Documenting the experiences of health workers expected to implement guidelines during an intervention study in Kenyan hospitals.
Nzinga J., Mbindyo P., Mbaabu L., Warira A., English M.
BACKGROUND: Although considerable efforts are directed at developing international guidelines to improve clinical management in low-income settings they appear to influence practice rarely. This study aimed to explore barriers to guideline implementation in the early phase of an intervention study in four district hospitals in Kenya. METHODS: We developed a simple interview guide based on a simple characterisation of the intervention informed by review of major theories on barriers to uptake of guidelines. In-depth interviews, non-participatory observation, and informal discussions were then used to explore perceived barriers to guideline introduction and general improvements in paediatric and newborn care. Data were collected four to five months after in-service training in the hospitals. Data were transcribed, themes explored, and revised in two rounds of coding and analysis using NVivo 7 software, subjected to a layered analysis, reviewed, and revised after discussion with four hospital staff who acted as within-hospital facilitators. RESULTS: A total of 29 health workers were interviewed. Ten major themes preventing guideline uptake were identified: incomplete training coverage; inadequacies in local standard setting and leadership; lack of recognition and appreciation of good work; poor communication and teamwork; organizational constraints and limited resources; counterproductive health worker norms; absence of perceived benefits linked to adoption of new practices; difficulties accepting change; lack of motivation; and conflicting attitudes and beliefs. CONCLUSION: While the barriers identified are broadly similar in theme to those reported from high-income settings, their specific nature often differs. For example, at an institutional level there is an almost complete lack of systems to introduce or reinforce guidelines, poor teamwork across different cadres of health worker, and failure to confront poor practice. At an individual level, lack of interest in the evidence supporting guidelines, feelings that they erode professionalism, and expectations that people should be paid to change practice threaten successful implementation.

The goal of Taos Land Trust's Enchanted Circle Trails and Park Master Plan is to connect people to the North Central New Mexico landscape through a trails, parks and open space system that offers health, recreation, alternative transportation and resilient economic benefits to the community.
Taos County is an extraordinary place. People travel from all over the world to learn about our region's unique history and vibrant culture, mountain bike and ski our mountains, eat at our restaurants, and paint our landscapes. Those of us lucky enough to call this place home deeply understand the connections among the land, water, and people unique to this region.
Over the years, we have watched our towns sprawl and our lifestyles move increasingly away from the land. Our public spaces have become separated and segmented by high-speed roads, traffic congestion, and lack of pedestrian- and bike-friendly routes. Reaching forest trailheads, schools, parks, hospitals, and even bus stops, is not easy without a car. As a result, our pocketbooks, mental well-being, and physical health suffer. Trails and parks for all are desperately needed in our community, and this year Taos Land Trust is embarking on a community-driven journey that will inform our work to plan and develop parks and trails for local residents and visitors, children and elders, and recreationists and commuters.
Taos Land Trust has worked over the past 27 years to protect more than 25,000 acres of lush farmland, wetlands and forests, and wildlife habitat. While the land trust has always been committed to protecting our community's breathtaking natural and working landscapes, this year we are working toward an Enchanted Circle Trails and Parks Master Plan. Our vision is a region of that thrives economically and environmentally, knit together with parks and trails where our minds can rest and our bodies can play.
The Taos Land Trust's Enchanted Circle Trails and Parks Master Plan will depend on a series of meetings with locals who represent a spectrum of parks and trails needs. In order to ensure that the time and energy put forth by our community to develop this plan is fruitful, we are working closely with the Del Norte Trails Coalition which has been a champion of recreational trails in the region, and the Trust for Public Land's Conceptual Trail Plan process, which has the distinct ability to incorporate local input into state-of-the-art mapping software to illustrate parks and trails that reflect our community's identity.
The Trust for Public Land is a nationally acclaimed non-profit organization that has extensive experience assisting communities in planning meaningful parks and trails. Together, and with the support of our friends and neighbors, we seek to implement parks and trails that connect our community to the land and each other.
Implementation of Taos Land Trust's Trails and Parks Master Plan for the Enchanted Circle Region will be transparent. Once the hard work of developing the Master Plan has been completed, the information and maps will be available as a community resource for local utilization by individuals, businesses, organizations and government agencies, as well as tourists with an interest in a trails and parks system.
We are thrilled to begin the work of connecting our community and would love your input. If you are interested in sharing your insights, concerns and vision, please use call our office at 575.751.3138 or fill out our short contact form and we will get in touch with you.

All the anecdotal evidence has been confirmed. As Private Fraser says in Dad's Army "We're all doomed!"
However, like all cataclysmic events in nature, business or otherwise, the Darwinian "survival of the fittest" kicks in and those deemed ready to adapt and change to meet the new world will survive.

Few cases of postoperative arterioportal fistula (APF) have been documented. APF after hepatectomy is a very rare surgery-related complication.
A 62-year-old man was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma in segments 5 and 8, respectively. Anterior segmentectomy was performed as a curative surgery. Each branch of the hepatic artery, portal vein, and biliary duct for the anterior segment was ligated together as the Glissonean bundle. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 14. Three months later, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging showed an arterioportal fistula and portal vein aneurysm. Surprisingly, the patient did not have subtle symptoms. Although a perfect angiographic evaluation could not be ensured, we performed angiography with subsequent interventional radiology to avoid sudden rupture. Arteriography was immediately performed to create a portogram via the APF from the stump of the anterior hepatic artery, and portography clearly revealed hepatofugal portal vein flow. Portography also showed that the stump of the anterior portal vein had developed a 40-mm-diameter portal vein aneurysm. Selective embolization of the anterior hepatic artery was accomplished in the whole length of the stump of the anterior hepatic artery, and abnormal blood flow through the APF was drastically reduced. The portal vein aneurysm disappeared, and portal flow was normalized. Dynamic computed tomography after embolization clearly demonstrated perfect interruption of the APF. The patient maintained good health thereafter.
Post-hepatectomy APFs are very rare, and some appear to be cryptogenic. Our thought-provoking case may help to provide a possible explanation of the causes of post-hepatectomy APF.
Arterioportal fistula (APF) is a rare condition, and some APFs appear to be cryptogenic. Few cases of postoperative APF have been documented, and APF after hepatectomy is a very rare surgery-related complication. We herein presented a thought-provoking case of surgery-related APF after hepatectomy. Our case may be informative with respect to explaining the possible causes of APF after hepatectomy.
An arterioportal fistula (APF) or shunt is a rare condition. An APF causes portal hypertension  and sometimes results in life-threatening events (e.g., liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy, and variceal bleeding) [2–4] requiring surgical treatment, interventional radiology (IVR), and endovascular therapy [2, 5]. The known etiologies of APF include trauma, iatrogenic causes (e.g., biliary drainage, percutaneous biopsy, and radiofrequency ablation), congenital disease, malignant tumors, and splanchnic artery aneurysm rupture [1–4, 6–8].
Major hepatectomy is currently a feasible and safe therapeutic option for liver disease [9, 10], although some postoperative complications are intractable (e.g., biliary leakage, portal thrombosis, and refractory ascites) [11–13]. Fatal complications have been reported, such as liver failure, secondary portal hypertension, and abnormal hemostasis [13, 14], and massive bleeding from varices or aneurysms will affect the postoperative course after hepatectomy [13, 15].
APF is a very rare complication after hepatectomy , although cases of APF after gastrectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy have been documented [17, 18]. To the best of our knowledge, only one case of APF after hepatectomy has been reported . We herein report a thought-provoking case of APF after anterior segmentectomy. We also discuss a possible explanation for the cause of APF in this case.
A 62-year-old man with chronic hepatitis C was referred by his physician to our hospital for surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Imaging findings on enhanced computed tomography (CT) and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed two tumors located in segments 5 and 8, respectively (Figs. 1 and 2). Although the alpha-fetoprotein level was within the reference range, the serum level of prothrombin induced by the absence of vitamin K or antagonist-II was high (530 mAU/ml). After a preoperative evaluation based on a three-dimensional (3D) imaging study, anterior segmentectomy was performed. Each branch of the hepatic artery, portal vein, and biliary duct for the anterior segment were ligated together as the Glissonean bundle (so-called, fully simultaneous transection of the Glissonean pedicle [FSTG]) (Fig. 3). Perihilar FSTG involved a transfixation suture by using an absorbable thread. The tumor in segment 8 was in contact with the middle hepatic vein. However, this tumor was well-encapsulated, and the tumor and vein were easily dissectable. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful, and he was discharged on postoperative day 14.
Three months later, dynamic MRI was performed to check for intrahepatic recurrence, and no imaging findings of recurrence were observed. However, an arterioportal fistula and portal vein aneurysm were incidentally detected (Fig. 4). Layers of old and subacute hematomas were clearly observed, and these layers surrounded the aneurysm. Surprisingly, the patient did not have subtle symptoms and showed no episodes of pain, ascites, liver dysfunction, or other abnormalities. We suspected a pseudoaneurysm at that time. Although a perfect angiographic evaluation could not be ensured, IVR was needed to avoid sudden rupture and possible death. Therefore, we decided to attempt IVR after evaluation of the vessels on dynamic CT, and transcatheter arterial embolization was proposed thereafter.
First, angiography via the celiac artery was performed. Arteriography was subsequently used to create a portogram via this APF, and portography clearly revealed hepatofugal flow of the portal vein. Portography also showed that the stump of the anterior portal vein had developed a portal vein aneurysm (PVA) with a diameter of 40 mm (Fig. 5a). Selective catheterization of the common hepatic artery was then performed. This arteriography clearly demonstrated a fistula between the hepatic artery and portal vein (i.e., APF) at the stump of the anterior branches (Fig. 5b). Based on these angiography findings, we definitively diagnosed PVA due to an APF, not a pseudoaneurysm.
Next, an adequate length of APF to perform embolic therapy was confirmed to avoid any occlusion and disturbance at the bifurcation of the right hepatic artery (Fig. 5b). Selective embolization of the anterior hepatic artery was then accomplished by placing several titanium coils in the whole length of the stump of the anterior hepatic artery. Finally, the flow of blood through the APF was drastically reduced (Fig. 5c). Arteriography via the superior mesenteric artery showed a remarkable restoration of portal venous flow, and hepatopetal portal flow was clearly observed (Fig. 5d).
Complete closure of the APF could be estimated by additional expansion of the metallic coils over time after IVR. Dynamic CT and 3D images 3 days after embolization clearly demonstrated perfect interruption of the APF and disappearance of the PVA (Fig. 6).
Imaging studies and serum biomarkers showed no evidence of recurrence. At the time of this study, the patient was good in health and had been reintegrated into society.
Causes of APF include trauma, iatrogenic causes (e.g., biliary drainage, percutaneous biopsy, and radiofrequency ablation), congenital disease, malignant tumors, and splanchnic artery aneurysm rupture [1–4, 6–8]. Some APFs appear to be cryptogenic. Surgery-related APFs are rare, although cases of APF after gastrectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy have been reported [17, 18]. To the best of our knowledge, however, only one case of APF after hepatectomy has been documented, and this previous case occurred in a 3-month-old infant after right trisegmentectomy . The infant had been successfully treated by super-selective embolization using titanium coils. His artery, portal vein, and bile duct were ligated, respectively. This approach was distinct from our approach, FSTG.
A simple question arose in the present case: Is FSTG dangerous during hepatectomy? FSTG is currently a safe and reproducible hepatectomy technique because of its simplicity, and this technique has therefore become a standard method during major hepatectomy [9, 10]. In our institution, we also employ perihilar FSTG during major hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic tumors, and benign diseases. In the present case, we understood that it is difficult to discuss the mechanism of APF development. We considered that our case was an agnogenic APF and that a relation between perihilar FSTG and resultant APF was also unclear. Our procedures of perihilar FSTG involved a transfixation suture, and we here speculated that perihilar FSTG might have been a possible cause of the APF. We also speculated that other possible causes (e.g., technical error) were observed, and recognized that a responsible cause of our APF was still obscure. We had not experienced similar cases of APF after hepatectomy accompanied by FSTG, although we found no reports of FSTG-related APF.
Although our patient was asymptomatic, CT detected a small amount of ascites. APFs, especially those on the proximal side (e.g., intrahepatic or perihilar Glissonean pedicle), often result in refractory symptoms of portal hypertension (such as gastrointestinal bleeding, ascites, and diarrhea) . In the present case, a definitive diagnosis of APF was made only 3 months after hepatectomy, and we considered that the reason why the patient had no symptoms was the prompt diagnosis of APF followed by adequate IVR. If prompt diagnosis followed by adequate therapy had failed, his portal hypertension would likely produce intractable symptoms over time. A simple question arose in the present case: Why symptoms of portal hypertension did not appear in this case? We speculated one possible reason was that APF was developed not at the main trunk level but at the stump of anterior Glissonean pedicle which was located at relatively peripheral lesion compared with main trunk.
Therapeutic strategies for APFs include surgery (e.g., partial hepatectomy and ligation of the related hepatic artery) and IVR (e.g., transarterial embolization). Our patient had an adequate length between the stump of the anterior hepatic artery and the bifurcation of the right hepatic artery, and it was considered suitable for transarterial embolization. We suggest that angiography should be considered as the first-choice imaging technique to elucidate the details of APFs and subsequently determine the optimal therapy .
Glissonean pedicle transection (i.e., FSTG) is now routinely employed during hepatectomy worldwide. We consider this maneuver to be very useful during major hepatectomy. The occurrence of APF after surgery is considered to be low [16–18]. However, once an APF has developed, the patient will experience a poor clinical course accompanied by severe portal hypertension, and this intractable complication requires surgical or interventional treatment.
APF after hepatectomy is very rare, and some APFs appear to be cryptogenic. Our thought-provoking case may be informative in terms of providing a possible explanation of the causes of APF after hepatectomy.

L'économie du Monténégro n'est pas très développée. Elle reposait à 77 % sur les échanges avec la Serbie.

Freinée par un relief très accidenté, la mise en place d'infrastructures a pris un retard considérable avec les guerres qui ont succédé à l'éclatement de la Yougoslavie.

Atouts
L'économie a pourtant des atouts, notamment du côté du tourisme sur la côte (bouches de Kotor, ports typiques, plages ensoleillées une grande partie de l'année, climat proche des îles grecques).

L'agriculture est encore traditionnelle et de subsistance : légumes, céréales, pommes de terre, tabac, vin, agrumes, olives, figues... Elle peut se développer si les communications terrestres s'améliorent : élevage de bovins, de porcins et de volailles.

L'industrie se concentre dans les grandes villes vers des biens de consommation (bazar, textile, petite alimentation ...).

Le secteur minier s'illustre en exploitation de mines de bauxite, de lignite et de fer.
Le traitement de l'aluminium est important : .

L'industrie du tabac performe également, un certain temps en partie pour la contrebande de tabac.

Économie souterraine
. Néanmoins le pays a réussi à attirer 600 millions d'euros d'investissement en 2006.

Produit national brut
En 2007, le produit national brut dépassait à peine le milliard d'euros (l'équivalent du PNB d'une sous-préfecture française). Le déficit de la balance des paiements courants représente 31 % du PIB ce qui est le record d'Europe.

Hors crise
Mais contrairement à ce que pensaient beaucoup d'experts à l'indépendance du pays, le Monténégro n'a pas connu de crise financière, dont la crise économique mondiale de 2008.

Le pays a intégré le FMI et a rejoint l'OMC en 2012.

Le Monténégro a adopté unilatéralement l'euro comme monnaie nationale, sans faire partie de l'Union économique et monétaire européenne, ni même de l'Union européenne. Ce n'est donc pas un pays de la zone euro.

With the full title of 'What Does This Look Like In The Classroom? Bridging The Gap Between Research And Practice', this book pretty much does what it says on the tin. Hendrick and Macpherson have harnessed the voices of some of education's leading lights in order to answer questions about classroom practice from real teachers. The book's chapters each focus on a particular aspect of teaching: two specialists are assigned per chapter to share their wisdom, according to their expertise.
With Assessment, Marking and Feedback, Behaviour, Reading and Literacy, SEN, Motivation, Memory and Recall, Classroom Talk and Questioning, Learning Myths, Technology and Independent Learning all covered, this is a fairly comprehensive overview of education. Of course, there are questions and answers not given in the book, but often the commentators give good starting points for teachers to seek out further reading. The added focus on the potential of research-informed practice to improve workload provides further reason for this book to be read.
The book's crowning strong point is that it is incredibly readable. The format makes for bite-size chunks and all the contributors are gifted communicators. There are one or two bits of jargon (particularly relating to cognitive science) that might have benefited from the provision of a glossary but this doesn't at all detract from the overall accessibility of the book. It is probably best read as a whole so that the contents are familiar in a time of need - it is the sort of book that should be constantly referred back to. Having said this, it is organised well enough to be dipped into as and when is needed.
My one criticism of the book is that much of what is presented as research isn't backed up with any references as to who did the research, when it was done, under what circumstances, and so on. This leaves the reader to trust that the authors either have conducted the research themselves, or have internalised the findings of other research. Having said this, the book is aimed at teachers so it necessarily leans towards classroom practice rather than the intricacies of the research.
I would go so far as to say that 'What Does This Look Like In The Classroom?' is an essential volume for a school's CPD library - it could be the gateway to developing research-based practice for some teachers, so accessible does it make the material. It will confirm some of your teaching practices and give you an understanding of why things that you do already work, and it will challenge other practices, but in the least confrontational way possible - this is because it never belittles or devalues teacher experience and expertise. Even if every teacher doesn't read this, if a school's research lead and other leaders do, there is a good chance that classrooms will begin to reflect more of what research outlines as best bets.

By: Alyssa Baranski
FACET is pleased to announce the winners for the 2nd Annual Academy Awards on Excellence in Teaching!
Finalists for the category of "Learning how to Learn" (winner identified below):
Miranda Yaggi -- Winner. Miranda is a lecturer of business communication at IU Bloomington. She was nominated for her class activity, "Sticky Revision Workshop," which challenges student teams to apply a rigorous, systematic approach to their ongoing writing process, encompassing continual brainstorming, drafting, and revision. In the workshop students engage each other in debate and discussion capturing ideas on sticky notes and coming to consensus on a well-structured logical argument.
Suzanne Menzel. Suzanne is a lecturer in computer science at IU Bloomington. She was nominated for her class activity, "Say My Name," which is about overcoming stereotype threat. Students learn about stereotype threat and receive several examples. They leverage their lived experiences to write coping strategies so as to inoculate themselves against performance-dampening effects of stereotype threat.
Finalists for the category of "Intensive Writing" (winner identified below):
Rhonda Wrzenski -- Winner. Rhonda is an associate professor of political science at IU Southeast. She was nominated for her assignment, "Predicting a Toss-Up Congressional Election in the Classroom," which asks student teams to use to select a competitive Congressional race to follow over the course of the semester. Students submit mini reports on different facets of their race at five different points in the semester, including an election-day prediction. The students then integrate their mini reports into a final report.
Kathy L. Ritchie. Kathy is an associate professor of psychology at IU South Bend. She was nominated for her assignment, "The Self-Reflective Writing Assignment," which helps students become independent learners as they develop not just writing skills, but how to effectively use guidance in the form of instructor comments. The assignment essentially leads to a written "dialogue" between the instructor and the students concerning their writing.
Julie Goodspeed-Chadwick. Julie is an associate professor of women's studies at IUPUC. She was nominated for her five assignment sequence, "Reflection, Analysis, Assessment, and Synthesis: Student Investment and Writing across the Course," which culminates in a synthesis of four scaffolding papers. The sequence provides students with lower stakes opportunities to learn the thinking and writing skills needed for a successful seminar paper.
Finalists for the category of "Collaborative Activities" (winner identified below):
Lisa Russell -- Winner. Lisa is an Assistant Professor of Strategic Management and Entrepreneurship at IUS. She was nominated for her activity "The Final Countdown: A Design for Helping Students Implement Business Strategies," which leverages students' thinking skills—comprehension, synthesis, and evaluation—to improve students' overall understanding of functional responsibilities and functional implications when a company pursues a new strategy. The exercise uses groups of 3-5 students to act as Top Management Teams of a company and use 30 minutes to discuss scenarios, implications, and implementation tasks for functional areas. This exercise allows students to incorporate pre-existing knowledge of business while experiencing the way top managers integrate multiple functional area responsibilities into a cohesive overall strategic decision-making process.
Jeanne Johnston. Jeanne is a Clinical Associate Professor at the School of Public Health at IUB. She was nominated for her activity "Interactive Cancer Case Studies," which encourages students to use case based learning to practice effective communication, assessment, and program development in a diseased population. The students work in pairs and play both the role of trainer and client and this provides them with the opportunity to practice their interview skills, test their knowledge, receive feedback, and personally reflect on their performance.
Christopher Young and Joseph Ferrandino. Both at IUN, Christopher is an Associate Professor of History and Joseph Ferrandino is an Associate Professor of Criminal Justice. They were nominated for their activity, "Using GIS to Engage with and Learn History," which helps students learn American History within the context of geography through a series of projects. These projects are designed to make learning collaborative, participatory, flexible, innovative, and visual to allow history to come alive for students through mapping. Using GIS in history courses was an approach adopted so students could "see" the history they were reading and where it occurred in the context of geography and topography.
Finalists for the category of "Creative Uses of Online Tools" (winner identified below):
Sridhar Ramachandran -- Winner. Sridhar is an associate professor of informatics at IU Southeast. He was nominated for the activity, "Google Maps for student empowerment," which asks first year students to develop a google map/database of alumni that they share with junior and senior students. First year students gain perspective on the field and the potential it offers for careers in a personally relevant activity that connects them with the program's juniors and seniors creating a feeling of community and belonging.
Christian Rogers. Christian is an assistant professor of computer graphics technology at IUPUI. He was nominated for his activity, "EASEL: An App to Support Reflection and Content in Real Time," which uses a mobile app to help students engage in metacognitive activity in real time. The app allows an instructor to assign reflection questions, review content, assign photo and video tasks, or have students check in to a location. Tasks can be released at a certain location or a certain time or to particular students.
Tara Kingsley. Tara is an assistant professor of education at IU Kokomo. She was nominated for the activity, "Classroom Gamification," which prompts students to become lesson planning ninjas. In this game, students complete quests, or activities, which are challenges performed to engage in course content. Badges, achievements, and rewards signify rank and provide feedback to students to document their progress. Students level up as they master content, ultimately achieving a lesson plan they can be proud of.
Finalists for the category of "Community Engagement" (winner identified below):
Angela Coppola -- Winner. Angela is an Assistant Professor of Health Sciences and Co-Director of the Applied and Community Research Center at IUK. She was nominated for her activity "Informing Outreach Methods for the Howard County Health Department's Overdose Rescue Kit Program," which involved students in sharing a report for recommendations to improve outreach methods. This project was used as a service-learning approach to provide students with experience in the role that Certified Health Education Specialists would play in improving health programs. The goal was to foster civic engagement through a professional and personally meaningful learning experience. Lastly, this service-learning activity was an opportunity for students to serve the HCHD and play a role in addressing the opioid epidemic in Howard County and Indiana.
Erin Doss. Erin is an Assistant Professor of Communication Arts at IUK. She was nominated for her activity "Social Media Campaigns Service Learning Project," which engaged students with hands-on experience with social media campaigns. Her motivation for using this activity was to give students the understanding of how to deal with challenges as they arise and wanted students to create and implement a campaign they could become invested in and could discuss in future job interviews. She also used this project to involve the community, especially with small businesses who struggle to create or maintain a strong online presence.
Jared Allsop. Jared is a Lecturer of Recreation, Park, and Tourism Studies at IUB. He was nominated for his activity "IU and Me," which is a community engagement program that allows for direct interactions between IU students and individuals with disabilities. "IU and Me" Allows IU's Recreational Therapy students to directly interact with individuals with disabilities in the community and allows them to conduct assessments, develop treatment goals/objectives for real clients, provide meaningful therapeutic programming, and participate in clinical documentation. "IU and Me" has partnered with StoneBelt, a local agency that works with adults with cognitive, developmental, and physical disabilities, to give their clients free RT programming and interaction with 45 energetic IU students.

I've done a lot of technology integration projects over the last seven years, but this year I started doing things a little differently. I realized that technology integration is about more than just finding a way to embed technology into a project, it's about planning an authentic assessment task which utilizes technology in a meaningful way. I'm starting to feel like a curriculum coordinator for technology, rather than a technology facilitator. I don't just facilitate technology, I develop entire units in partnership with the core subject teachers, and if technology fits, so be it; if not, we don't force it in. The ultimate goal is always the development of a solid unit of study.
This process really started for me at the beginning of this year when I attended a fantastic Understanding by Design workshop with Jay McTighe. I had been using the UbD process rather superficially for the last few years, but never really applied the process to my integration consultations with other teachers. I usually just sat down with the teachers, talked about what they wanted to accomplish and then helped them achieve their goals. Usually they already had their curriculum mapped out, activities and assessments defined, technology was basically just an fun new way to do the same old things – even though I never realized it at the time.
Focus on making this experience a positive one – sometimes the best tool to complete a project isn't always the most practical tool. This time was it going to be nice and easy – no pressure.
Thoroughly plan out this project based on her math standards to make it crystal clear that math was the focus, not technology.
Take all the stress of working with technology away from M. – make sure she does not have to worry about any technical issues, ranging from booking the laptop carts to software issues.
Have M. share her positive and stress-free experiences with a technology project around the school – maybe in an official way, like presenting at a staff meeting, but more importantly, in social conversations. Having a self-proclaimed "dinosaur" praising technology integration as an exciting and productive method for teaching math is the best sales pitch to get the rest of those "resisters" on board.
So, basically, there's a lot riding on this project. I've worked with about 70% of our middle school staff this year, but they're all enthusiasts, interested and ready to explore. M. is the first teacher that is really taking herself out of her comfort zone and experimenting with something that is totally new.
On the first day M. showed me the project that she was trying to enhance (the previous sixth grade math teacher used to do this project) – a to-scale drawing of a park on graph paper. She knew there would be a way to do the project utilizing technology and she saw this as an easy, introductory way to start integrating IT into her math program.
After M. left, I spent about a half hour experimenting with the various applications we have at school to see which would be the best fit for her. My goal was to keep it simple and non-intimidating, so I ended up setting up a template in Macromedia FreeHand with guide lines evenly spaced to reproduce graph paper. This may not have been the absolute best solution, but I always think in practicalities – the simpler the better, especially for teachers new to technology.
The next day, we sat down for about an hour to discuss which math standards M. needed to meet with the project. We made a conscious effort to only apply the standards that will actually be assessed over the course of the project. The unit planner started with almost every math standard listed, but now we have 5 (which is still a lot).
After we had selected the appropriate standards, we talked about what those standards really were trying to achieve. What were the essential understandings for the unit? What did M. want the students to remember after they've graduated high school? What is the big picture?
Then, we re-phrased those essential understandings into questions. All the while we are focusing on the standards we listed in step one – what will the students be able to demonstrate if they have truly understood the standards?
Next, we took the project that the last teacher developed and looked at how we could adapt that experience to accurately reflect the standards. We rephrased and reorganized the project to reflect the GRASPs model of assessment planning (Goal, Role, Audience, Situation, Product). This was a lot of fun for M. – taking the somewhat stale project idea and transforming it into an authentic assessment with a real-world application. The students would now all play a role in designing an accessible park for our neighborhood as members of the Community Planning Committee They are responsible for taking into consideration the needs of all park enthusiasts and persuading the committee to accept their design. Every student in sixth grade will then share their own park, and have a chance to vote on the park which best meets the needs of the community, via our wiki.
After we had designed the final assessment task, we developed additional assessment activities to support student learning to enable them to be able to successfully complete the final assessment. Taking the time to plan activities through the lenses of the 6 facets of understanding really helped us to develop some exciting activities, all focused on the standards but not all involving technology. We thought about accessibility and had the students conduct a "field experiment" by trying to access our upper field on a wheelchair (impossible) to reach the facet of empathy. We also wanted to emphasize the real-life application of mathematical concepts through the use of a digital photo-story journal to reach the facet of self-knowledge. We honestly never would have thought of these ideas if we hadn't utilized the 6 facets of understanding as we were planning.
Once we had the project sorted, we posted everything on M.'s brand new sixth grade math wiki (yay!) and created the corresponding student wiki for this project.
Honestly, it was so much fun coming up with all these ideas. UbD makes it so natural to develop ideas that are truly relevant to the standards, but also unique and exciting. And now that the project has started (yesterday, so no finished work yet) M. has been so pleased at how smooth and stress-free things have been progressing. Every day she tells me how nervous but excited she is about this project.
Hi Kim.I enjoyed reading your blog. I understand your enthusiasm about using UBD. At my school we have just begun implementing Jay McTighe's UBD principles when co planning. I was fortunate to attend a Jay McTighe conference recently held in Melbourne with 5 other colleagues. Listening to Jay speak really helped understand how to use his planning model. In fact, from our time at the conference we have been able to produce a proforma that will help 'walk'our staff through the stages when they collaboratively plan inquiry units of work using the Understanding By Design model.
You are such an enthusiastic technology specialist. The time and effort you put into making things as painfree and enjoyable for teachers is a real credit to you. Any school will be lucky to have you working for them and I'm sure that your new school is very much looking forward to claiming you as their own! It is such cool to complete collaborative projects with you and I am so lucky to have crossed paths and journeyed somewhat with you in the vast ocean of ICT!! Long may it continue!
Jay is amazing isn't he?! When he was here in KL we got to pick his brain about everything related to curriculum planning and he was so inspirational! You could ask him how to design any curricular unit and he had creative, unique and engaging ideas for every one!
Thank you! Clearly the fates aligned to bring us together! I can't wait to see what exciting ideas we cook up next year when we're in different school divisions!
Kim, You constantly inspire me. On my summer list is to revamp how teacher tech integration plans are created. I will not yet be able to bring them through this level of planning for the plan, but I'm now seeing a way to put my UBD training to work. Might even inspire me to take the next level training online from ASCD this summer.
Your posting is inspirational … and I am curious … what advice do you have for someone new to UbD technology?
I teach five classes a day (K-4, lab setting) and have about 90 minutes a day for collaboration and facilitation. I'm told we are considering a new facilitation model for next year, and though I don't have details yet, I am told it will involve less time in the lab and more in the classroom. Asuming my role will remain a mixture of regular lab instruction and facilitation, how would you proceed in terms of implementation?
In short: how do I structure a rollout for this new, collaborative lesson design methodology in an environment where teachers are (largely) accustomed to planning by themselves?
I really love your last paragraph, it echoes my sentiments exactly!
Thanks for your insights and suggestions. Your enthusiasm is contagious. How do you know your projects and plans "work," that is students learn more than they would with other instruction?
Pingback: always learning » To Ed.D. or Not to Ed.D.
I think the biggest thing is to go into the collaborative process with the core-curriculum learning at the focus. There are so many ways to bring technology into the classroom that I'm sure you will have no trouble at all seeing them. The critical aspect is to make sure teachers are aware that you're not taking up their time with "computer class," but instead you're helping their students learn their content even better in, perhaps, a more engaging or exciting way. UbD will help you stay focused and will help your collaborating teacher see that the partnership is about student learning – not technology.
Good question. I guess that's basically a question of experience. I can see the difference in my students now, as compared to how I used to teach when I first started. I see the independence, the motivation, the quality, the enthusiasm that, to be honest, I didn't see in my first few years. It's pretty obvious to me that this is because of my quality of planning and instruction based on UbD.
Yes! The facets really help you look at a project in a variety of ways! What's interesting for me, is that as an MYP teacher I always had students develop 3 different plans for a final product during the planning stage and I always told them because even though they came up with one idea, it might not be the best and having to think of others may force them to be more creative and come up with something even more interesting. In the end, students rarely go with their first idea… It's the same with those 6 facets!


This is a popular choice, characterised by modern lines, and sleek fonts.
These UK logos tend to look quite simple. A bold font of the company name, usually without embellishment.
These logos can vary hugely, but a lot of them use characters or creatively make their letters into images.
Luxury logos frequently use elegant script fonts, with a dark coloured background and subtle embellishments.
UK company logos aimed at children have a very different feel to all other logos. They use bright colours, characters and bold, informal fonts.
Heritage UK logos draw on motifs and elements from the British design past. They can be very simple in monochrome, or draw inspiration from heraldry or Victorian prints.
A lot of the time if you see it you will know. That's why we recommend our 10 concept package, and have unlimited revisions as standard.
Another thing to consider – is your logo Active or passive? Having a psychologically active logo can give your company the edge – check it out.

We all lives an ordinary life under many pressures and expectations at different stages and in different situations in life. At times it becomes difficult to manage a situation and to come out of a problem unscratched and unbroken. This is a time when we look up to someone for inspiration. The one man who can give us the required courage and motivation, one who can lift our spirit. This can be a situation you have witnessed someone coming out so easily which inspired you so much that throughout your life you carry a positive attitude. Thus giving you a role model in your life whom you don't only follow but also preaches others what he does in your life.
He inspires you to stand for the right whatever and whoever was standing in front of you.
He tells that everything concludes positively and there is no single situation which can break your courage.
When you feels lonely he is the one which make you understand that there is someone special waiting for you in this world.
Nothing is powerful than love.
Never leave your friends midway.
Nothings matter more than your family.
Talent and hard-work turns fortunes.
These and many more things I have learnt from my role model and will continue to learn. My role model is the king of Bollywood Mr Shahrukh Khan. Only while writing this post I realized how much I am inspired by him. Since my childhood I used to copy his actions ,his mannerism,his style. He was projected as a lover boy which makes him heartthrobs of millions of girls and for boys he is the ideal example of how a man should treat women. A role model is one which sets an example for people around him and change their perspectives and I think he never falls short of this definition. Characters portrayed by him never encouraged vulgarity on screen.
Each role he played is inspiring,whether Raj of DDLJ who changed himself to get his love, Kabir of Chak De who give life to a dead team, Veer of Veer-Zara whose Indian values won heart of a Pakistani girl, Raj Aryan of Mohabbatein who stood for love against mighty Amitabh Bachchan, Rizwan Khan of MNIK giving message that don't mix religion with terrorism, the list is endless as each character of his was inspirational. One important think common to all these characters is the respect for girls which is lost somewhere in today's world. Rajkapoor as Raju became face of innocent youth of Independent India, Amitabh Bachchan became face of seventies as Vijay the angry young man showing angst against the system of that time while Shahrukh as Rahul was not a struggling youth but one who was craving for love in self oriented world what the 90's was.
His real life is also inspiring. When in Bollywood relationship changes like clothes he remained loyal to single woman throughout his life, there were speculations sometimes but he came out unscratched. How he conduct himself publicly is an example for many aspiring actors.Those actors who becomes arrogant with just one or two hits should learn from his modesty. His leadership skills are beyond any doubts which make his each venture successful, he is working with a same team for years which shows how dependable he is.
Shahrukh Khan was the first person who taught marketing skills to the film industry. He is hard working,a good husband, a caring father,a complete entertainer,an amazing speaker,a trustworthy friend,a self made man and truly a good human being. What else you demand from someone to be a role model?


Scar is a fibrous tissue that occurs at sites of injury as part of body's healing process. Scars may be depressed (pitted) or raised (fully, in parts, or just in the edges) and may have the same color as the surrounding skin or be lighter or darker. Some people are more prone to scar than others.
– Mild and superficial scars can often be treated with microdermabrasion. Monthly treatments are recommended to improve general skin tone and texture. Chemical Peels including medical-level peels such as VI Peel can also be helpful.
– Micro-needling can be effective in treating mild to moderate scars.
– For deeper and more noticeable scars, Laser Skin Resurfacing (MicroLaser Peel) is the next treatment to consider. In this treatment, a laser beam is used to remove superficial layers of dead skin and to reduce skin surface irregularities, including scars.
– CO2 Fractional Laser is also highly effective for treatment of deeper and more noticeable acne scars. In this method, skin is treated with tiny yet powerful laser beams in a controlled pattern. The delivered energy stimulates the production and rearrangement of collagen and other components of healthy skin, rejuvenating the skin and reducing the appearance of the scar and other skin irregularities.
– Scars with redness, erythema and pigmentation changes (hypo or hyper pigmentation) can be treated with IPL (Photofacial). Laser Skin Resurfacing can also help with some pigmentation changes.
– For depressed and pitted scars, various Dermal Fillers can be injected underneath the scarred area to raise it and make it less noticeable.

Hey, you didn't really miss anything important, this was more of a setup episode but don't miss tonight or tomorrow (you know how those serials go; leave the cliffhanger for the weekend...)
Anyway, yes, they met at the river and Gukhwa still refuses to give in to her feelings and tell Yunhu that she feels the same for him...
Meanwhile, Gwangman (the son-in-law) has told the father-in-law that they plan on moving into a basement apartment and that he doesn't want to work at the communications company for fear of ruining the reputation of the FIL by exhibiting any ineptitude.
The eldest daughter is in the kitchen with mom helping with the chores and mom exclaims that her wrist and her feet are sore from doing all of the housework since the housekeeper left to take care of her mother. The daughter is asked to find a replacement, but she says she doesn't know anyone suitable....She inquires as to the salary for the position and finds out that it's $1800 (I think that's per month, but I could be wrong. In any event, it's a figure that makes the daughter perk up).
At some point, Gwangman comes in and assumes the duties of peeling the Korean pears with skill and confidence. The mother notices this and compliments him on his abilities. He then notices that she has one of the newest and coolest oven/range appliances and the mother, instead of realizing that she has found her new domestic help, exclaims, "What kind of man pays attention to kitchen appliances!"
Meantime, there is a development with Eomji and Mr. Hong, she is selling the diner although Mr. Hong goes to try and talk her out of it....
Yunhu returns for dinner and packs for his 4pm flight the next day, the whole while both he and Gukwha pine for each other....
The next day, he goes to the airport and says goodbye to the family before embarking on the plane for Singapore.
As this is happening, Gukwha has not been able to rest the entire night and decides to wash her comforter in a bin out on the roof. As the clock hits 3:20pm she throws on her shoes and begins her run for the airport to try and catch Yunhu. As she runs down the street (looking much like Wonder Woman) the picture freezes on her anguished face.
"Official space helmet on, oh Captain Video!"

Thanks! Ah yes, the classic run to the airport before their loved ones leave.

Next stop, Puroland!
Yes, she had days if not a week or more to say the tiniest thing about her feelings, and all day that day to run to the airport if she wanted to, but she has to wait until 40 minutes before his flight is set to take off. Whatta dope.

Ujeong (sp?) could have set them up with a little explanation..... U knows that GW is getting sick over YH's departure, but YH doesn't know. YH might have tried a bit more if he knew. Oh, well, patience is a virtue.

After incorporating new elements into their sound with each album, the Ramones fully went beyond punk here, crafting an album built for radio airplay. "I Wanna Be Sedated" is the most notable song, but "Don't Come Close" is as close to a ballad as they get, with Joey Ramone's voice bending gently around a danceable guitar lick. "Questioningly" also takes a slower approach, letting an acoustic guitar make up the song's bones. The Ramones sound like adults, perhaps for the first time.

PGA Tour's Camilo Villegas loses 22-month-old daughter to brain tumors
Miami – The 22-month-old daughter of golfer Camilo Villegas of Colombia has died from tumors on her brain and spine, the PGA Tour announced Monday.
Mia Villegas was diagnosed March 14, two weeks after Villegas and his wife, Maria, noticed she wasn't as playful. Tests showed tumors on her brain and spine. She had surgery, and then chemotherapy. The tour said she died Sunday night.
Villegas, whose four PGA Tour victories include consecutive wins in the BMW Championship and Tour Championship to close out the 2008 season, spoke of her health when he played a Korn Ferry Tour event last month.
"The PGA TOUR is deeply saddened having lost a member of our family, Mia Villegas," PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said. "We grieve with Camilo and Maria and our thoughts and prayers are with the Villegas family."


Postmortem MRI (PMMR) examinations are seldom performed in legal medicine due to long examination times, unfamiliarity with the technique, and high costs. Furthermore, it is difficult to obtain access to an MRI device used for patients in clinical settings to image an entire human body. An alternative is available: ex situ organ examination. To our knowledge, there is no standardized protocol that includes ex situ organ preparation and scanning parameters for postmortem MRI. Thus, our objective was to develop a standard procedure for ex situ heart PMMR examinations. We also tested the oily contrast agent Angiofil® commonly used for PMCT angiography, for its applicability in MRI. We worked with a 3 Tesla MRI device and 32-channel head coils. Twelve porcine hearts were used to test different materials to find the best way to prepare and place organs in the device and to test scanning parameters. For coronary MR angiography, we tested different mixtures of Angiofil® and different injection materials. In a second step, 17 human hearts were examined to test the procedure and its applicability to human organs. We established two standardized protocols: one for preparation of the heart and another for scanning parameters based on experience in clinical practice. The established protocols enabled a standardized technical procedure with comparable radiological images, allowing for easy radiological reading. The performance of coronary MR angiography enabled detailed coronary assessment and revealed the utility of Angiofil® as a contrast agent for PMMR. Our simple, reproducible method for performing heart examinations ex situ yields high quality images and visualization of the coronary arteries.

The contrast agent Angiofil® was provided for this study by the Swiss Company Fumedica AG.
