Forskare slår larm till regeringen: Läget sämre i dag än före Tjernobylolyckan.Strålskyddsarbetet är i akut kris. Trots terrorhot med radioaktiva ämnen och allt fler mobiltelefoner som ökar riskerna med strålning i samhället tappar svensk strålskyddsforskning i kompetens. Situationen är sämre i dag än före kärnkrafts-olyckan i Tjernobyl. Regeringen har inte lyssnat på våra varningar. Sverige har hävdat sig bra på strålskyddsområdet i EU. Men nu hotar de svenska insatserna att krympa, i synnerhet som flertalet forskare går i pension de närmaste åren. Det skriver tolv ledande forskare, organisationstoppar och myndighetspersoner, däribland chefen för Strålskyddsinstitutet Lars-Erik Holm.
A chapter in Chico Whitaker's reflections on the future of the WSF International Council (2013) "But in all this the WSF is only an instrument. The subjects of the transformative action, towards the achievement of the ultimate goal of overcoming the globalized capitalist system, are the organizations and social movements, inserted in the whole of political actors fighting for "another possible world"."

EDUCAUSE Quarterly Magazine, Volume 32, Number 1, 2009 By Elizabeth J. Aspden and Louise P. Thorpe Learning environment development has been a key part of the Academic Innovation Team’s remit for a number of years at Sheffield Hallam University (see About Us). Beginning with our research into the impact of e-learning on the student experience in 2002 — and recognizing the way e-learning influenced students’ views of physical spaces — we started to look more closely at the ways in which our students and faculty use on-campus spaces, and at ways in which our environments needed to evolve. A recurring theme that emerged was the importance of serendipitous meetings and the ad hoc use of those "in between" times: in between taught sessions, in between focused study, in between study and home.

The transition from medical student to hospital-based first year junior doctor (termed “intern” in Australia) is known to be challenging, and recent changes in clinical learning environments may reduce graduate preparedness for the intern workplace. Although manageable challenges and transitions are a stimulus to learning, levels of burnout in junior medical colleagues are concerning. In order to prepare and support medical graduates, educators need to understand contemporary junior doctor perspectives on this transition.

Peer assisted learning (PAL) has been described as “the development of knowledge and skill through active help and support among status equals or matched companions”. To enhance the learning experience of health professions students and improve collaborative and collegial learning, six pilot Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) projects were conducted across a health science faculty in Australia.
Open access. In order to foster positive student experiences in the clinical learning environment, we wanted to better understand which teaching practices they regard highly.
Peer-assisted learning (PAL) increasingly features within medical school curricula. While there is evidence of its effectiveness, less is known about how it promotes learning. Cognitive and social congruence between peer-tutor and student have been described as important concepts underpinning teaching and learning in PAL. We employed interpretative phenomenological analysis for an in-depth exploration of how medical students experience PAL sessions.
