“…We chose ethnographic approaches -which are increasingly common in educational research -as a suitable method for identifying the learning aims of the therapeutic team, including curriculum and structures [22][23][24][25]. In order to structure, analyze and present the complex intervention, we used the guidelines of the public Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) [26], which is increasingly used to describe complex interventions [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

Background: Children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) must replace lacking endogenous insulin by daily insulin injections or insulin pumps. Standards of treatment include educational programs enabling self-management. The program ‘Herdecker Kids with Diabetes' (HeKiDi) is based on an anthroposophic understanding of the human being and intends to provide an individualized, patient-oriented approach to developing diabetes-related and comprehensive human competencies. Aim: Analysis of the HeKiDi program for children (6-12 years) with T1DM as the first part of an evaluation of a complex intervention. Methods: Ethnographic approach, following the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ), including field observations and interviews with responsible persons, content analysis of materials for determining the structure and the curriculum, presented according to the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR). Results: The curriculum follows the standard but adds a learning circle between the child and the therapeutic team comprising 3 stages: (1) perception of the abilities and needs of the individual child supported by adult mentors themselves suffering from T1DM, (2) reflection within the therapeutic team, and (3) daily feedback to the child. Curricular Learning Objectives: Children feel recognized and supported in their individual developmental and diabetes-related competencies and develop motoric, artistic, communicative, and social skills to strengthen their self-efficacy and to understand T1DM as a lifelong awareness process. Conclusions: The curriculum including its associated learning goals and methods was presented. The program was explained and shown to be reproducible. Whether this program truly leads to better outcomes in regard to self-efficacy and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin) and how parents and children perceive this will have to be assessed using a comparative interventional study.

This study demonstrated a globally and locally relevant MOOC design model. By redeveloping a culturally responsive MOOC based on the course "Learning How to Learn (LHTL)" on the Coursera, the researchers created a sister MOOC to meet the local needs of Chinese learners. In this three-year design-based research study, four major iterations were conducted: (1) to analyze and prototype culturally responsive course contents for Chinese MOOCs learners; (2 and 3) to redevelop, pilot, field-test, and improve the new MOOC; and (4) to develop research-supported instructional practice for continued growth. This research contributed to the study of MOOCs by providing a thorough understanding of the design principles of, and theoretical claims about, the development of a culturally responsive MOOC. We hope this effort will help underpin further studies involving culturally responsive and comparable sister courses to advance MOOC research.

The issue of searching for new methodological approaches to the systematization that will encourage the increase of students motivation to learn mathematics under the competency-based approach is considered in this article. The research analyzes the existing works on the increase in students motivation to learn Mathematics, in particular, the use of cross-curricular connections while forming students competency. Competency-based problems, systematized according to the topic of the 10th grade Functions, their features and graphics, were determined as the tools to measure students competency and a method to form their motivation to learn mathematics. The use of such methods as the initial research and information gathering, systematization and structural analysis of the problems, data processing allowed the authors of the article to systematize the problems for school subjects of the 10th grade that demonstrate cross-curricular connections of Mathematics with other learning subjects and allow showing the advantages of the mathematical modeling in researching real processes. The research shows the realization of cross-curricular connections in time and such connections as parallel learning, perspective connections, use of the mathematical modeling method are shown. An experiment was held in order to prove the efficiency of implementing a system of the problems to demonstrate the use of the function in different tasks of natural subjects. The results proved that the implemented system of problems considerably influences the increase in students motivation to learn mathematics.
