
文摘Social competence encompasses the knowledge,sensitivities,and skills needed to collaborate effectively with others in society.Waldorf pedagogy,with over a century of history,centers on the idea that children discover and understand the world around them through the arts.Educational activities like drama,movement arts(eurythmy),singing/music,and crafts play a key role in fostering children’s social skills.Moreover,the close cooperation between subjects in the Waldorf curriculum further enhances the social sensitivity and cooperative abilities of future generations.This study aims to explore the moral significance of“social empathy”and to share the authors’pedagogical experiences on how social competence can be developed through this pedagogical method.

文摘BACKGROUND Death anxiety(DA)is a prevalent psychological challenge among oncology nurses that affects their emotional well-being and professional competence in coping with death-related situations.Death-related attitudes and resilience are critical factors that may mediate the relationship between DA and coping with death competence(CDC).However,few studies have examined the chain-mediating effect of these factors among Chinese oncology nurses.This study aimed to investigate the association between DA and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses,with a focus on the mediating roles of death attitude and resilience.AIM To investigate the association between DA and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses.using an electronic questionnaire distributed in Wenjuanxing,China.In total,615 valid responses were obtained.The participants completed the Templer death anxiety scale,death attitude profile-revised,Connor-Davidson resilience scale,and coping with death scale.A chain mediation analysis was performed using the PROCESS macro in SPSS to examine the relationships between these variables.RESULTS The findings indicated that DA had a significant direct effect on CDC[effect=0.201,95%confidence interval(CI):0.112-0.322].In addition to this direct effect,three significant indirect pathways were observed:(1)Death attitude(effect=0.118,95%CI:0.056-0.163);(2)Resilience(effect=0.108,95%CI:0.032-0.176);and(3)A sequential mediation pathway involving both death attitude and resilience(effect=0.071,95%CI:0.042-0.123).The total indirect effects of the three mediation paths accounted for 29.7%of the relationship between DA and CDC.CONCLUSION Using a chain mediation model,this study explored the mechanisms linking DA,death attitude,resilience,and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses.These findings highlighted the crucial role of death attitude and resilience in mediating the relationship between DA and CDC.Interventions aimed at fostering adaptive attitudes toward death and enhancing resilience may improve nurses’ability to cope with death-related stressors,ultimately benefiting their psychological well-being and professional competence.
