There is a lack of subcutaneous anticoagulant counseling tools for COVID-19 patients. This study aims to develop and validate a written counseling tool for subcutaneous anticoagulant use in COVID-19 patients. A prospective cohort study was performed with expert panels and patients. The tool was validated by hospital pharmacists using Content Validity Index (I-CVI), Scale-level-CVI (S-CVI), and Universal Acceptance (UA). Face validation by patients was determined using Item Acceptance Index (IAI), and Universal Acceptance (UA). Hospital pharmacists (n=26) were mostly female (n=18, 69.2%) and Chinese (n=20, 76.9%), with a mean age of 35.8±2.9 years. All items were assessed relevantly (n=18, 100%), I-CVIs ranging from 0.96-1.00 by hospital pharmacists. The average proportion of items, I-CVI average, (Sum of I-CVI/no. of items: 17.88/18) was reported as 0.99. S-CVI/UA (Sum of UA/no. of items: 15/18) was reported as 0.83, and S-CVI/Average (Sum of I-CVI/no. of items: 17.88/18) was reported as 0.99 indicating high content validity. Patients (n=28) involved in face validation of the construct were mostly female (n=19, 67.9%), Malay (n=46.4%), and tertiary educated (n=20, 71.4%) with a mean age of 38.0±9.8 years. All items were marked as relevant (n=18, 100%), with IAI ranging from 0.93-1.00, suggesting patients accepted each item of the construct. The average proportion of items was reported as 0.99 (Sum of IAI/no. of items: 17.82/18), indicating excellent acceptance and content comprehension among patients. The developed counseling tool is acceptable for anticoagulant education among COVID-19 patients.

“…In addition, this autonomous work must be motivating, provide students with the possibility of feedback, and integrate the contents of the face-to-face classes [10,11,39,40]. The development of ICTs has allowed the incorporation of different technological elements that favor autonomous work [15,16]. This development has been driven by globalization and other recent contexts such as the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic or the transition from face-to-face education programs to distance education, highlighting the use of multimedia and the Internet [13][14][15].…”

“…In this line, autonomous learning has become even more relevant given the transition from the face-to-face modality to b-learning modalities (blended learning) or e-learning (electronic learning) in several higher education and postgraduate programs [13]. This transition has been driven by the evolution of information and communication technologies (ICTs), although global circumstances such as the SARS-CoV2 (COVID-19) pandemic have also influenced, forcing a change in the paradigms of education in a few years in favor of distance education [14][15][16]. These contexts have made distance education and ICTs models accepted for their ability to adapt to different disciplines, demonstrating the development of autonomous learning and promoting key professional skills such as permanent updating, innovation, and creation [17][18][19].…”

“…Therefore, there is a problem of choosing the optimal model of the educational process [17], which can be solved by comparative analysis of various models of the educational process up to the B2 level. When carrying out such a study, it is also necessary to consider the features of professional economic vocabulary that contains a significant stock of special terms constantly updated in the face of active changes in the professional international environment and the development of information and communications technology (ICT), which leads to the need to constantly expand the vocabulary of future economists and search for effective forms of education [18].…”

Introduction. Proficiency in English is becoming increasingly important in the global economy, especially in business and finance. By studying English, economics students can improve their communication skills, gain access to information, career opportunities, and gain a competitive edge in their academic and professional interests. That is why in the modern system of higher education, the process of teaching a foreign language in a professional direction requires special attention, which involves the preparation of future specialists for the use of a foreign (English) language in specific business areas. An important property for effective intercultural communication is the ability to correctly formulate statements and understand the speech of other people in English. An important property for effective intercultural communication is the ability to correctly formulate statements and understand the speech of other people in English. First of all, communication should be carried out by mastering the English professional vocabulary (EPV). In turn, the possession of EPV is one of the most important components of the formation of speech competence up to level B2 (according to the all-European scale of levels CEFR), which is the main aspect of learning English at a university for students of foreign language professional communicative competence. The purpose of this study is to determine the most effective model for teaching students – future economists English professional vocabulary (EPL) to the level of independent English proficiency (B2) and develop proposals for improving this model. Research methods. 96 2nd year students of the financial faculty of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation took part in the pedagogical experiment. The study was conducted within 5 months. The main research methods were the method of scientific literature analysis and experimental study of the learning process of students – future economists using three learning models (traditional (classroom learning), distance (electronic), blended). Methods of mathematical statistics used: Kruskal-Wallis H-test and Mann-Whitney U-test. Results. Conducted test tasks (both written and oral) by students of three experimental groups before the methodological experiment showed the absence of statistical significance between the results of performance. This indicated that in the three experimental groups, first-year students are at the same level of mastering the EPV. However, after conducting a methodical experiment, the presence of statistical significance was revealed. This indicated that after the completion of the methodological experiment, the students of the three experimental groups of the first year of study are at different levels of mastering the EVP. Based on the results of the control assignments performed by students, it was found that in all experimental groups there was an increase in all indicators, but the greatest progress was observed in the performance of written and oral tasks in the EG3 group, in which the EPV was trained according to a blended model. Conclusion. Thus, the blended learning model turned out to be the most practical approach to the educational process at the university when learning a foreign language. Calculations have shown that the use of a blended model of EPV training for students of economic specialties ultimately led to the largest increase in the performance of written and oral assignments. To improve the model of blended learning, the authors have developed some improvements, upon implementation of which, the model of blended learning will become more effective in teaching English to the level of independent proficiency (B2) of students – future economists. The prospect of further research may be to determine the most effective ratio of classroom (traditional) and distance (remote) classes in teaching English to reduce the cost of education while increasing the level of foreign language professional communicative competence among students.
