Laying Concrete Masonry01:16

Laying Concrete Masonry

388
Constructing a concrete masonry wall involves a series of steps designed to ensure durability, stability, and alignment. The construction starts with preparing the base, which includes cleaning the area where the wall will be erected. The next step involves spreading mortar where the first row of concrete blocks will be laid, typically starting at a corner section to help define the wall's boundaries.
Mortar application focuses on the face shells of the blocks, the sides that face outward,...

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation01:13

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation

918
Insufficient sleep refers to not getting the recommended amount of sleep for optimal functioning, even if it's just slightly less than needed. Sleep insufficiency may occur due to lifestyle choices, such as staying up late for social events or work, resulting in routinely getting less sleep than required. For example, consistently sleeping 6 hours when the body needs 7-9 hours can lead to cumulative effects on health and well-being.
Sleep deprivation is a more severe form of sleep loss...

Social Foundations of Self II: The Generalized Other

246
According to George Herbert Mead, as children progress beyond the game stage, they develop a more comprehensive understanding of societal rules and norms. This cognitive and social development enables them to internalize the expectations of the broader community, refining their ability to regulate behavior.Consistent participation in organized activities is crucial in helping children recognize that their actions are not isolated but contribute to a more significant, interconnected group...

Physiological Foundation of Stress01:24

Physiological Foundation of Stress

648
Stress triggers a coordinated physiological response involving the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. This dual activation ensures that the body is prepared for both immediate and prolonged stress management. The process begins with the perception of a stressor. This initial phase activates the SNS, leading to the rapid release of adrenaline (epinephrine) from the adrenal glands.

Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice

17.4K
Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

Social Foundations of Self I: Play and Game

205
The development of self in children is deeply rooted in social interactions, mainly through stages of play and structured games. These stages, outlined by sociologist George Herbert Mead, illustrate how children progressively learn to understand and adopt social roles, forming a cohesive sense of self.The Play Stage: Imitation and Simple Role-TakingIn the early years of childhood, the play stage is characterized by imitative behavior, where children engage in role-playing based on familiar...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Sleep Health
  • Educational Psychology

Background:

  • Sleep difficulties affect many elementary school children (ages 5-12), impacting daytime functioning.
  • Sleep education is largely absent from school curricula, with limited evidence-based interventions available.
  • A needs assessment was conducted to address this gap and inform program development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the need for sleep education in elementary schools.
  • To gather teacher perspectives on student sleep, educational needs, and program delivery.
  • To evaluate the suitability of the 'ABCs of SLEEPING' storybook as a foundation for a sleep education program.

Main Methods:

  • Semi-structured virtual interviews with 14 elementary school teachers in Nova Scotia, Canada.
  • Teachers responded to 20 questions regarding student sleep, educational practices, and program needs.
  • Teachers reviewed the 'ABCs of SLEEPING' storybook, with themes analyzed via deductive thematic analysis.

Main Results:

  • All teachers recognized poor sleep's negative impact on student behavior and learning.
  • Teachers reported a significant lack of resources for delivering sleep education.
  • The 'ABCs of SLEEPING' storybook was deemed a viable program foundation, with suggestions for enhancements like family access, interactive elements, and age-appropriate adaptations.

Conclusions:

  • Findings will guide the development of an elementary school sleep education program.
  • The 'ABCs of SLEEPING' storybook will serve as the program's core component.
  • Limitations include the need for greater sample diversity in future research.
