Work integrated learning (WIL) is an educational approach that integrates learning with practical work experiences. Within the structure of Initial Teacher Education (ITE) in the Republic of Ireland, WIL is facilitated through School Placement (SP). SP is widely recognised as sitting at the fulcrum of ITE. It is primarily valued by partners in education as the opportunity to put learnt pedagogy and foundational knowledge into practice within a school setting and as such is a form of authentic assessment. Moreover, it is an opportunity for student teachers (STs) to become socialised into the profession as active partners in educational practice. The Teaching Council, as the regulator of the teaching profession in the Republic of Ireland, has emphasised the role of the ST as researcher and pedagogical collaborator, moving the focus of SP away from a singular consideration of practice within the classroom and towards a whole school and system wide approach. This expands the potential scope of SP towards a reciprocal relationship whereby the ST has agency to impact on the actions of the site of practice by sharing new and emerging practice and pedagogy from their research and studies. However, beyond these lofty ideals, SP is a formative assessment and determines the success of STs in obtaining their professional qualifications. Given the centrality of SP to ITE, the prevailing lack of consistency and clarity around the partnership model, the roles of partners and the future of SP, are worthy of exploration. This paper presents current doctoral research and preliminary results on the impact of the partnership model on the efficacy of SP as a robust form of assessment and proposes the introduction of a new SP partnership framework

Ano 11 – vol. 12 – n. 80/2023 Hoje o tempo amanheceu diferente. Para mim, pelo menos, amanheceu. É certo que a ditadura dos anos 1970 era militar. Havia disciplina e repressão. Cinquenta anos depois a ditadura mudou de mãos. Com repressão, mas sem disciplina. Sem fuzis, mas com canetas (da BIC à Montblanc) elas apontam contra nós todos, com o discurso de que só nos querem fazer o bem. Esse sentimento bem conhecemos e, embora a releitura, com a reescrita frenética tentem, jamais conseguirão enterrar os mais de cem milhões de mortos, sempre, porque queriam nosso bem.

This research has investigated the productive dynamics of the sugarcane agribusiness and its effects on the social reproduction of peasant groups in the administrative region of Ribeirão Preto, in the interior of São Paulo, an important territory hegemonized by sugarcane, which has been the stage of several agrarian conflicts in the state. To pursue this, semi-structured interviews were conducted with representative agents for the topic at hand, as well as field visits and analysis of secondary data. Using a historical-dialectical paradigm, the aim of this article is to demonstrate that in the region in question, an intensive, predatory neoextractivist activity is located, led by the sugarcane sector which, in its production logic, disrupts and hinders peasant production and social reproduction. The conclusions indicate that, even outside frontier zones, there have been severe impacts on local peasant groups, resulting in dispossession, land concentration, and conflicts of various kinds.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;">This research investigates the determinants of women's empowerment within households in a developing country. The investigation specifically focuses on the impact of employment and fertility, considering constraints imposed by family rules that play a pivotal role in shaping women's empowerment. The theoretical framework outlined in this study posits a simplistic model demonstrating that, within the prevailing family structure and household composition, earned income and fertility may bear significant relevance. Utilizing data extracted from the Pakistan Social and Living Standards Measurement Survey, we engage in estimating the level of female empowerment, operationalized as the extent of female authority over household expenditures. Notably, our empirical approach accounts for the endogeneity of employment and fertility through a two-stage estimation process. This involves leveraging information on family rules—representative of a family's cultural norms—pertaining to work and childbearing. Our empirical findings affirm the viability of family-specific rules as instruments to estimate and subsequently predict employment and fertility. Importantly, the evidence gleaned underscores the critical role of selecting valid threat options in theoretical analyses of women's empowerment.</span></p>

Background: The healthcare system in Ireland was profoundly affected by COVID-19. This study aimed to explore the impact of the pandemic on cancer surgery in Ireland, from 2019 to 2022 using three national health data sources. Methods: A repeated cross-sectional study design was used and included: (i) cancer resections from the National Histopathology Quality Improvement (NHQI) Programmes; (ii) cancer surgery from the National Cancer Registry Ireland (NCRI), and (iii) cancer surgery from Hospital Inpatient Enquiry (HIPE) System. Cancer surgery was presented by invasive/in situ and invasive only cancers (NCRI & HIPE), and by four main cancer types (breast, lung, colorectal & melanoma for NCRI & HIPE data only). Results: The annual number of cancer resections (NHQI) declined by 4.4% in 2020 but increased by 4% in 2021 compared with 2019. NCRI data indicated invasive/in-situ cancer surgery for the four main cancer types declined by 14% in 2020 and 5.1% in 2021, and by 12.3% and 7.3% for invasive cancer only, compared to 2019. Within HIPE for the same tumour types, invasive/in situ cancer surgery declined by 21.9% in 2020 and 9.9% in 2021 and by 20.8% and 9.6% for invasive cancer only. NHQI and HIPE data indicated an increase in the number of cancer surgeries performed in 2022. Conclusions: Cancer surgery declined in the initial pandemic waves suggests mitigation measures for cancer surgery, including utilising private hospitals for public patients, reduced the adverse impact on cancer surgery.

Abstract The study assessed the use of granitic rock powder (GRP) and manufactured sand (MS) in self-compacting mortars (SCM) to achieve desired rheological properties. Different water/cement ratios of 0.42, 0.46, and 0.63 were used with partial replacement of cement volume by GRP at levels of 17%, 20%, and 40%. Additionally, a volumetric replacement of 50% natural sand with MS was studied. The performance of SCMs was evaluated using mini V-Funnel and mini Slump Tests, as well as physical-mechanical characterization. It was found that GRP content significantly influenced superplasticizer consumption and flow time without requiring additional viscosity modifiers while incorporating MS decreased flow time parameter. Furthermore, simultaneous incorporation of GRP and MS increased mixture density by up to 14% improved compressive strength by up to 29%, and flexural tensile strength by up to19%.

Introduction: Many of the tasks performed by radiographers rely on effective communication with patients. This study aims to evaluate radiographers' experiences communicating with patients to determine what communication skills they believe they have, challenges they encounter and any familiarity with communication tools. It also assesses their willingness to accept further training and utilise recognised scripted communication tools, such as AIDET (Acknowledge, Introduce, Duration, Explanation and Thank you). Methods: Data were collected using an online survey deployed using the MS Forms platform. The survey consisted of 42 questions: 12 qualitative ‘open-ended’ questions and 30 ‘close-ended’ quantitative questions. The survey remained open between March and May 2022. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics and qualitative responses using thematic content analysis. Cross distribution analysis, basic percentages, and graphic bar charts were used for quantitative data analysis. Results: One hundred and nine radiographers completed the questionnaire. Quantitative analysis found that 84 % (n = 87) of radiographers had not received additional post-qualification training in patient communication. Five communication themes emerged from the thematic analysis; (1) Expectations, (2) Education, (3) Improvements, (4) Errors, and (5) Communication Tools. The scripted communication tool AIDET, according to 86 % (n = 89) of respondents, was perceived to be potential helpful in improving radiographer-patient interactions. Conclusion: Radiographers do not believe they have received adequate training for communicating with patients and would like to receive additional training and education. AIDET could be a useful communication tool as a starting guide for less experienced radiographers. There is a need for further studies that explore the use and effectiveness of scripted communication tools in radiographers’ communications skills. In addition, additional post-registration training opportunities need to be available for radiographers in patient communication.
