“…The authors reported that enhanced learning, active engagement, and increased motivation were realized as a result of the hybrid learning environment. Similarly, Decker et al (2010) suggest that a combination of simulations, lectures and demonstrations incorporated with multiple learning styles promotes critical thinking, reflection, and knowledge creation.…”

Simulations have been shown to be an effective tool in traditional learning environments; however, as distance learning grows in popularity, the need to examine simulation effectiveness in this environment has become paramount. A casual-comparative design was chosen for this study to determine whether students using a computer-based instructional simulation in hybrid and fully online environments learned better than traditional classroom learners. The study spans a period of 6 years beginning fall 2008 through spring 2014. The population studied was 281 undergraduate business students self-enrolled in a 200-level microcomputer application course. The overall results support previous studies in that computer simulations are most effective when used as a supplement to face-to-face lectures and in hybrid environments.

“…This calls for a change in the traditional teacher centered lectures to more innovative teaching methods where the students are allowed to discuss and take rational decisions (9) related to their patient care. The students need to practice, debating within them, analyzing the given solutions during any problem solving process which will lead to appropriate decision making.…”

Background: Multiple researches are going on in the field of promotion of critical thinking skills among nurses and one of the well studied teaching strategies is Concept Mapping (CM). Though Concept mapping is proved to be effective in promotion of critical thinking, it is not widely used. So this study aimed to identify the attitude of student nurses in relation to Concept mapping. Methods: Descriptive survey design was used in this study. Thirty nine pre-final year nursing students participated in this study. 5 point Likert scale was used to assess the attitude of the students. Verbal opinion was also collected in relation to Concept mapping. Results: There were 10 positive and 8 negative statements regarding Concept mapping which the student nurses evaluated. The mean attitude score was 74.5% which showed that the students were in favour of concept mapping. 97% of the students had said that they can easily apply it to the nursing process and 77% of them agreed that it can be used for the entire subjects including non nursing subjects like basic sciences. However, 61% of the students had said the preparation of concept mapping as a time consuming task and they would prefer traditional method of writing care plans. They had expressed that concept mapping made their mind fresh, kindled their thinking and improved their critical thinking. Many of them suggested that if concept mapping was being introduced to them from the first, it would have been the best method to write care plans. Conclusion: As there is acceptance from the student to use concept mapping, it is required to prepare the nurse educators to use concept mapping as one of the teaching method.

“…Root cause analysis (Ito et al 2022;Wen et al 2022;Lucke et al 2022) analyses the root cause of the discrepancy. A cause-and-effect diagram is another method described by authors (Decker et al 2010;Gould 1992). Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA), occupational health and safety assurance system (OHSAS), hazard and operability study (HAZOP), hazard analysis and critical control points, (HACCP) and other methods have found their application (Shi et al 2022;Zhan et al 2022;Noriyati et al 2015;Oyarzabal and Rowe 2017).…”

The introduction of increasingly strict rules related to the processing and storage of animal waste, the growing demand for energy and the creation of sustainable animal husbandry have led to an increased interest in the production of clean energy from animal waste. The production of biogas and its subsequent burning on the farm is among the most promising technologies. One of the possibilities for the utilization of biogas is through the use of small aggregates for the combined production of electricity and heat energy based on an internal combustion engine. Analysis of such facilities that have been put into operation show that alternative technologies using biogas as fuel are better than conventional options, both from an economic and an environmental point of view. In this sense, however, the introduction of such a technology into operation is always associated with a number of risks, since investments in new technologies are influenced by technical and economic uncertainty. When planning and preparing the plan for the construction of such a biogas facility, the investment costs, technical support and profitability of the project are essential. Introducing critical economic and technical parameters to inform the farmer of all possible investments, operational and unforeseen risks will allow him to accept the challenges and choose the best solution for his farm. In this publication, an analysis and assessment of the risk has been carried out based on the characteristics of the technology -the possible consequences of the risk are also presented. 124A risk matrix related to the specifics of the object and the technology is proposed, with the help of which, the type of risk is identified. Based on an analysis of the obtained results, a motivated proposal for reducing the risk is made.
