The school nurse development program: an experiment in off-site delivery.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a teleconferenced program by comparing multiple program outcomes of learners enrolled at three off-campus sites to Chicago-based learners. An adaptation of the Stake (1967) countenance model guided the evaluation. The data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, cross-tabulations, and content analyses of comments. The results indicated no statistical differences between groups in grade point average, satisfaction with the program generally or with the teleconferencing process, tenure in school nursing, job stability, adoption of management strategies, and school health programs directed to aggregates.

A research development program for minority honors students.

This article describes an experiential undergraduate honors research program for minority students. Through a participatory and mentoring process students are able to complete a research project, present it at a national colloquium, and prepare it for publication in a 2-year program. A review of the literature on different methods to teach research was presented. The outcome of the project suggests the model was highly successful in achieving its goals.

Preventing adolescent drug abuse and high school dropout through an intensive school-based social network development program.

Purpose. The hypothesis tested was that experimental subjects, relative to controls, would demonstrate significant increases in school performance and decreases in drug involvement at program exit (5 months) and at follow-up (10 months). Design. A two-group, repeated-measures, intervention trial was the design used. Setting. The study involved four urban Northwest high schools. Subjects. Participants included 259 youth at high risk of potential school dropout, 101 in the experimental group and 158 in the control group. Intervention. The Personal Growth Class experimental condition was a one-semester, five-month elective course taken as one of five or six regular classes. It had a 1:12 teacher-student ratio, and integrated group support and life-skills training interventions. The control condition included a regular school schedule. Measures. School performance measures (semester GPA, class absences) came from school records. Drug use progression, drug control, and adverse consequences were measured by the Drug Involvement Scale for Adolescents. Self-esteem, school bonding, and deviant peer bonding were measured using the High School Questionnaire: Inventory of Experiences. All multi-item scales had acceptable reliability and validity. Results. As predicted, trend analyses revealed significantly different patterns of change over time between groups in drug control problems and consequences; in GPA (but not attendance); and in self-esteem, deviant peer bonding, and school bonding. The program appeared to stem the progression of drug use, but group differences only approached significance. Conclusion. Program efficacy was demonstrated particularly for decreasing drug control problems and consequences; increasing GPA and school bonding; and desired changes in self-esteem and deviant peer bonding. Program effects on progression of drug use were less definitive.

Current status of education and training in occupational health and their development programs in China.

There are 40 post graduate schools of public health in China, from where 1,400 students are graduating every year. Fourteen percent of them are going into occupational health field. A total of about 25,000 specialists are now working in the occupational health field. However, this number is only 1 percent of all health workers in China. Facts on the educational resources in China including responsible institutions and programs for such occupational health specialists are introduced and discussed. Finally a program for increasing the number of occupational health specialists in the Eighth Five-year Plan of China is introduced.

In-house CT program development.

"Accomplishing in-house CT maintenance can be a lengthy process," warns the author speaking from his own experience at the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. However, Mr. Brown insists that the payoff can be substantial in terms of significant cost savings and decreased downtime. His step-by-step advice and documentation are structured to help managers interested in investigating this option.
