This paper focuses on the impact of employability-oriented modules on the design, planning, and implementation of work transitions. It takes its lead from the PRIN EMP&Co project developed by the University of Florence in 2014-2017, and how its research protocol allows a mapping of the construction of employability during the Master’s Degree Course

This paper contains our reflection on the experience held at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Florence (Italy) in many courses in Pedagogical Disciplines for the Bachelor's and Master's degree that have involved more than 1000 students. I think that if the reflective habits are presented in an early stage of students' training they can contribute to form a habit of mind that will accompany their professional biography. Therefore, we have chosen to focus on reflexivity as a primary educational strategy to enter into relationship with one's professional task. This has prompted us to build compelling educational opportunities that ‘expose' the students' minds to issues/problems/contradictions that are present in their everyday experiences of practitioners and students. The reflective laboratories and their public discussion introduce to a ‘familiarity with the exercise of reflection' through which students can learn to take themselves as subjects/objects of their knowledge and to recognize the contradictions and automatisms that appear in their professional action. These reflective modes start to training to a new idea of Medical Professionalism. This does not reduce professional action to linear sequences of activities, but have to recover also specific human qualities from professional epistemologies and responsibility

In this article, we focus on film making as a part of craft studies and narrative inquiry. Short films were created in a course in the craft teacher master’s degree at the University of Helsinki. The aim of the course was to serve several purposes such as 1) to enable students to become familiar with a new way of deepening conceptual thinking through making, 2) to apply and develop craft skills in working on a selected concept or theme, and 3) to understand the dialogue between conceptual and material artefacts. We explore the opportunities to transmit multisensory experiences via short films. For illustration, we introduce two short films created during the course. Using the deliberative interviewing method, we have broadened the perspective on reflective and analytical level.

In this chapter, we outline the process that led to the development of the current traineeship programme − Tirocinio Formativo e di Orientamento (TFO) related to the Master’s Degree Course in Education at the University of Milan-Bicocca. We focus particularly on the interconnection between developing professional competences and addressing the issue of employability

Рассмотрены особенности проявления оценочной тревожности, конструктивных и деструктивных компонентов ответственности у обучающихся вуза физической культуры. Представлены результаты дисперсионного анализа, свидетельствующие о влиянии этапа обучения на проявление оценочной тревожности и ответственности. Проведён корреляционный анализ показателей обучающихся 1-го и 4-го курса бакалавриата и 2-го курса магистратуры разного пола для определения взаимосвязей между показателями тревожности и ответственности. The features of the manifestation of evaluative anxiety, constructive and destructive components of responsibility in students of the university of physical culture are considered. The results of the analysis of variance are presented, indicating the influence of the learning stage on the manifestation of evaluative anxiety and responsibility. A correlation analysis of the indicators of students of the 1st, 4th year of bachelor's degree and 2nd year of master's degree of different genders was carried out to determine the relationships between the indicators of anxiety and responsibility.

They are an integral part of life, yet many people avoid the topics of dying, death and mourning. All the more remarkable, then, that the University of Regensburg has been offering a master's degree program since the 2020/21 winter semester that explicitly addresses these existential areas. The course of study "Perimortal Sciences: dying, death and mourning interdisciplinary" is unique in Germany. It is led by Rupert M. Scheule, Professor of Moral Theology, who also helped develop the concept. He related to Petra Hemmelmann, editor of Communicatio Socialis, who decides for this unusual course of study, their reasons for doing so and what the students learn and discuss there.

The introduction of the College's Membership Examination in 1971 created a dilemma for the university departments which had previously provided postgraduate teaching for a Diploma in Psychological Medicine. For it was clear that the MRCPsych would soon become a mandatory qualification for anyone wishing to pursue a psychiatric career, at least in this country, and that consequently there would no longer be a useful role for these diplomas. The universities concerned therefore had to choose between letting their diplomas die, or converting them into something other than a basic clinical qualification. The University of Edinburgh, like the Institute of Psychiatry and one or two other departments, decided to replace its DPM with a master's degree (M.Phil) in psychiatry which would be primarily an academic and research qualification, complementing rather than rivalling the College Membership.

William Tutte, born in Newmarket, completed a master’s degree in chemistry at Cambridge at the end of 1940, whereupon he was recruited to work at Bletchley Park as a cryptographer. He became the primary person responsible for breaking the Fish code used for high-level Army communication. After the war he returned to Cambridge as a Fellow of Trinity College, for three years of study for a PhD in mathematics. On completing his degree in 1948, he joined the Faculty of the University of Toronto, where he rose to pre-eminence in combinatorics. In 1962 he moved to the University of Waterloo, where he had a significant role in the development of the university and its Faculty of Mathematics.

The circular relationship of press, public and elected officials is demonstrated by this study of Oregon legislative coverage. Mr. Valleau received the first master's degree “with honors” ever awarded by the University of Oregon School of Journalism. He is now editor of the El Centro (Calif.) Imperial Valley Press.
