Optimizing learning & teaching on paediatric ward rounds by Mantzor, Savarra

“…The aim of this study was to improve the quality of ward round learning and teaching for University of Botswana medical trainees working in the Department of Paediatrics at Princess Maria Hospital in order to enhance their self-efficacy beliefs regarding their ability to provide paediatric patient care. Specifically, we utilized a threepronged approach to 1) improve trainees' participation in, and sense of belonging to, a local community of clinical practice, 2) introduce a structured bedside teaching model, and 3) promote a favourable clinical learning environment, all of which we postulated could improve trainees' selfefficacy beliefs. …”

On the performance optimization of reliable networked control systems by Halawa, Hassan Hesham

“…First, a fault-tolerant WNCS is proposed based on unmodified IEEE 802.11b implementing 1-out-of-3 controller level fault-tolerance utilizing a wired backbone. The interference tolerance of the system was quantified and certain performance optimizations were investigated in order to improve the overall system’s interference resilience. …”
