£12.00 (including tea). Lunch can be booked in advance for an additional £10.00.
Amesbury is now proudly recording itself as the oldest continually inhabited place in England. Our day will start in Amesbury Church where we will have a talk by Colonel Peter Tustin on the area from the mesolithic to the reformation period. We will then visit the small town museum to see finds from the recent excavation at Blicks Mead. Lunch will be taken in the elegant rooms/gardens of the Antrobus Arms (or you can bring a picnic).
We will then, by kind permission of the Reid family, go into the Abbey mansion for tea and cake in the Drawing Room. There we will be given a talk by Captain William Perkins on the development of the post reformation house and the Marquess of Queensberry's important landscaped garden of the eighteenth century. After that we will visit the grounds to look at the grotto, Chinese pavilion and Blicks Mead with its natural springs that were so significant in the prehistoric era.

The African Report
The African Report on Child Wellbeing series is a pan-African project initiated to promote state accountability to children and mobilise legal, policy and administrative actions towards progressive realisation of the ideals and principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC). The Report regularly assesses the extent to which African governments are living up to their commitments to children and provide critical analyses of strengths and weaknesses of national efforts made to put in place child-sensitive laws and policies and effectively implement them.
International Policy Conference on the African Child
The International Policy Conference on the African Child (IPC) is a major event aimed at promoting policy dialogue and providing a platform for leading thinkers, policy makers, practitioners and activists to positively engage and interact on the challenges facing children in Africa and the policy choices that governments could consider to promote children's rights and wellbeing. The IPC has, within a relatively short period of time, become a high-powered event, and the premier forum on children's issues in Africa.
Previous themes included: The African Child and the Family (2004), Violence against Girls in Africa (2006), Child Poverty in Africa (2008), Budgeting for Children in Africa (2010), Inter-country Adoption (2012), Social Protection in Africa (2014), Crimes and Extreme Violence against Children in Africa (2016) and Child Hunger in Africa (2019).

Violence against Girls at Work in Africa

According to the 2002 global estimate1 on child labour, the percentage of economically active children is higher in Africa than any other region: 48 million children aged five to fourteen, or 29 per cent of children in this age group, work. Nearly 21 million of these children are under 10 years old. These children are frequently victims of maltreatment, physical and psychological violence or abuse by supervisors, co-workers and outsiders in their places of work – fields, mines, workshops, private homes and other settings.
The terms 'workplace' and 'work situations' are used in this paper to refer to factories, farms and other traditional places of economic production, as well as settings such as private homes, streets, brothels and places of entertainment, where children are engaged in forms of child labour. The terms therefore cover a broad range of exploitation or exploitative activities involving children – including criminal acts such as drug trafficking. Referring to such situations as 'workplaces'
or 'work situations' does not make them legitimate: they remain activities or situations that must be prevented and eliminated.
Despite the existence of various studies on workplace violence against children, data on the incidence of such violence – especially violence directed against girls in particular – is very difficult to collect and therefore remains scarce. For example, in the context of its ongoing Study on Violence against Children, the UN carried out a pilot study to examine the possibility of gathering quantitative information on violence against children, particularly at work,2 but the resulting data was too heterogeneous to be used to calculate global estimates. Reporting is rarely uniform either: children are more likely to report more severe forms of violence than less severe ones. In other words, the available information is only a very small tip of an enormous iceberg – making it very difficult to estimate the true size of the problem.

Q: Changing UISwitch width and height I am trying to change the default height and width of a UISwitch element in iOS, but unsuccessfully.
Can you change the default height and width of a UISwitch element?
Should the element be created programmatically?

A: I tested the theory and it appears that you can use a scale transform to increase the size of the UISwitch
UISwitch *aSwitch = [[UISwitch alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(120, 120, 51, 31)];
aSwitch.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(2.0, 2.0);
[self.view addSubview:aSwitch];

A: Swift 4
@IBOutlet weak var switchDemo: UISwitch!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
   switchDemo.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: 0.75, y: 0.75)
}

A: Swift 5:
import UIKit

extension UISwitch {

    func set(width: CGFloat, height: CGFloat) {

        let standardHeight: CGFloat = 31
        let standardWidth: CGFloat = 51

        let heightRatio = height / standardHeight
        let widthRatio = width / standardWidth

        transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: widthRatio, y: heightRatio)
    }
}

A: import UIKit

extension UISwitch {

    static let standardHeight: CGFloat = 31
    static let standardWidth: CGFloat = 51

    @IBInspectable var width: CGFloat {
        set {
            set(width: newValue, height: height)
        }
        get {
            frame.width
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable var height: CGFloat {
        set {
            set(width: width, height: newValue)
        }
        get {
            frame.height
        }
    }

    func set(width: CGFloat, height: CGFloat) {

        let heightRatio = height / UISwitch.standardHeight
        let widthRatio = width / UISwitch.standardWidth

        transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: widthRatio, y: heightRatio)
    }
}

A: Not possible. A UISwitch has a locked intrinsic height of 51 x 31 .
You can force constraints on the switch at design time in the xib...

but come runtime it will snap back to its intrinsic size.
You can supply another image via the .onImage / .offImage properties but again from the docs.

The size of this image must be less than or equal to 77 points wide
  and 27 points tall. If you specify larger images, the edges may be
  clipped.

You are going to have to bake your own custom one if you want another size.

A: here is a nice UISwitch subclass that i wrote for this purpose, its also IBDesignable so you can control it from your Storyboard / xib
@IBDesignable class BigSwitch: UISwitch {

    @IBInspectable var scale : CGFloat = 1{
        didSet{
            setup()
        }
    }

    //from storyboard
    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        setup()
    }
    //from code
    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        setup()
    }

    private func setup(){
        self.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: scale, y: scale)
    }

    override func prepareForInterfaceBuilder() {
        setup()
        super.prepareForInterfaceBuilder()
    }

}

A: Even if it's possible to make a UISwitch smaller, this would negatively effect the user experience. Apple's Human Interface Guidelines recommend a minimum size of 44 points for touch targets.

Provide ample touch targets for interactive elements. Try to maintain a minimum tappable area of 44pt x 44pt for all controls

By scaling this to smaller than the standard size, it will become more difficult for users to tap, and also introduce accessibility concerns. Please consider users with less than perfect vision or motor control before making UI elements small.
Finally, here's an excerpt from a great article about touch target sizes illustrating what can happen when controls are too small.

Interviewer — "I noticed, you had some trouble submitting your email address on this screen, can you tell me how that felt?"
User — "Oh yeah, I'm not very good at technology."
Interviewer — "What do you think was causing you to struggle at that point?"
User — "The buttons were hard to tap, and I just kept stuffing it up."

Without an opening being created for her to splash the【Curse dispelling potion】over to Yurie-san, Elena was in dire stress too.
I have to greatly avoid the tentacle attack more than necessary at any cost.
This is the courage to take another step!!
I resolutely took a step forward toward the incoming bunch of tentacles.
I put the katana back into the inventory and slipped under the bunch of tentacles.
And then, I hold the bunch of tentacles with both hands.
As I've said so, what important part!?
and splashed it over to Yurie-san's face!
Yurie-san was surprised at the facial-cumshot and pulled the tentacles back in her skirt.
I was dodged by Elena.
it had become sticky with the liquid that smells like a rotten cheese.
It can't be helped, let's put off hugging Elena for later.
When such a thing happened, Yurie-san began to suffer.
When I looked carefully, a black smoke shrouded from her face together with the sound of something melting and sizzling.
After Yurie-san writhe for a while, she collapsed and stopped moving.
Yurie-san's mask came off and fell down on the floor.
When I used【Appraisal】, Yurie-san's『curse』had disappeared.
Elena who heard my words quickly rushed up to Yurie-san.
Yurie-san seems to have expended magic power, and just asleep.
and took her to Elena's room in a princess carry.
There was a new bed placed in Elena's room.
The King probably prepared a new bed for Elena when she comes back.
When I was thinking who it was, the King willfully barged into Elena's room.
Since Elena objected suddenly, the King was surprised.
「This Yurie-san is an important friend of mine!
She was manipulated by the devil-kin!
The King flinches at the so angry look of Elena.
Oops, I forgot the other woman.
Sigh, the king wasn't helping~.
When I came back to the audience room, the woman with a shield was still unconscious.
I endured the sticky bad smell and performed a physical check-up on the woman.
When I took off the woman's hood, she has two horns as expected.
She's a devil-kin after all.
She had【Magic stone of confusion inducement】,【Magic stone of confusion erasure】, and【Magic stone of suicide】in her person.
│One can induce confusion to a person.
│It's necessary to draw near during the inducement.
│completely obliterating the body, and one's belongings.
These are nothing but dangerous magic stones.
1. Act together, and manipulate Yurie-san.
2. If the strategy fails, kill Yurie-san.
3. Then she will commit suicide, destroying the evidence.
Such a flow was my hypothesis.
│but can't block physical attacks.
and tied the hands of the devil-kin woman behind her back.
Then, Lyle Gewalt entered while gasping for breath.
「If it isn't Lyle Gewalt.
And, as you can see, I caught this devil-kin as well.
「Lela was worried, you know.
I was able to save the Royal Capital somehow.
And, got back Yurie-san as well.
The rest, I'll finish the battle in the other towns and return to Japan.
I whipped my tired body and stood up.
 Konbu maki is a seaweed roll. Konbu is the large, thick seaweed that is sold dry, and also a play on words with "yorokobu" meaning "be happy" so people eat konbu maki over the new year's for good luck.

I am often asked my thoughts about design in the Tahoe-Truckee area and I thought it would be fun to explore the trends that are blending Tahoe style with contemporary for "Mountain Modern" feel.
We have all heard the saying, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder," and this most definitely applies to architecture and design. It all comes down to the emotions and feelings you have inside of a property. These feelings and moods can change with the seasons. A contemporary home may feel airy and bright with the expansive walls of windows that open to bring the outdoors inside to blend the living spaces in the summertime. On the other hand, a rustic mountain lodge will feel warm and cozy with the divided light windows, floor to ceiling granite fireplace and large exposed timbers and beams to warm up the environment and mood on a cold snowy winters day. Both of these styles are very appealing to consumers, and it all comes down to personal preference.
What I have found very appealing is a combination of the two designs creating this "mountain modern" feel. These recent design trends have seamlessly blended sleek modern lines with the traditional rustic warmth of Tahoe style. The blend is accomplished through utilization of an eclectic variety of materials including steel, wood and stone for both interior and exterior applications. The use of large window walls that merge the outdoor forest and mountain views with the interior of the home adds to the typical Tahoe feel of the home. Your personal architectural design style can come to life with the use of a myriad of colors and textures for interior furnishings that will result in the perfect look and feel for your mountain retreat or full time residence.
On the inside you will find wood ceilings Alder cabinets and oil finished distressed White Oak floors to warm up the glass and modern elements of design.
On the interior you will find modern finishes such as Lyptus cabinets and Leathered Quartzite countertops mixed with wood and stone that compliment each other well to provide a warm yet eclectic feel for the modern consumer.
It is a fascinating time in Truckee – Tahoe right now to watch all of the modern architecture and design elements being put to use by many talented architects and builders. If you have any questions on these homes or want to give feedback with your thoughts on trends and designs, fell free to reach out to sjones@tahoemountainrealty.com.

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of English reading and English writing self-efficacy for learning English as a foreign language of Grade 7 students according to their Academic Program at Saint Dominic School, Bangkok. There were 181 students studying English as a foreign language, consisting of 53 students from Academic Program 1, 64 students from Academic Program 2, 32 students from Academic Program 3, and 32 students from Academic Program 4, in Grade 7 at Saint Dominic School, Bangkok, in the academic year 2018. This study followed a quantitative research methodology employing a questionnaire developed by Henk and Melnick (1992, 1996) composing of two parts: the Reader SelfPerception Scale used to address the level of English reading self-efficacy, and the Writer Self-Perception Scale used to address the level of English writing self-efficacy. There were three main elements included in the study: the level of English reading self-efficacy, the level of English writing self-efficacy, and the difference among Academic Program. In this study, the self-efficacy focused on English reading and English writing for learning English as a foreign language. The study found that Grade 7 students among Academic Program had high level of English reading self-efficacy, and average level of English writing self-efficacy. Furthermore, there was a significant difference both in English reading and in English writing self-efficacy among Academic Program. The study concludes with recommendations for practice and for future research.

The purpose of this study was to determine if students' mathematics selfefficacy could be increased and their mathematics anxiety could be reduced by adding supplemental mathematics practice using the internet-based website Khan Academy to increase mastery experiences in solving mathematics problems. The study focused on 156 Grades 10-12 students at Thai Christian School in Bangkok. A research experiment was conducted during the course of the second semester of the 2016 school year based on Bandura (1977) sources of self-efficacy (mastery experience, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, psychological factors). During the experiment, the students received weekly supplemental mathematics practice by homework recommendations from the researcher sent using the Khan Academy website. A comparison was made between the students' mathematics self-efficacy and mathematics anxiety before and after the research experiment and after the research experiment. The research included four objectives. Objectives one and two were to determine students' mathematics self-efficacy levels and mathematics anxiety levels at the beginning and end of the research experiment. Objectives three and four were to determine if a significant increase in mathematics self-efficacy and a significant reduction in mathematics anxiety could be achieved through the addition of supplemental mathematics exercises using the mathematics e-learning website Khan Academy. The major findings in this research were that the average students' mathematics self-efficacy increased, and the average students' mathematics anxiety was reduced in all three-program emphasis (mathematics science, mathematicsEnglish, English-Chinese). Overall Mathematics self-efficacy increased significantly for the entire sample and mathematics anxiety reduced significantly for the entire sample.
A comparative study of matriculation students' motivation for learning mathematics according to gender in five Burmese Migrant Learning Centers in Mae Sot, Thailand
(Digital Production Press, Assumption University, 2015) Lwin, Sandar ; Lynch, Richard
Among the several components of motivation for learning, the individual's sense of goal orientations, the impression and value of learning tasks, control of learning beliefs and perceptions of personal self-efficacy for learning are important components of the Social Cognitive Theory of Motivation for Learning, which provides the theoretical framework for this study. A number of studies have found that the gender gap in mathematics is highly correlated to perception of the culture of gender inequality in a society. The objectives of this study were to measure the levels of the matriculation students' motivation in learning mathematics and to investigate if there was any difference according to gender in five Burmese Migrant Learning Centers in Mae Sot. One hundred seven students (51 male and 56 female), aged 15-29 years, participated in the survey. The results of this study showed that the differences between genders on average motivation in learning mathematics were small among the migrant learning centers' matriculation students. However, female students had a lower level in overall motivation, higher motivation in control of learning beliefs and lower motivation in the factor of perceived self-efficacy. The reasons for this are likely culturally rooted and sustained. Traditionally, in Burmese culture, boys are regarded and treated as being superior to girls. This cultural perspective most likely affects the girls' motivation and self-confidence in their learning. The article concludes with recommendations for practice and for future research.

A comparative study on self-efficacy for performing learning inquiry tasks and attitudes toward learning chemistry through inquiry-based laboratories in Grades9-12 students at Concordian International School, Thailand
(Digital Production Press, Assumption University, 2018) Pawinee Narueponjirakoon ; Suwattana Eamoraphan
The purpose of conducting this research was to determine students' self-efficacy as well as attitudes toward learning chemistry of middle and high school students before and after learned inquiry-based laboratories. The inquiry-based laboratory offered many benefits to students without difficulties of planning and performing laboratory for science classes. The inquiry-based laboratory process was comprised of developing a hypothesis, designing an experiment, and interpreting data. The attitudes toward learning chemistry were favorable views about laboratory skills, lectures, and real-world applications of the students. The students' self-efficacy and attitudes toward learning chemistry were collected through valid and reliable survey called Student Perceptions in Chemistry Evaluation (SPiCE) created by Winkelmann, Baloga, Marcinkowski, Giannoulis, Anquandah, and Cohen (2014). Pre- and post-evaluations were given to grades 9-12 students (n=48) after finishing the pre-lab session and post-lab session respective. Results indicated no response on students' self-efficacy and attitudes toward learning chemistry. Discussions of what factors might affect the results were presented along with recommendations for teachers and future researchers.

A correlational study of self-efficacy and perceived parental encouragement for learning English as a foreign language with English academic achievement of Batch 5 and Batch 6 students at level up academy, Loikaw Township, Kayah State, Myanmar
( 2020) Alexander ; Gonzalez, Orlando Rafael Gonzalez
The purpose of this quantitative study was to investigate if there was a significant relationship of self-efficacy and perceived parental encouragement for learning English as a foreign language with English academic achievement of Batch 5 and Batch 6 students at Level Up Academy, Loikaw Township, Kayah State, Myanmar. A population sample of 71 students from Batch 5 (34 students) and Batch 6 (37 students), enrolled during the academic year 2017-2018, was chosen for this study. A 32-item questionnaire was used to measure the levels of self-efficacy for learning EFL, including its four subscales (listening efficacy, speaking efficacy, reading efficacy and writing efficacy); an 8-item questionnaire was used to measure perceived parental encouragement for learning EFL; and the levels of English academic achievement were determined using the English subject's final test. After data collection was done, descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations) and a statistical hypothesis testing (correlational analysis using Pearson's product moment correlation and multiple correlation coefficient) were carried out to address the research objectives and hypotheses of this study. The research findings indicated that the levels of self-efficacy for learning EFL of both Batch 5 and Batch 6 students were slightly high. It was also found that the level of perceived parental encouragement of Batch 5 students was slightly high, while that of Batch 6 students was moderately high. The English subject's final test revealed that Batch 5 and Batch 6 students had good English academic achievement. Correlational analysis using Pearson's product moment correlation suggested that there was a strong, significant and positive relationship of self-efficacy for learning EFL with English academic achievement of Batch 5 and Batch 6 students. However, there was not significant relationship of perceived parental encouragement for learning EFL with English academic achievement of Batch 5 and Batch 6 students. The four subscales of self-efficacy for learning EFL (listening, speaking, reading and writing efficacy) were also strongly, positively and significantly correlated with English academic achievement of Batch 5 and Batch 6 student Level Up Academy, Loikaw Township, Kayah State, Myanmar.

Designing an organization development model for co-creating inclusive organizations
(Bangkok : Assumption University Press, 2022) Fernando, Maria Socorro C. L.
The aim of this research was to design an organization development model for co-creating inclusive organizations. Data was collected using an online structured questionnaire and interview protocol. The nine informants and 71 respondents worked at various job positions with multi-national companies based in Thailand. The 71 respondents were selected using non-probability random sampling, while purposive sampling was used to identify the nine informants. The quantitative data analysis utilized Pearson Correlation, Paired Sample T-test, and Priority Needs Index Modified (PNI mod), while the qualitative data analysis of the interview data utilized content analysis. The quantitative findings revealed significant relationships between the variables (p < 0.01). Results of the paired sample statistics revealed that only the paired samples of workplace inclusion and psychological safety obtained a significant mean difference, with significance values of .005 and .001, respectively, while the order of priority needs of the constructs showed psychological safety, workplace inclusion, perceived organizational support, innovation in the workplace, and self-efficacy, to have the respective order of priority. The qualitative data analysis resulted in three themes consisting of diversity, inclusive culture, and inclusive management. The research findings were used to design the model entitled "Co-creative Organization Inclusion" with three components, namely Component 1: Co-creative organization inclusion through representation that leverages individual & team potential; Component 2: Co-creative organizational inclusion by top-management championing representation; and Component 3: Co-creative organization inclusion through a supportive and collaborative culture.

eLearning Adoption and eLearning Satisfaction of Learners: A case study of Management Program in a University of Thailand
( 2018-01-25) John, Varughese Kizhakkacharuvil ; Duangta Duangekanong
This study investigates eLearning mode of learning in Master of Science in Management (MSM) program at a University in Thailand. The School has adopted the open source software 'MOODLE' for its engine of Learning Management System (LMS) by customizing it with video and interactive features, since its inception in 2004. This study is based on the basic proposition that Learners' adoption of e-learning dependent on its effectiveness and usefulness, and their perceived satisfaction. The theoretical foundation of the study has been one of the empirically verified models developed by Shu- Sheng Liaw (2008), labelled as 'Three-Tier Technology Use Model' (3-TUM). It consisted of three interlinked tiers in a sequential order, viz., 'the individual characteristics and/or system quality tier' (1st tier), 'the affective and/or cognitive tier' (2nd tier), and 'the behavioral intention tier' (3rd tier). The model has integrated motivation, the self-cognitive theory (SCT), the theory of planned behavior (TPB), and the technology acceptance model (TAM). In this study the researcher has used questionnaire survey method where the sample units are learners who had undergone the program during the period 2007 to 2017 and a total of 270 cases were analyzed and the proposed model was modified and tested through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The study concludes that eLearning system quality and perceived self-efficacy of the learners are critical factors determining the behavioral intention to use eLearning as a mode of learning in higher education of Thailand. The study supports certain findings of Liaw (2008) that the considerations for effective eLearning system are Learner's self-efficacy, Multi-media formats, and the Interaction environment.

EMPOWERING YOUTH: PROMOTING SUBJECTIVE WELL-BEING AMONG THAI ADOLESCENTS OF LOW SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS THROUGH POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY INTERVENTION
(Digital Production Press, Assumption University, 2018) Permsit Lamprasitipon ; Blauw, Jon
This quiz-experimental study examined the effectiveness of a 10-hour workshop-based intervention program that incorporated positive psychology strategies. Participants in the study included 72 Thai adolescents age 14 to 17 years with low socioeconomic status from four Fai-Fah centers, two of which were randomly assigned to one of two experimental conditions: (1) the Positive Empowerment for Adolescents (PEA) group or (2) the expressive writing and reading control group. PEA is a series of positive psychology interventions including character strength enhancement, goal setting, problem solving skills, and gratitude journaling and letter writing. Data were collected on participants at pre-and-post intervention including self-report measures of life satisfaction, positive affect ratio, self-efficacy, and perceived social support, by using Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (BMLSS), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule for Children (PANAS-C), Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Children (SEQ-C), and Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale (CASSS) respectively. The results suggested that the PEA intervention program had a significant effect on the level of self-efficacy and perceived social support, although there were no significant effects on positive affect ratio. Surprisingly, the control group subjects showed a significantly higher level of life satisfaction than the experimental group. Integration of the expressive writing and reading found to be effective at raising life satisfaction from the control group, as well as elements of traditional Thai cultural practices such as meditation are recommended to help strengthen the PEA intervention program.

Patrabul Puttahraksa ; Fongcum Tilokskulchai ; Yajai Sitthimongkol ; Tassanee Prasopkittikul ; Dusit Liknapichitkul
This study was a Quasi-experimental pretest-posttest non-equivalent comparison group design, aimed to evaluate the effects of the empowerment program for caregivers of autistic children. The participants were 74 caregivers who took care of 2-5 years old autistic children at the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Institute, Rajanakarin. After being enrolled into the study, the participants were matched by caregivers' and children's gender and assigned to the experimental group (37 participants) or the control group (37 participants).The experimental group completed the 5-day empowerment program which was administered by the researcher whereas the control group received only the routine treatment program. The empowerment program was composed of 4 steps: discovering reality, critical reflection, taking charge and holding on through group process. The data was gathered at the pre-test and at the 4th, 8th and 12th week after the intervention program.The findings revealed that the experimental group had statistically significantly higher scores on perceived self-efficacy in care of autistic children than the control group (p < .001) and there was a statistically significant difference between the 4th and 12th weeks (p < .05).The evidence from this study indicated that this program had effect on promoting perceived self-efficacy in autistic child care. The application of this program is suggested for all caregivers of 2-5 years old autistic children.
Exploring behavioral intention towards hybrid education of undergraduate students in public University in Chongqing, China
(Bangkok : Assumption University Press, 2022) Luo, Lai ; Soonthorn Pibulcharoensit ; Krisana Kitcharoen ; Feng, Deping
Purpose: This study investigates key factors influencing behavioral intention to use hybrid education of undergraduate students in Arts and Design of three universities in Chongqing, China. Perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, performance expectancy, self-efficacy, effort expectancy, social influence, and behavioral intention were associated in a conceptual framework. Research design, data, and methods: The researchers used a quantitative approach for survey distribution to 500 participants. The sampling techniques involve judgmental, quota and convenience sampling. Item Objective Congruence (IOC) Index and Cronbach's Alpha reliability test were approved prior to the data collection. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Model (SEM) were used to test models' goodness of fit, validity, and reliability. Results: Perceived usefulness has the strongest significant impact on behavioral intention, followed by perceived ease of use, self-efficacy, effort expectancy, and social influence. Furthermore, perceived ease of use strongly and significantly impacts perceived usefulness. In contrary, the relationship between performance expectancy and behavioral intention was not supported. Conclusion: Hybrid education has gained the most concern in the system adoption for teaching and learning effectiveness. Therefore, educational stakeholders should identify the main contributors to achieve the hybrid learning implementation and increase student engagement and learning performance.


These days, it seems like every week a new report is published sounding the alarm of a rapidly aging population across the United States and a shortage of workers prepared to care for this barreling silver tsunami. So much of the media coverage and research is focused on the paraprofessional workforce.
However, the Home Care Alliance member surveys indicate that the problem is broader than just a shortage of home health aides. The availability of a trained nursing workforce to meet a growing home-based health care delivery system is also emerging as an issue. Compounding challenges are impacting our ability as an industry to attract nursing students into home and community-based settings after nursing school. That is why, on June 7th the Home Care Alliance of Massachusetts and Northeastern's School of Nursing are hosting a symposium on the very topic of building a home care nursing workforce at Northeastern University from 9AM – 3PM.
The event, titled: Nursing Call to Action: Building a Nursing Workforce to Deliver Complex Care at Home, will bring together more than 25 nursing schools and 25 home health providers for a day-long session. The program will kick-start a dialogue brainstorming new approaches for preparing and exposing Massachusetts nursing students for an increasingly intensive health delivery system in the home.
If you would like more information on this event, please reach out to Jake Krilovich. Please note: There is limited space for this event!
In celebrating National Nurses Week (May 6-12), we are, of course, taking the time to appreciate and recognize the daily contribution that nurses make to improving patients' lives, but we are also focused on improving and advancing nursing as a profession – this week, and every week.
The theme of 2016 National Nurses Week is "A Culture of Safety – It Starts with YOU!" With that in mind, the American Nurses Association (ANA) is asking nurses to take personal responsibility in helping make their workplaces safer to enhance patient care and nurses' health and well-being. We invite home health agencies to visit NursingWorld.org to view resources on how you can celebrate and recognize your nurses.
We are also pleased to carry out that vision in our advocacy. At the national level, ANA supports the Home Health Planning Improvement Act, which would allow Advanced Practice Nurses – including nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists and certified nurse midwives – to sign home health plans of care and certify Medicare patients for the home health benefit.
While APRNs satisfy Medicaid's face-to-face requirement needed before home health can be authorized, APRNs are prohibited from signing home health plans of care and certifying Medicare patients for the home health benefit. This creates unnecessary delays and places impediments between an individual and the in-home care that they prefer and medically deserve.
At the state level, ANA-Massachusetts has long been a supporter of An Act Relative to Home Health and Hospice Aides, better known to some as the "Nurse Delegation" bill. It would allow, but not mandate, that a nurse may delegate certain medication administration tasks to a trained and certified home health or hospice aide.
Massachusetts is behind 36 other states that allow some type of delegation. If we are to care for an aging population, reduce costs by strengthening healthcare in the home and create efficiencies in our healthcare workforce, we need to elevate nurses to practice at the top of their license and elevate the aides that are critical team members.
On October 20th, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released stricter guidance on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) recommended for healthcare workers treating patients with the Ebola virus.
All workers are supervised by a trained monitor who watches each worker putting PPE on and taking it off.
These principles and other guidance listed on the new advisory appear to be geared towards healthcare facilities and are based on lessons learned from those hospitals and clinics that have treated Ebola cases in the US thus far, including Emory University Hospital, Nebraska Medical Center and National Institutes of Health Clinical Center.
Also on October 20th, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) and Boston Public Health Commission released updated clinical guidance on sending in patient specimens for laboratory testing for suspected Ebola cases. According to DPH, prior to sending a sample, the facility should consult the MDPH Hinton State Laboratory Institute for specimen collection, handling, packaging and transport advice via the 24/7 lab number (617-590-6390).
More information will be shared as it becomes available.
The Home Care Alliance is proud to join associations and medical providers from across the state and country in celebrating National Nurses Week.
Every year on May 6-12, National Nurses Week raises awareness of the value of nursing and the hard work performed everyday by nurses in all health care settings. In particular, the Home Care Alliance thanks the nurses working in home health care – along with the therapists, social workers, aides and other staff that are part of the care team with nurses – to ensure that people can remain at home for as long as possible.
Recently, the Home Care Alliance held the annual Home Care Innovations Showcase and Star Awards where the association recognized Patricia Darling from the Visiting Nurse Association of Boston and Shirley Lucier of VNA Care Network with HCA's "Clinician of the Year" awards. Many of the Innovation Awards to home health agencies recognized forward-thinking practices or policies that involved nurses as a vital component.
For those looking to join in recognizing nurses, the American Nurses Association hosts a special National Nurses Week website with resources and reports on the nursing profession and how to celebrate.

More than likely, the reason why Pellegrini chose to keep Kidd on staff is because of his experience within the Premier League. In any profession, having someone who is familiar with every aspect of the workplace can be invaluable to a new boss. Kidd provides this to Pellegrini, as well as an understanding of the players and day to day operations at Manchester City.
When arriving at a club, some new managers will bring their previous assistant coaches with them. Paul Clement (Real Madrid) and Silvino Louro (Chelsea) would be examples of this practice.
Previously, Clement worked under Ancelotti for two seasons at Chelsea. After Ancelotti split from Chelsea, Clement spent time at Blackburn before rejoining him at Paris Saint-Germain. When Real Madrid was able to acquire Ancelotti this summer, Clement was retained by the Italian-born coach.
The story of Clement's rise into coaching is one of the more interesting ones you'll ever hear. He never played professional football and worked as a PE teacher from 1995-2000. While working as a teacher, he studied for his coaching badges while assisting Chelsea's 'Football in the Community' program. He was eventually picked out by former Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink to become a member of his backroom staff. But it was when Ancelotti took over at the club that Clement was made an assistant. And the timing couldn't have been any better for him. Chelsea finished that season as Premier League and FA Cup winners.
Louro is one of the best goalkeeping coaches in football. He has worked under José Mourinho at Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and again at Chelsea. Petr Cech credits Louro with helping him adapt to the physical nature of English football. Three of his previous goalkeepers have been honored as UEFA's Best Goalkeeper: Baía (Porto), Cech, and Júlio César (Inter Milan).
These men bring a level of comfort to Ancelotti and Mourinho's staffs. They have spent years working with each other and there is a tremendous value in that understanding. A manager doesn't have to spend additional time explaining his every thought and action. He knows that individuals, such as these, will be able to do what he wants and relate his thoughts appropriately to the team. It saves time having to start from "square one" with a brand new staff member.
Probably the most notable managing partnership in the history of English football was the relationship between Brian Clough and Peter Taylor. The two worked side by side at Hartlepool, Derby County, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Nottingham Forest. Their footballing lives were well-documented in the book and movie, The Damned United.
