A maternity care course component and evaluation.

Abstract

A Maternity Care Component for Nursing Students has been developed within the Department of Nursing Studies in the University of Edinburgh, utilising an educational approach well-established within the Department. This paper describes the Component and its evaluation, which suggests that fears about certain problems were not justified and that all groups involved in the programme were satisfied with the way in which it operated. There may even have been certain benefits which had not been anticipated.

Myco-Ed: Mycological curriculum for education and discovery.

Fungi are important and hyperdiverse organisms, yet chronically understudied. Most fungal clades have no reference genomes, impeding our understanding of their ecosystem functions and use as solutions in health and biotechnology. Also, opportunities for training in fungal biology and genomics are lacking, creating a bottleneck that hinders the recruitment and cultivation of a talented future mycological workforce. To address these issues, we developed Myco-Ed, an educational program offering training and scientific contributions through genome sequencing and analysis. Myco-Ed empowers students to pursue careers in fungal biology while improving fungal resources. Myco-Ed has been piloted at 12 institutions (15 classrooms) ranging from online e-Campuses to R1 universities, resulting in hundreds of fungal observations and many new high-quality reference genomes.
