8. INCORPORATING THE MATURE STUDENTS VOICE AND LIVED EXPERIENCES INTO CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT.

Abstract

Improving academic quality requires feedback from students since they have specific insight in their lived educational experience. Most institutions assess educational experience by evaluating individual modules. Few institutions collectively review evaluation data from multiple modules or explore this data for evidence of curriculum transformation. The University of Pretoria developed four curriculum transformation drivers and the School of Health Systems and Public Health developed and implemented 19 transformation-related statements. We revised the standard endof- module evaluations to explore student experiences regarding the implementation of these drivers. 45 modules were reviewed. The quantitative data were analysed in Excel. Qualitative data were analysed using an inductive approach with open-coding. We generated categories and themes before comparing these to the curriculum transformation drivers. Four major themes emerged from the qualitative data: reflecting the "what", "why", "when", "where", "how" and "who" of the student experience. Categories and subcategories were explored and linked to the quantitative results. The results show that the students valued their educational experience and felt valued as students. The students' voices provided a rich source of data regarding curriculum transformation and included detailed suggestions for quality improvement. Our study presents substantive evidence of authentic educational and philosophical intentions that were realised in practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

10. Student recruitment in private nursing education institutions in South Africa

Author

Lubbe, J. C. and Lubbe, J. C.

Abstract

English: Nurses form the cornerstone in achieving the millennium goals of the WHO with regard to health care. However, 57 countries worldwide are facing a severe health workforce crisis. Various solutions have been proposed to address the nursing staff shortage. One of the aspects that has been greatly neglected in South African research, however, is the initial recruitment of nursing students. Despite the critical importance of recruiting the best possible students for nursing education and training, very few private Nursing Education Institutions (NEIs) have a specific recruitment plan geared towards student recruitment. There is considerable evidence in the literature that some NEIs lack strategic planning for the recruitment of their students and that they do not always include all relevant stakeholders when initiating a recruitment drive. This study deals with the development of an action plan to aid with the recruitment of nursing students for private NEIs in South Africa. This study was structured around an adapted version of the process-planning model, as originally described by Zuber-Skerritt in 2002. Originally, a qualitative design with some quantitative enhancement was used. It was characterised by a descriptive, exploratory, and contextual focus. Three researcher-developed survey-questionnaires were used. During the last round of questionnaires, a quantitative approach, with qualitative enhancement was used. Final data analysis was done with the assistance of the SPSS software program. This study concluded with a generic action plan that was validated by experts in the field of student recruitment., Afrikaans: Verpleegkundiges vorm die hoeksteen om die WGO se millennium doelwitte vir gesondheidsorg te bereik. Wereldwyd is daar egter 57 lande wat tans 'n ernstige tekort aan gesondheidspersoneel ervaar. Verskeie voorstelle is al geopper om verpleegpersoneeltekorte aan te spreek. Een van die aspekte wat egter grotendeels in Suid-Afrikaanse navorsing oorgesien word, is die aanvanklike werwing van verpleegstudente. Afgesien van die kritieke belangrikheid om die bes moontlike studente vir verpleegopleiding te werf, het baie min private verpleegonderriginstansies 'n bepaalde werwingsplan om studente te werf. Daar is vo ldoende bewys in die literatuur dat sommige verpleegonderriginstansies 'n gebrek aan strategiese beplanning ten opsigte van hul studentewerwing het en dat hulle nie altyd al die betrokke belanghebbers by die instelling van 'n werwingsveldtog betrek nie. Hierdie studie handel oor die ontwikkeling van 'n aksieplan vir die werwing van verpleegstudente om opleiding by private verpleegonderriginstansies in Suid-Afrika te ondergaan. Die studie is saamgestel met die grondslag van 'n aangepaste weergawe van die prosesbeplanningsmodel wat oorspronklik in 2002 deur Zuber-Skerritt beskryf is. Aanvanklik is 'n kwalitatiewe ontwerp met behulp van kwantitatiewe bystand gebruik. Dit is deur 'n beskrywende, ondersoekende en konteksuele fokus gekenmerk. Orie vraelyste wat deur die navorser ontwikkel is, is aangewend. Tydens die laaste fase van die studie is kwantitatief gebaseerde vraelyste met behulp van kwalitatiewe ondersteuning aangewend. Die SPSS-sagtewareprogram is gebruik om die data behoorlik te analiseer. Die studie, wat deur kundiges op die vakgebied van studentewerwing bevestig is, het met 'n generiese aksieplan geeindig.

11. Paper Retrieval Based on Specific Paper Features: Chain and Laid Lines.

Author

Gunsel, Bilge, Jain, Anil K., Tekalp, A. Murat, Sankur, Bülent, Staalduinen, M., Lubbe, J. C. A., Backer, E., and Paclík, P.

Abstract

This paper presents paper retrieval using the specific paper features chain and laid lines. Paper features are detected in digitized paper images and they are represented such that they could be used for retrieval. Optimal retrieval performance is achieved by means of a trainable similarity measure for a given set of paper features. By means of these methods a retrieval system is developed that art experts could use real-time in order to speed up their paper research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

12. SCHOLARSHIP OF DISCOVERY: ENHANCING A RESEARCH CULTURE IN NURSING COLLEGES.

Abstract

The scholarship of nursing depends on the research culture in institutions. Not all higher education institutions globally expect from diploma prepared nurses to be research trained, but it is expected in the South African and African context. Globalisation and the migration of degree and diploma prepared nurses, should sensitize the global nursing community about the challenges faced when nursing colleges or learning centres, offering diploma programmes, become part of the higher education sphere and need to contribute to the scholarship of discovery. This article reports on strategies that could be implemented in higher education institutions, such as colleges, to enhance the research culture. A qualitative research design was used and data gathered through a nominal group technique with 12 students from different institutions as well as reflection reports from five nurse educators involved in research training and supervision. Participants indicated that the most important aspect that needed to be addressed in nursing education was improved research knowledge for students, nurse educators and research supervisors. Institutions where nurse educators do not have master's degrees should implement strategies to support students and educators in enhancing their research capacities and skills in order to improve the institution's research culture. University nursing schools, which have research mentors, should become role models/mentors to support enhancing a research culture in nursing colleges in South Africa and Africa.

13. A modulated Parzen-windows approach for probability density estimation.

Author

Goos, Gerhard, Hartmanis, Juris, Leeuwen, Jan, Xiaohui Liu, Cohen, Paul, Berthold, Michael, Eijkel, G. C., Lubbe, J. C. A., and Backer, E.

Abstract

The Parzen-window approach is a well-known technique for estimating probability density functions. This paper introduces a modulated Parzen-windows approach. This approach uses kernels at equidistant samples to obtain a probability density function more efficiently. Experiments on both artificial and real data show that the modulated Parzen-windows approach is more efficient in probability density function estimation, without costly preprocessing or severe loss of accuracy.
