Building an Aotearoa New Zealand-wide Digital Curation Community of Practice

How do you build awareness and capability for digital curation knowledge and experience across a country? The National Library of New Zealand has a statutory role in supporting and advancing the work of Aotearoa New Zealand libraries to ensure documentary heritage and taonga is collected and preserved across the country’s memory system. This role includes supporting the collecting and curation of born-digital content. Aotearoa New Zealand’s Gallery Library Archive Museum (GLAM) sector is small but varied and diverse, so requires a flexible and adaptive plan to grow experience and capability in this area. This paper will describe the background research undertaken to gain a better understanding of the current environment, describe the development and delivery of pilot training in managing born-digital archival content, and outline our next steps. Driving this effort has been two foundational principles: 1) theory and practice are always in conversation with each other and practical hands-on experience is as important as theoretical knowledge and understanding; and 2) the work of growing capability should be done in a spirt of collaboration and partnership, meeting each other as equals and learning from each other

Does achieving the best practice tariff improve outcomes in hip fracture patients? An observational cohort study

Objectives: To determine if the introduction of the best practice tariff (BPT) has improved survival of the elderly hip fracture population, or if achieving BPT results in improved survival for an individual. Setting: A single university-affiliated teaching hospital. Participants: 2,541 patients aged over 60 admitted with a neck of femur fracture between 2008 and 2010 and from 2012 to 2014 were included, to create two cohorts of patients, before and after the introduction of BPT. The post-BPT cohort was divided into two groups, those who achieved the criteria and those who did not. Primary and Secondary Outcome Measures: Primary outcomes of interest were differences in mortality across cohorts. Secondary analysis was performed to identify associations between individual BPT criteria and mortality. Results: The introduction of BPT did not significantly alter overall 30-mortality in the hip fracture population (8.3% pre-BPT vs 10.0% post-BPT; p = 0.128). Neither was there a significant reduction in length of stay (15 days (IQR 9-21) pre-BPT vs 14 days (IQR 11-22); p=0.236). However, the introduction of BPT was associated with a reduction in the time from admission to theatre (median 44hours pre-BPT (IQR 24-44) vs 23hours post-BPT (IQR 17-30); p<0.005). 30-day mortality in those who achieved BPT was significantly lower (6.0% vs 21.0% in those who did not achieve-BPT; p < 0.005). There was a survival benefit at one year for those who achieved BPT (28.6% vs 42.0% did not achieve-BPT; p<0.005). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that of the BPT criteria, AMT monitoring and expedited surgery were the only BPT criteria that significantly influenced survival. Conclusion: The introduction of the BPT has not led to a demonstrable improvement in outcomes at organisational level, though other factors may have confounded any benefits. However, patients where BPT criteria are met appear to have improved outcomes

Investigating Disparities in High School Athletes’ Attitude Toward Concussion and Predictors of Continuing Play

Objective: Studies related to attitudes of concussion have been growing in athletic populations. While racial and socioeconomic disparities exist in knowledge and awareness of concussion, it remains unclear the effect of disparities on attitudes of concussion and reporting behaviors. The purpose of this study was to examine racial and socioeconomic disparities on attitudes towards concussion and the decision to remain in play with a suspected concussion. Design: This cross-sectional study included 577 athletes between the ages of 13-19 (16.0 ± 1.2) years from 14 high schools. Participants completed a knowledge and attitudes instrument assessing general attitudes of concussion using 7 Likert-scale attitude questions followed by 2 additional questions assessing the decision to continue play while symptomatic. Differences in attitudes of concussion between race and socioeconomic school type were examined using independent t-tests. A multivariable linear regression model was utilized to determine which demographic factors were associated with athletes’ attitude scores. Multivariable logistic regression models were utilized to determine what demographic variables were associated with athletes’ continuation of play in a practice or a game. Results: Differences in attitude scores between race were observed, with black athletes demonstrating lower scores than white athletes (pp=.04) and sex (OR: 0.59, 95% CI [0.36,0.96], p=.03) were, with females less likely to remain in a practice than males. Further, race and socioeconomic school type were not significantly associated with remaining in a game; however, attitude (OR: 0.97, 95% CI [0.95,0.99], p=.01) and sex (OR: 0.56 95% CI [0.35,0.90], p=.02) were, with females less likely to remain in a game than males. Conclusions: Disparities exist between race and socioeconomic school type on attitude of concussion. Black athletes and athletes attending Title I high schools had poorer attitude scores compared to white athletes and athletes attending non-Title I schools. Race was significantly associated with lower concussion attitude scores. The poorer, yet moderate concussion attitude scores suggest concussion education efforts be concentrated towards closing the disparity gap. Further, addressing concussion attitudes would likely also help to shift athletes’ decisions to remain in a practice or game while symptomatic

Trastornos del aprendizaje hiperactividad

The purpose of this research is to know the causes of the student learning disorder hyperactivity disorder, also known as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), to promote integration in the student who suffers, where the main actor is the teacher who through talks or psychological workshops offered by the institution helps instill inclusive education for better academic and social development of the student, as well as provide proper attention to it. Sometimes the teacher finds it very difficult to work with such students, for their discipline deemed inappropriate and that is where the child is excluded, and therefore this is complicated their environment, making it difficult to concentrate in the work entrusted by his tutor and classroom tasks, for which the teacher must use adequate strategies and techniques to attract their attention and have the child interested in the given academic tasks. It is necessary for both the classroom and tasks the child to pay due attention to good school performance, since it is continuously expanding its instructional setting, the hyperactive child has an inexhaustible energy and teachers must know how to harness that energy, these children are very prominent in the area of technology, and increasingly need to explore more, go at a pace faster than a child who does not suffer hyperactivity therefore has been desirable to use specific methods and techniques (observation, interview, survey) to help us understand the subject of investigation and in turn, strengthen the Teaching Learning Process (TLP) for a process without discrimination because a good strategy will make the child sitting motivated, attracted and interested in what happens in their environment, its educational performance will be much more productive and profitable.El propósito de esta investigación es conocer las causas del trastorno de hiperactividad del trastorno de aprendizaje del estudiante, también conocido como Trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad (TDAH), para promover la integración en el estudiante que sufre, donde el actor principal es el maestro que a través de charlas o los talleres ofrecidos por la institución ayudan a inculcar la educación inclusiva para un mejor desarrollo académico y social del estudiante, así como a prestarle la debida atención.Universidad Técnica de Cotopax
