University Business Students As Charity Trustees: A Win-Win For All?, Carl Evans, Nigel Jackson

Plymouth Business School

Charities are facing a crisis in recruiting board trustees. Additionally, boards have been criticised for lacking diversity and being unrepresentative of society. The purpose of this paper is to propose a solution to the problem of trustee recruitment, by considering university business students as trustees. Through an analysis of advertised trustee jobs, the proposal is evaluated against degree subject benchmark statements. The findings identify some key person characteristics specified by charities when recruiting trustees. The generic criteria could be met by most students and many of the personal skills are developed by students while at university. However, to address some …

Improving Clinical Competence With Electronic Medical Record Training In Nursing Students: A Benchmark Study, Ashley Reddock

MSN Capstone Projects

Nursing students are required to do many clinical hours based on their program, the Board of Nursing and their accrediting body. During these clinicals, students are faced with challenges that cause safety concerns due to lack of exposure or knowledge regarding policies and procedures. What seems like a simple task, could be life altering because of inadequate competency.

Performing at an expected level of education and demonstrating integration of knowledge, skills, abilities, and judgement defines competency according to the American Nurses Association (ANA) (2018). Nursing programs are expected to produce competent students, and competent nurses upon graduation. Displaying competency in …

Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation Without The Pulmonary? A Benchmark Project, Fernando A. Rios

MSN Capstone Projects

Cardiac Arrest occurs outside of the hospital setting more than you think. According to MyCares.net, 15% of OHCA happened in a public setting in 2020. Even if you are a trained healthcare professional, it may not be accessible at times in these situations due to different factors such as equipment availability, trained assistance, etc... Having an alternative option to conventional mouth-to-mouth rescue breath CPR would encourage trained and untrained bystanders to perform life-saving interventions to patients until local EMS responders can arrive. The covid pandemic affected everyone inside and outside the medical world. The general population got a real …

Pre-Shift Mindfulness: An Evidence Based Practice Benchmark Project, Whitney Turner

MSN Capstone Projects

Although a nursing shortage has existed for some time, it seems there is currently a flight of both experienced and young clinicians from the bedside. Over the course of the Covid-19 pandemic, healthcare organizations have seen dramatic increases in turnover and vacancy rates, leading to severe staffing shortages and compromised patient care. Historically, nursing has been a caring, service driven profession, and a calling for millions of professionals. However, nurses are increasingly concerned with their personal wellbeing.

The term “burnout” appeared in the 1970s to describe the consequences of severe stress in “caring” professions, and include symptoms such as exhaustion, …

Influenza is a viral illness that occurs internationally and peaks in prevalence during the months of October to May. There are several types of influenza viruses: Influenza A, B, C, and D (CDC, 2023). Vaccines are available in the United States as early as the start of the flu season to those who wish to receive it. The influenza virus types covered by the annual flu vaccine include Influenzas A and B types (CDC, 2023). The influenza vaccine is recommended by the CDC with the intent to limit the occurrence and spread of influenza each year. Symptoms of influenza consist …

The United States And The Need For An Improved Global Citizenship In The Twenty-First Century: How History Shaped Our Identity As A Nation, Karin Mika

Cleveland State Law Review

This Article describes how accidents of geography and history enabled the United States to become the global power that it has become. It examines how the extended warring in Europe during the Eighteenth and Nineteenth century allowed the United States to develop as a country without the repeated necessity of continually rebuilding, as was happening in Europe. The Article explores how the isolation of the United States enabled it to develop continuity in its initially experimental political system—a continuity that was never available to Europe. These factors enabled the United States to be in the position of being able to …

Thunderfort, Lever Stewart

Master of Arts in Professional Writing Capstones

Thunderfort is a tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) that utilizes both synchronous and asynchronous communication in both its rules and its fictitious setting. This project seeks to provide a unique TTRPG experience that is partially or fully digital, played out via text chatting and digital dice rolling. Such a game is also intended to be enjoyed by players without said players needing to worry about game session scheduling conflicts, since a large part of the game is played via digital, asynchronous communication. The full, most up-to-date text can also be accessed at thunderfort.lsflegal.com.

Phi-1, An Endogenous Inhibitor Protein For Protein Phosphatase-1 And A Pan-Cancer Marker, Regulates Raf-1 Proteostasis, Jason Kirkbride, Garbo Nilsson, Jee In Kim, Kosuke Takeya, Yoshinori Tanaka, Hiroshi Tokumitsu, Futoshi Suizu, Masumi Eto

Kimmel Cancer Center Faculty Papers

Raf-1, a multifunctional kinase, regulates various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration, by phosphorylating MAPK/ERK kinase and interacting with specific kinases. Cellular Raf-1 activity is intricately regulated through pathways involving the binding of regulatory proteins, direct phosphorylation, and the ubiquitin-proteasome axis. In this study, we demonstrate that PHI-1, an endogenous inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1 (PP1), plays a pivotal role in modulating Raf-1 proteostasis within cells. Knocking down endogenous PHI-1 in HEK293 cells using siRNA resulted in increased cell proliferation and reduced apoptosis. This heightened cell proliferation was accompanied by a 15-fold increase in ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Importantly, the observed …

Imaheng Transnasyonal: Mga Paglalarawan Ng Kalagayang Panlipunan Ng Mga Migranteng Pilipino Sa Mga Likha At Praktikang Pansining Nina Pacita Abad, Nathalie Dagmang, At Alfredo At Isabel Aquilizan, Gian Carlo Delgado

Katipunan

Ang sining bilang produkto ng kasanayan ay itinuturing din na bahagi ng usapin ng paggawa. Kaugnay nito, ang Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) bilang bahagi ng lakas-paggawa sa kontemporanyo ay nagsisilbi ring paksa sa mga likhang-sining at praktikang pansining sa kasalukuyan, pati na sa mga pananaliksik o personal na sanaysay kung saan mahalagang salik ang pandarayuhan. Sa pag-aaral na ito nilalayong suriin ang sining biswal bilang materyal sa malikhaing pagpapahayag ng damdamin at bilang mahalagang bahagi sa representasyon at materyalisasyon ng karanasang migrante.

Mapa Ng Los Baños Patungo Sa ‘Yo, Vincent Imbat

Katipunan

Ang mga akdang itinuturing na pamantayan sa kung ano ang panitikan ay madalas na may katangian ng pagiging tapos, ganap, buo, at nailimbag sa papel. Iniaalok ng hybrid na malikhaing akdang “Mapa ng Los Baños Patungo Sa ‘yo” at ang kakabit nitong sanaysay ang isang alternatibong pagtingin sa kung ano ang literatura at kung paano maaaring isapraktika ang malikhaing pagsulat sa isang post-print na mundo. Nagpapaanyaya ang akdang ibalik ang pagsusulat sa mala-borador nitong katangian, isang katangiang kumikiling sa pagtanaw sa pagsusulat bilang isang dinamikong prosesong nagluluwal ng mga sulating hindi tapos at solido, bagkus ay patuloy na kumikilos, nagbabago, …

Sensoradong Konsumérebyu: Mga Sampol, Tilde Acuña

Bahagi ang akdang “sensoradong konsumérebyu: mga sampol” ng mas masaklaw na proyektong may tentatibong pamagat na konsumérebyu. Nagsimula ito noong niligalig ang bansa ng sabayang bigwas ng pandemya at pasismo. Bahagi ng proyekto ang mga set na siya namang binubuo ng lima o higit pang mga screenshot na may itinatakdang “constraint” o kaya’y tema. Sa set na ito, ang mga rebyung “hidden” (hindi lang nakatago kundi itinago ng app) ang palilitawin. Muling nagkaespasyo ang mga rebyung iwinala o itinago (sadya man ng tao o awtomatisado ng programa) sa konstruksiyon ng manuskrito ng “sensoradong konsumérebyu: mga sampol,” kung saan sila makapagpaparamdam. …

Bisperas, Glenn Diaz

Katipunan

Tangkang ilatag sa talang ito ang konteksto at proseso sa likod ng pagsusulat ng maikling kuwentong “Bisperas.” Sa akda, naging lunsaran ng sari-sari at maligoy na pagninilay ang bisperas ng inagurasyon ni Bongbong Marcos bilang pangulo. Binigyang-diin din sa tala ang ilang pormal na katangian ng kuwento, gaya ng tuloy-tuloy na pagsalaysay, paggamit sa mga estratehiya at aparato ng kuwento at sanaysay, at self-reflexive na pag-usisa sa nosyon ng naratibo. Tampok sa mga ito ang pagkilala sa mas mahabang kasaysayan ng panunumbalik ng mga Marcos at sa pangkalahatan ay tangkang lumikha ng espasyo para maghain ng malikhaing tugon sa panlipunang …

Ademas, Ahora, Entonces:Misrekognisyon Bilang Pigurasyon, Floraime O. Pantaleta

Katipunan

Tinatangkang maimapa ng maikling sanaysay ang pag-unlad ng praktis ng multilingguwal na pagsusulat tungo sa “geopoetika” ng misrekognisyon bilang pigurasyon. Nagagabayan ng nosyon ng kalabuan bilang ontolohikong posisyon ni Edouard Glissant, sinusubok patingkarin ang mga relasyon sa panulat at mambabasang Filipino kaugnay ng mga tanong sa paglikha ng halo-halo, plurilingguwal, at eksperimental na mga espasyo sa pampanitikang produksiyon sa Pilipinas na sumasalungat sa umiiral na pamamayani ng mga puristikong nosyon ng wikang ginagamit sa malikhaing pagsulat. Ang akdang napapamagatang “ademas, ahora, entonces” at iba pa ay inilakip upang mailarawan ang mga posibilidad sa uri ng panulat na tinitingnan ang polysemy …

Imperyo Bilang Paghahari Ng Digma At Pasismo, Nerissa S. Balce

Binabalikan ng kasalukuyang artikulo ang gawa ng mga iskolar na nag-aaral tungkol sa Pilipinas at diasporang Pilipino. Nililinaw ang dalawang lapit sa pag-aaral sa imperyo ng Estados Unidos o sa marahas na kolonyalismo ng mga Americano sa Pilipinas matapos ang Digmaang Pilipino-Americano (1899-1902). Una, nariyan ang nosyon ng imperyo bilang politikal na idea. Pangalawa, nariyan ang nosyon ng imperyo bilang kultura o mga kabilang buhay ng imperyo na mababakas sa mga kultural na anyo na inakda o nilikha ng mga “suheto ng imperyal na pananakop.” Higit na binibigyang-tuon ng artikulo ang kaso ng araling Filipinx, kung saan tinutukoy ng …
