Creating an innovation‐oriented technology strategy
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore technology strategies and policies in the areas of standards, repositioning of technology, and service‐oriented architecture that focus on enabling innovation while retaining coherence and viability. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses the concepts of shearing layers and Personal Learning Environments to define appropriate boundaries between individual, departmental, institutional, national, …
Evolution and its discontents
Purpose This paper seeks to describe the evolution of the web outside academia and the Academy's struggle both to adapt and to cope, and to recommend policy changes vis‐à‐vis the barriers to innovation in the higher education market. Design/methodology/approach The paper first describes the evolution of the web and the Academy's struggle and goes on to deal with breaking down the barriers to openness and monetization. Findings The paper finds tha…

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to consider the pedagogical, disciplinary, and institutional implications of social media for higher education. Design/methodology/approach The paper examines current theories on educational technology and social media in the context of specific social media (Second Life and iTunesU) used in pilot programs. Findings The paper finds that social media dramatically alter the material contexts in which we make dec…
Social ePortfolios as the new course management system
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show the practicality of a new portfolio design that incorporates distributed content, emphasizes student ownership, encourages social learning, and acknowledges the central importance of ease of use. Design/methodology/approach The approach's practicality is demonstrated through survey results and usage logs from two case studies. Findings Students enjoy using this system, and report that its social aspect…
An agile approach to managing open educational resources
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show that pointing to patterns of change in the adoption and institutionalization of educational resources, the appropriateness of traditional heavy and front‐loaded planning and management regimes is challenged in favor of alternative Agile Methods. Design/methodology/approach Starting from the simple observation that the original introduction of Course Management Systems to support online learning was ad …
Introduction to the special issue on distributed learning environments
Using learning environments as a metaphor for educational change
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show that the online learning environment can be seen as the means by which higher education can explore the challenges and opportunities raised by online and digital society. Design/methodology/approach The paper argues that the online learning environment can be seen as a metaphor for how universities respond to the requirements and challenges of the digital age. Current learning management systems (LMSs)…
Older Patients?? Health Status and Satisfaction With Medical Care in an HMO Population
Few studies have examined the relationship between older patients' satisfaction with medical care and their health status, and none of these investigations has been based at an HMO. To examine this question, data on 532 patients older than 70 years in an HMO were analyzed. Patients' reports of satisfaction with medical care were examined in relation to several dimensions of health status (based on self-reports, chart data, and physicians' ratings…
Chapter 1. Prevalence of Psychiatrist-Patient Sexual Contact
(Perceptions of control, competence, and contingency as influences on the stress)ehavior symptom relation in school-age children
Analyzed data from 154 school-age children and their mothers to examine the relations between stress, perceived competence and contingency, and behavior symptoms. Analyses focused on the relative merits of unidimensional vs multidimensional measures of control in predicting symptoms. The stress of undesirable life events and behavior symptoms were related in the expected direction. Multiple regression models with R2 ranging from .11 to .14 (all p…
Perceptions of control, competence, and contingency as influences on the stress-behavior symptom relation in school-age children
Efficacy of a Brief Psychosocial Intervention for Symptoms of Stress and Distress Among Patients in Primary Care
Psychosocial problems and symptoms of emotional distress play a prominent role in patients reporting to primary care settings. Interpersonal counseling (IPC) was developed as a brief psychosocial intervention for patients with stress and distress to be administered by nurse practitioners in a primary care setting. The results of a pilot study indicate more rapid reduction of symptoms and improvement in emotional symptoms and psychosocial function…
Temperament as a moderator of children's stressful experiences
Data on 158 children, six and nine years old, are analyzed for the relationship between stress and behavior. Undesirable life events and intense "hassles" were particularly correlated with behavioral symptoms. Statistically, temperament appears to moderate this influence but, lacking appreciable variance of symptoms in the models including these interaction effects, the more parsimonious main-effects concept may be more useful
Reporting practices of psychiatrists who knew of sexual misconduct by colleagues
Of 1423 psychiatrists responding to a national survey, 65% reported treating patients who had been sexually involved with previous therapists. Respondents saw these prior involvements as harmful in 87% of cases but reported the sexual abuse in only 8% of cases. The majority, however, favored mandatory reporting of such incidents. The problem of underreporting and the need for effective management of sexual abuse cases are discussed
Measuring children's coping
Using a transactional model of stress and coping, a measure of children's coping is offered and applied in a semi-structured interview in which specific coping styles are assessed. Data from 176 school-age children yielded findings on age and gender differences along with other preliminary suggestions of the validity of the instrument
A Controlled Study of the Impact of Mental Health Treatment on Medical Care Utilization
The authors report on a controlled examination of the effects of mental health intervention on the use of medical services in a health maintenance organization. Thirty-six patients were randomly assigned, after initial evaluation, either to begin immediately short-term (15 weekly session) group therapy or for those same 15 weeks to remain on a waiting list. The results seemed to indicate that both patients treated immediately and patients who wer…
