With the rising demand for data skills across industries and disciplines, and the prevalence of data in all aspects and levels of our lives, it is critical to find new, more effective ways to develop students’ data literacies. Stories can be an accessible way for students to personally connect to, and think critically about, data and its implications. But how can data storytelling be effectively implemented into classroom settings, in which instruction is often constrained to focus narrowly on quantitative skills? This interactive poster session showcases eight innovations in data storytelling in the classroom. Together, the contributions consider the various facets and functions of stories for supporting data literacies in contexts that span K-12 to university. By seeking to define the value and roles of storytelling in data literacy learning, this session will inform ways to create more effective and engaging data literacy instruction.

The transnational phenomenon that was “1968” was felt keenly around the globe with
direct and virtually immediate impact. Turkey stands as a clear example, wherein the
development and dynamism of the “Western” student movement had an immediate
impact and shaped developments unfolding in Turkey at the time. As elsewhere in the
world, “1968” did not hit Turkey out of thin air. The “1968 generation,” and the student
movement in general, was mainly Kemalist, one of the significant characteristics
that differentiated it from others. It first emerged as a student movement focused on
reform within the university system, but toward the end of the 1960s, it evolved into a
revolutionary movement, eventually deploying revolutionary violence from 1971–72.

Excerpts of therapist-patient dialogue are presented to demonstrate three important elements of a successful session of psychodynamic therapy. These are the provision of insight through the use of transference, a focus on patient affect, and the therapist's attention to aspects of the therapeutic alliance. The article, in addition to explicating the clinical process in psychodynamic therapy, gives a theoretical explanation for the emphasis on each of these three elements and provides research support for their application.

The impact to the academic achievement of the university students' attendance to the courses was examined by many academic studies and it has been found that the success rates of the students attended to the courses are higher. Attendance statuses of students are tracked by classical methods in many higher education institutions. It is possible to track student attendance utilizing current information systems. In this paper, an attendance tracking system has been designed and developed by using contactless smart cards. Web applications for management of the system and tracking the student attendance have been developed. Tracking student attendance has become faster and more reliable with the system. The collected data is analyzed with the data-mining module integrated into this system, thus proactive measures can be taken and improvements can be made.

Self-Regulated Learning or SRL is an important academic performance for every student in completing a series of academic activities and realized by himself, especially in an online learning environment that is not supervised directly by the teacher. This research is an effort to develop a measuring instrument in the form of an SRL scale and called the SRLS based on three aspects according to the theory presented by Zimmerman. The purpose of this study is to produce a student SRL measurement tool in the online learning era in order to find patterns of student involvement in learning that can be applied by students to improve learning achievement. Respondents involved in this study amounted to 408 students of SMP/MTs grades VII to IX. Validation of items through an expert judgment process by experts in psychometry and psychology with the results of the content validity item (CVI) obtained is 0.68 to 1.00 and the reliability test results have a Cronbach alpha value of 0.893. The results of this research will provide benefits to identify patterns of student involvement in learning and generated guidelines for the use of the SSRL measuring instrument.

O objetivo foi identificar a influência gradativa desta terapia complementar de saúde no que se refere ao estado de ansiedade dos estudantes. A análise dos dados revelou uma redução estatisticamente significativa do estado de ansiedade em ambos os grupos, com pd&quot; 0,05.

Dans le courant des années 1980-1990, le processus de massification de l’enseignement supérieur s’est traduit par une forte augmentation des flux d’entrants dans l’enseignement supérieur. La croissance constante des taux de réussite au bac depuis les années 1980 (26 % d’une génération en 1980, 63 % en 1995 et 77 % en 2014) est notamment due à une progression de la réussite des bacheliers technologiques et professionnels, ce qui, du même coup, a entraîné une augmentation de l’entrée de ces « nouveaux étudiants »  dans l’enseignement supérieur. Ces évolutions quantitatives ont eu des conséquences sur la structuration et l’organisation de l’enseignement supérieur, avec une transformation « qualitative » des flux d’entrants et des orientations. S’est ainsi opérée une translation des processus de sélection scolaire, le type de baccalauréat obtenu devenant l’opérateur de la sélection dans l’entrée vers l’enseignement supérieur.

Accreditation of courses in tertiary institutions is mainly regarded as business to be executed by the management and teaching staff. This is done despite the fact that some students with practical industry experience may be knowledgeable on the subject matter, which lecturers and management might not have. There is no evidence of student involvement and participation in course design or review or other quality assurance activities in Lesotho tertiary institutions. It therefore is in the interest of this study to explore whether student input can be of significance to course design and content. The study also seeks to unveil the extent to which an all-inclusive approach should be adopted by tertiary institutions to ensure quality of course design and content. Qualitative methodology, in the form of in depth interviews and document analyses is going to be employed for this study.

The purpose of the current study is to determine the relationship between secondary and high school students' ecocentric, anthropocentric and antiphatic attitudes towards the environment and their academic achievement. The study was conducted with the participation of totally 854 students attending secondary and high schools in the city of Aksaray in the spring term of 2013-2014 school year. In the collection of the data, " Ecocentric, Anthropocentric and Antipathic Environmental Attitude Scale " developed by Thompson and Barton (1994) and adapted to Turkish by Erten (2007) was used. In the analysis of the data, one-way variance analysis and Pearson Correlation analysis were conducted. At the end of the study, a significant difference was found in the ecocentric attitude mean scores of the secondary school students in favor of the students having higher academic achievement (F=3.161; p<.05) and a significant difference was found in the antipathic attitude scores of the students in favor of those having lower academic achievement (F=14.700; p<.001). No significant difference based on the students' academic achievement was found in the students' anthropocentric attitude scores

Objective: Research has shown associations between college women's alcohol and/or drug consumption and the risk of sexual assault, but few studies have measured the various means by which sexual assault is achieved. Participants: The authors' Campus Sexual Assault Study obtained self-report data from a random sample of undergraduate women (N = 5,446). Methods: The authors collected data on sexual assault victimization by using a cross-sectional, Web-based survey, and they conducted analyses assessing the role of substance use. The authors also compared victimizations before and during college, and across years of study. Results: Findings indicate that almost 20% of undergraduate women experienced some type of completed sexual assault since entering college. Most sexual assaults occurred after women voluntarily consumed alcohol, whereas few occurred after women had been given a drug without their knowledge or consent. Conclusions: The authors discuss implications for campus sexual assault prevention programs, including the need for integrated substance use and sexual victimization prevention programming.

Understanding young adults&#39; anxiety requires applying a multidimensional approach to assess the psychosocial, behavioral, and cognitive aspects of this phenomenon. A hypothesized model of the relationships among coping style, thinking style, life satisfaction, social support, and selected demographics and anxiety among college students was tested using path analysis. A total of 257 undergraduate students aged 18-24 years completed an online survey. The independent variables were measured using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, the Brief Students&#39; Multidimensional Life Satisfaction Scale, the Brief COPE Inventory, the Positive Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire, and the Cognition Checklist-Anxiety. The outcome, anxiety, was measured using the Anxiety subscale of the 21-item Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale. Only negative thinking and maladaptive coping had a direct relationship with anxiety. Negative thinking was the strongest predictor of both maladapt...

There is little doubt that family factors can influence involvement in delinquency, although the full nature and extent of their influences remain unclear. In recent decades, testosterone has been increasingly implicated as a contributor to adolescent offending. The present study sought to determine whether two important types of familial factors--parental socioeconomic status and amicable parent-child relationships--are interacting with testosterone (and possibly other androgens) to affect delinquency. A large sample of North American college students self-reported their involvement in eight categories of delinquency along with self-ratings of various androgen-promoted traits (e.g., muscularity and low-deep voice), parental social status, and the quality of the relationships they had with parents. In both sexes, parent-child relationships and androgens were significantly associated with delinquency but parental social status was not. Factor analysis revealed that the authors&#39; m...

Asian American Pacific Island college students (N = 93) completed measures of acculturation and mental health worldview, in the form of beliefs about the likely causes of 24 typical counseling presenting problems. A criterion sample of 27 staff from 2 university counseling centers reported their beliefs about the most likely cause of the same 24 problems for a typical client. A response similarity index was calculated, with higher scores reflecting greater similarity between student and counselor mental health worldviews. Results suggest that higher acculturation was associated with greater level of match between the students&#39; etiology beliefs and those of counselors. The greatest differences were observed for serious personal problems, whereas there was more belief convergence about causes of academic problems.

Wprowadzenie. Wirusowe zapalenie wątroby (WZW) typu C stanowi
poważny problem epidemiologiczny dla ludności całego świata. Z uwagi na
to, że nie ma szczepionki chroniącej przed tym zakażeniem, profilaktyka tej
choroby polega głównie na informowaniu populacji o drogach zakażenia,
czynnikach ryzyka zwiększających możliwość zakażenia oraz możliwościach
zapobiegania zakażeniom wirusem HCV.
Cel badań. Ocena wiedzy na temat WZW typu C wśród studentów
Uniwersytetu Medycznego w Łodzi i studentów Politechniki Łódzkiej.
Materiał i metody. Badanie zrealizowano w 2014 r. przy użyciu
kwestionariusza ankiety wśród 134 studentów Zdrowia Publicznego
Uniwersytetu Medycznego i wśród 118 studentów kierunku Zarządzanie
Politechniki Łódzkiej. Kwestionariusz ankiety zawierał pytania dotyczące
typów WZW, szczepionek przeciw WZW, głównych dróg zakażenia wirusem
HCV, grup podwyższonego ryzyka zakażeń wirusem HCV, objawów i powikłań
WZW typu C oraz możliwości leczenia tej choroby.
Wyniki. Wiedza respondentów na temat dróg zakażenia wirusem HCV była
zróżnicowana. 53,2% ogółu badanych zdawało sobie sprawę, że główną
drogą zakażenia wirusem HCV jest droga pozajelitowa. 88,5% badanych
wiedziało, że do zakażenia wirusem HCV może dojść przez kontakt
z zakażoną krwią. 78,2% ankietowanych wyraziło opinię, że wirusem można
zarazić się podczas zabiegów z użyciem zakażonego sprzętu medycznego.
Niemal 3/4 studentów objętych badaniem wiedziało, że w trakcie zabiegów
stomatologicznych, a także przekłuwania skóry i błon śluzowych w salonie
kosmetycznym, można zarazić się wirusem HCV.
Wnioski. W badanej próbie poziom wiedzy na temat zakażeń wirusem
HCV nie jest wystarczający. Badani studenci z Uniwersytetu Medycznego
wykazali się większą wiedzą, niż studenci Politechniki na temat tej choroby,
co najprawdopodobniej spowodowane jest specyfiką programu studiów.
Studenci mają świadomość, iż WZW typu C jest poważnym problemem
epidemiologicznym.
