I'M HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THAT I AM PART OF A REVIVAL. During my school days, we had fellowship, seniors, and classmates who took it upon themselves to form a group and anchored tutorials so that we could understand the courses taught, wear off anxiety, and shut the voice of failure. I realized that the sacrifices they made for us made us stand out and face every fear and challenge with an optimistic mindset. Yes, you can see the result in me. In the last lap of 2023, plans were set in motion in the bid to empower student/ student nurses to thrive academically and spiritually. This vision #Prolific_Learning_Academy driven by Nr IFEOLUWA ENISAN the founder of #Strong_Nurses_Hub, is to help students struggling with their academics have a strong stamina to combat any academic struggles.

Unlocking the Future: Why Intergenerational Courses Are Necessary 🌟 In a rapidly changing world, the need for intergenerational courses has never been more evident. Here's why they are absolutely essential: Diverse Perspectives: Every generation brings its unique life experiences and viewpoints. By coming together in intergenerational courses, we can tap into a rich well of wisdom, creativity, and fresh ideas that push boundaries and drive innovation. Mentorship and Learning: The transfer of knowledge between generations is invaluable. Older generations can impart their tried-and-true expertise, while younger ones can bring cutting-edge skills and digital proficiency to the table. It's a win-win for everyone involved. Strengthening Communities: Building bridges between generations fosters stronger, more cohesive communities. It promotes empathy, understanding, and the development of a shared vision for the future, ultimately resulting in a more harmonious society. Professional Growth: In the workplace, intergenerational courses promote better teamwork and collaboration. Understanding and respecting generational differences can lead to improved communication, higher employee morale, and enhanced productivity. Inclusivity and Equality: By actively involving all generations, we create a more inclusive and equitable learning environment. It's a crucial step towards breaking down stereotypes and ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to learn and grow. Let's continue to champion the value of intergenerational courses 🌎💪 Sign up for our upcoming course on 30 November here: https://lnkd.in/eqGM7jKB #IntergenerationalLearning #Diversity #Innovation #Inclusivity #EducationMatters Nightingale Hammerson

Dear Compassionate Colleagues!   We are really pleased to announce that Neil Currant @UniofBeds Liz Bunting University of the Arts London and I Queen Margaret University have been successful in securing funding for a The Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education Collaborative Enhancement Project. https://lnkd.in/dYAQdS_T We are setting up a network for those interested in #compassionate #assessment and how we can move the HE sector towards more compassionate assessment policies and practices. As educational developers who have been working in this area for some time, and on the back of our previous QAA Collaborative Enhancement project Belonging through Assessment: Pipelines of Compassion, we wanted to:   - Share good practices and policies.   - Encourage research and collaboration related to compassionate assessment.   - Co-create resources to support greater compassion in assessment.   - Empower ourselves and others to bring about change to the sector. We have launched a JISCmail list, please join here: https://lnkd.in/dATgZBRc *We are hosting an online launch event on Friday 22nd March at 1-2pm and invite you to join us to start conversations and share approaches.  Book a space here: tinyurl.com/3mhu7xvu The event will cover:   - Short introduction from QAA   - What is compassionate assessment?   - Discussion on what compassionate assessment means to you?   - Existing resources on compassionate assessment   - Invitation to contribute *About the network: * Since the pandemic, there has been a growing interest in compassionate pedagogy. The pandemic highlighted the urgency of responding to student wellbeing and discussions on how to support students during this challenging time. This rupture sparked critical reflections in the sector about how we might “reimagine assessment for good” (Sambell and Brown, 2021 p.11). Compassionate pedagogy is one of relational education, building relationships with students to notice distress and oppression, and take action to reduce harm. However, the ideas of compassionate pedagogy and compassionate assessment are challenging concepts, both conceptually and as something to implement in practice. Quality assurance and regulatory pressure as well as institutional and disciplinary cultures present significant barriers. Andrew et. al. (2023) provide a useful framing of these issues in their editorial ‘The role of compassion in higher education practices’, highlighting the gap between wanting an ethos of compassion and the reality of practice and policy. We look forward to future conversation and sharing on compassionate assessment. The Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) who has kindly agreed to support the setting up of this network.   For more information please contact Vikki Hill

I failed my driving test twice before finding the right teacher: he was recommended by the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order (FWBO) in Colchester. He loved to tell me 'Helen, your mind is very racy...' and that I needed to calm down to be a safe and competent driver. He annoyed me a bit at the time, but he proved a worthy teacher who got me through on the third attempt. Today is the deadline for candidates to the ECFMG (the US regulator for medical education) to submit all their paperwork to apply for a medical residency at the hospital or hospitals of their choice. One of the documents required for International Medical Graduates is a results statement for OET Medicine with Bs in Listening, Reading, and Speaking and a C in Writing. This means that a student who did not attain those scores needs to prepare everything again before reapplying next year. In this blog post, I highlight for recruiters the importance of early OET preparation for their candidates. If you need help with an OET resit, check out my OET Resit Ready course starting 6th March and 3rd April. https://lnkd.in/eXdqDxUF #usmle #usmleprep #workinusa #oetdoctors #doctorsrecruitment #testprep

Imagine stepping into a world where academic support isn't just about cramming for the next test or patching up the holes in your knowledge, like temporary fixes to a leaking roof. Check out LAS medical coaching, where the approach to education is as innovative as it is effective, weaving together 25 years of proven experience with evidence-based, process-oriented strategies that go beyond mere content tutoring. Now, picture this: instead of focusing solely on what you don't know, the LAS method dives deep into why specific gaps exist in your understanding and tackles learning obstacles head-on. Developed by Loren Deutsch, this model isn't just pulled out of thin air—it's meticulously crafted from a systems-based perspective. It integrates differentiated learning strategies, executive functioning support, the wisdom of clinical social work, and the finesse of educational therapy into a cohesive whole. What truly sets LAS apart is its heart. This isn't about dry, impersonal sessions; it's about listening intently to each student's unique story, providing tailored support, and fostering accountability. From the first meeting, the student and coach co-create an educational plan with actionable goals and clear, measurable outcomes. As the journey unfolds, each session builds on the last, honing daily goals and strategies that boost achievement and professionalism and nurture independence. These aren't just skills for acing medical school or nailing residency—they're invaluable life lessons, paving the way for lifelong learning and success. In essence, LAS medical coaching isn't just preparing students for exams; it's preparing them for a lifetime of success, with every tool, strategy, and piece of knowledge tailored to help them truly soar. #MedED #Studentsupport #Medicalcoaching #ExecutiveFunctioning
