The Unintentional Effects on Body Donation Programs of a Competency-Based Curriculum in Postgraduate Medical Education

As medical programs place increasing importance on competency-based training and surgical simulations for residents, anatomy laboratories, and body donation programs find themselves in a position of adapting to changing demands. To better assess the demand for “life-like” cadaveric specimens and evaluate the possible impacts that competency-based medical education could have upon the body donation program of McGill University, Canada, the authors tracked, over the course of the last 10 years, the number of soft-embalmed specimens, along with the number of teaching sessions and the residents enrolled in competency-based programs that are using cadaveric material. The results reveal that the number of soft-embalmed specimens used within residency training increased from 5 in 2009 to 35 in 2019, representing an increase from 6% of bodies to 36.5% of the total number of body donors embalmed in this institution. Correspondingly, the number of annual teaching sessions for residents increased from 19 in 2012 to 116 in 2019. These increases in teaching are correlated with increasing number of residents enrolled in competency-based programs over the last 3 years (Pearson r ranging from 0.9705 to 0.9903, and R² ranging from 0.9418 to 0.9808). Those results suggest that the new skill-centered curricula which require residents to perform specific tasks within realistic settings, exhibit a growing demand for “life-like” cadaveric specimens. Institutions’ body donation programs must, therefore, adapt to those greater need for cadaveric specimens, which presents many challenges, ranging from the logistical to the ethical.     

Performative technologies and teacher subjectivities: A conceptual framework

Critical educational literature suggests that an increased reliance upon performative technologies is currently transforming the very foundations from which teacher subjectivities are constructed. Arguably though, the number of studies pointing to this risk or tendency is considerably larger than the ones theorising why this should be the case. Further, in those cases where the relationship between performative technologies and teacher subjectivities is theorised, the psychological mechanisms that the technologies appeal to are seldom brought to the fore. Based on this, the purpose of this article is to theorise the psychological mechanisms that performative technologies appeal to and work through, by means of identifying, systematising and elaborating extant understandings of such mechanisms in the critical educational literature. The results are presented in the form of a conceptual framework (referred to as the CMIS-framework) which suggests that one and the same performative technology may play many different roles, where each such role appeals to and works through a particular psychological mechanism. Importantly, depending on the type of psychological mechanism that is appealed to, the CMIS-framework suggests that this will lead to teachers (un)consciously conducting particular forms of subjectivising work upon themselves, here referred to as compliance, mirroring, identification and self-realisation (CMIS).     

专家型体育教师的培养

国外，对专家型教师的研究已成为教育学界和心理学界的重点研究领域。国内，对此问题也相当重视，正在积极开展研究。在体育教学领域，开展有关专家型体育教师的研究，不仅对体育师资的培养和体育教师的进修培训具有现实的指导价值，而且对培养各级各类体育人才，加速我国体育事业的现代化进程也有着重要意义。借鉴心理学对专家型教师的研究成果，教学观摩、微型教学、教学决策训练、教学反思及教学研究是培养专家型体育教师的几条有效的措施和途径。

影响体育教师参与体育教育改革三要素的分析研究

体育教育改革最终需依赖体育教师参与执行,体育教师作为体育教育改革的要素,势必成为体育教育改革的对象与主体,这需要掌握体育教师参与体育教育改革的内在要素,并建立起使体育教师主动参与体育教育改革的促进系统。本研究就体育教师自身的改革与完善,体育教师主动参与性,体育教师参与体育教育改革的内在选择系统,体育教师参与体育改革的促进系统等方面进行了论述,揭示了影响体育教师参与体育教育改革的某些问题。

教师专业化背景下反思型体育教师培养模式

教师的专业化发展要求教师成为反思型教师,而反思型教师的成熟和发展离不开教育实践的锻炼和促进,只有将实践中反映出来的问题上升到理论层面加以反思,才能探寻到根源,使主体的合理性水平得到提升和拓宽.体育教师要坚持积极的自我反思与实践,以主体身份投入其中,扩大自己的专业视野,逐步养成教育反思的习惯,建立自我反思机制,成为反思型教师,同时促进教师专业化发展.
