The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has transformed the delivery of nursing education. This scoping review identified innovative improvements or changes in education developed by faculty response to COVID-19 pandemic globally. is a using Arksey and O’Malley framework, refined Joanna Briggs Institute. Three electronic databases were searched identify studies published between December 2019 ...

When a quantum field theory possesses topological excitations in a phase with spontaneously broken symmetry, these are created by operators which are non-local with respect to the order parameter. Due to non-locality, such disorder operators have non-trivial correlation functions even in free massive theories. In two dimensions, these correlators can be expressed exactly in terms of solutions o...

Participation in, or facilitation of, Family Group Conferences (FGCs) and hui-ā-whānau (family meetings) are key social work practice activities in Aotearoa New Zealand. Social students expected to graduate with the cultural competence necessary ethically whānau Māori according bicultural principles of Te Tiriti ō Waitangi. This includes skills joint decision making, shared responsibility use e...

This sociolinguistic study investigates the variation in pronunciation of variable (āʔ) variety Hatim, north-west Jordan. is studied relation to five factors: age, gender, education, outside contact and following linguistic environment. Data were collected via informal interviews. Sixty-four participants (30 males, 34 females) recorded spontaneously by researchers (duration=2227 minutes). Two v...

In the framework of the rest-frame instant form of tetrad gravity, where the Hamiltonian is the weak ADM energy ÊADM , we define a special completely fixed 3-orthogonal Hamiltonian gauge, corresponding to a choice of non-harmonic 4-coordinates, in which the independent degrees of freedom of the gravitational field are described by two pairs of canonically conjugate Dirac observables (DO) rā(τ, ...

We report a detailed study of two successive first-order transitions, including a martensitic transition (MT) and an antiferromagnetic (AFM)-ferromagnetic (FM)-like transition, in Mn1-xFexNiGe (x = 0, 0.06, 0.11) alloys by X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, magnetization and linear thermal expansion measurements. Such an AFM-FM-like transition occurring in the martensitic sta...
