Impact of Frailty on Healthcare Outcomes after Cardioembolic Ischaemic Stroke Due to Atrial Fibrillation
Stroke due to atrial fibrillation (AF) is more common in older adults. Frailty is associated with AF. As little is known about the impact of frailty on cardioembolic stroke, we examined its association with important healthcare outcomes including mortality and functional outcome in stroke with AF. Data were collected from patients presenting consecutively to a regional university hospital to assess pre-admission frailty using the Clinical Frailty…
Frailty in an Adult Acute Hospital Population
Frailty is common among older hospital inpatients. While studies describe frailty prevalence in acute hospitals, it is usually based upon retrospective hospital-coded data or brief screening on admission rather than comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA). Further, little is known about differences between pre-admission and current frailty status. Given this, we investigated the prevalence of pre-frailty and frailty among adult inpatients in a l…
The role of feedback in building teaching presence and student self-regulation in online learning
In this research we studied usable strategies to promote student engagement and learning in the online classroom specifically connected to the development of teaching presence and student self-regulation. A design-based research approach (Barab & Squire, 2004) with multiple methods of data collection were used in the study's design, which was informed by the Garrison et al.’s Community of Inquiry framework and Zimmerman's cycle of self-regulatory…
“It feels like I have a camera in my eye”
This paper focuses on new data collection methods made possible through first person-perspective or point-of-view (POV) recording technology and how these tools can provide important insights into students’ digital making and learning processes. Observation is a powerful tool, but researchers and educators are limited in what they can observe during a given moment and their inferences about student learning are made through the lens of an “outsid…
Chilly Climate 2.0
This research examines the extent to which issues identified in Breaking Anonymity (The Chilly Collective, 1995) are still salient despite new EDI mandates/programs which support increased research excellence through EDI principles. We present survey results for Canadian academics who identify as women (n = 244) regarding their experiences with gender-based harassment and discrimination. Our analysis identified three categories of patriarchal gen…
Innovative Learning Spaces in the Making
This article details a qualitative, case study focusing on the affordances of innovative makerspaces for teaching and learning. The theoretical perspectives framing the research include embodied learning, materiality, neuroarchitecture and structuralism as it relates to power, inclusion and engagement within a learning space. Findings provide an overview of how the physical space (including the architecture of, and the furniture and materials wit…
Integrating Care and Improving Flow for Frail Older Adults through the Development of an Acute Inpatient Frailty Service
The International Journal of Integrated Care (IJIC) is an online, open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles in the field of integrated care on a continuous basis.IJIC has an Impact Factor of 5.120 (2020 JCR, received in June 2021)
Crossing Cultural Borders Through Ning
The aim of this mixed methods research study was to examine the construction of adolescents’ bi-cultural identities through an exploration of their social practices on the social networking site, Ning. More specifically, we ask: (1) how are new Canadian and first-generation adolescents’ bi-cultural identities shaped and performed as they use multimedia and social networking tools in their classroom; and (2) how can social networking tools help st…
