Moving forward the Italian nursing education into the post-pandemic era: findings from a national qualitative research study
Background: During the CoronaVIrus-19 (COVID-19) pandemic, nursing education has been dramatically transformed and shaped according to the restrictions imposed by national rules. Restoring educational activities as delivered in the pre-pandemic era without making a critical evaluation of the transformations implemented, may sacrifice the extraordinary learning opportunity that this event has offered. The aim of this study was to identify a set of recommendations that can guide the Italian nursing education to move forward in the post-pandemic era. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was undertaken in 2022–2023 and reported here according to the COnsolidated criteria for REporting Qual…
Confirmation of the topology of the Wendelstein 7-X magnetic field to better than 1:100,000
Fusion energy research has in the past 40 years focused primarily on the tokamak concept, but recent advances in plasma theory and computational power have led to renewed interest in stellarators. The largest and most sophisticated stellarator in the world, Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X), has just started operation, with the aim to show that the earlier weaknesses of this concept have been addressed successfully, and that the intrinsic advantages of the concept persist, also at plasma parameters approaching those of a future fusion power plant. Here we show the first physics results, obtained before plasma operation: that the carefully tailored topology of nested magnetic surfaces needed for good c…
Transitare la formazione infermieristica italiana nel periodo post pandemico: le priorità alla luce delle lezioni apprese
Unlabelled: . Transitioning Italian nursing education in the post-pandemic period: priorities in the light of lessons learnt. Introduction: Once back to normalcy, many nursing education activities have been restored without an in-depth analysis of which transformations enacted in the pandemic period should be maintained and valued. Aim: To identify priorities to effectively transitioning nursing education in the post-pandemic period. Method: Descriptive qualitative design. A network of nine universities involved 37 faculty members, 28 clinical nurse educators and 65 students/new graduates. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews; the main priorities reported in each universit…
