DOI: https://doi.org/10.26565/2074-8922-2025-85-08 The article is dedicated to a retrospective analysis of the historical formation and development of information design, with the identification of guiding principles for its application in the activities of pedagogical workers within the domestic education system. The methods employed included: a historical-logical analysis of philosophical, psychological, pedagogical, and specialized literature on the problems of design development, as well as the systematization and generalization of the obtained information. In a situation of constant updating of educational content and the need for rational use of time in preparing learners, pedagogical design becomes a universal model of action. The main foundation for pedagogical design is information design. Information design, in its formation and development, has gone through certain stages and phases that can be characterized as "proto-design." However, in 1907, an industrial union of leading artists, engineers, and industrialists was founded in Germany. In fact, from this year, the rapid development of design began, which in the 1970s led to the emergence of the English term «information design», introduced to denote an interdisciplinary field of human research and practical activity. The application of information design in education and the development of multimedia educational products allows educators to: add illustrations to ready-made educational material to ensure more successful understanding and retention of this material and to motivate learners; activate the cognitive function of material presented in multimedia form, encouraging learners to participate in scientific research, independent information gathering, and the discovery of new knowledge. The principles of information design are vital for the effective transmission and understanding of educational information because they help create a clear and easy-to-use design, improve orientation within the information field, and simplify the comprehension of educational content. The guiding principles for information design are: emphasis (or highlighting), contrast, balance, alignment, repetition, and usability. Further research could consider the selection and classification of information design methods, as well as the development of organizational and pedagogical conditions for implementing information design into pedagogical practice.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has critical implications for mental health in children. This study examined how the COVID-19 lockdown affected sleep duration and anxiety symptoms in Chinese school-aged children and the bidirectional association between sleep and anxiety before and during the COVID-19 lockdown. A school-based longitudinal cohort study was conducted to examine the relationship between sleep duration and anxiety scores before and after the COVID-19 lockdown from January to May 2020. Generalized estimating equations model was used to identify variables that contributed to the changes in sleep duration. The bidirectional relationship between sleep duration and anxiety symptoms was explored by cross-lagged analysis. 7681 children completed two waves of surveys were included in the analysis. The daily exercise duration, anxiety symptoms, and sleep duration decreased significantly during the lockdown compared with that before the lockdown. Based on generalized estimating equations model, older age, secondary school, and higher anxiety scores of participants were positively associated with sleep duration, while female and no COVID-19 infection history were negatively associated with it. Cross-lagged analysis showed higher anxiety score of children before the lockdown was significantly associated with shorter sleep duration during the lockdown; and shorter sleep duration of children before the lockdown was also significantly associated with a higher anxiety score during the lockdown. Under the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were longitudinal, bidirectional associations between children’s anxiety symptoms and sleep duration. For school students, mental health services and sleep education should be considered in the daily health education curriculum.

A crescente problemática relacionada ao manejo e ao descarte inadequado de resíduos sólidos na sociedade contemporânea exige diferentes estratégias para promover uma conscientização e uma mudança de hábitos da população. Desse modo, a Educação Ambiental pode promover essa mudança de pensamento que, quando aliada a um jogo didático, pode proporcionar que o aluno atue livre e ativamente, tome decisões e resolva problemas, para aperfeiçoar e/ou desenvolver novos conhecimentos específicos. Por isso, a escola tem um papel fundamental para trabalhar com temas relacionados à Educação Ambiental. Neste contexto, este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar a aplicação do produto educacional CALCULECO nas turmas de 6º a 9º ano dos Anos Finais do Ensino Fundamental da rede pública do município de Júlio de Castilhos, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. A atividade foi desenvolvida em quatro turmas, nas disciplinas de Ciências e de Matemática. Constatou-se que os estudantes foram muito receptivos com a atividade, interagindo entre si e auxiliando os colegas a compreenderem as perguntas e os resultados das questões. Além disso, percebeu-se que a diversidade de idade entre os estudantes de uma mesma turma, que estavam fora da idade-série, não foi uma barreira, mas sim uma oportunidade de explorar as relações interpessoais dos estudantes. Assim, percebe-se que é muito importante incorporar alternativas inovadoras, dinâmicas e flexíveis no currículo escolar, proporcionando experiências significativas que preparam os alunos para além da sala de aula, mas para encarar os desafios da vida em sociedade.

This study examines the relationships among educational research, policy and practice from the historical and contemporary perspectives with the purpose of identifying strategies for better approaches to improving school practices. The research paper presents a brief history of educational research, challenges of rigor and quality of educational research, complexities of the relationships between researchers and practitioners, between policy makers and researchers, among research, policy and practice, and strategies to overcome the underlying constraints. Among the strategies are examinations into the options of the establishment of major research institutions that sort out what works best and provide standards of rigor for quality educational research; and the formulation of national education research policy that supports better forms of partnership and collaboration among policy makers, researchers and practitioners. To this end, the study explores some experiences from the U.S., Europe and others, and demonstrates how these experiences can be used as valuable lessons to advance a culture of partnership and collaboration among policy makers, researchers, and practitioners to improve education of the Ethiopian schools. The conclusions of the paper underline the need for the three parties to work as a team for the common goal of improving the quality of education that can contribute to the development of the country.

A primary aim of science education is to teach students how to interpret and engage with scientific information. To do so effectively requires an adequate understanding of the nature of science (NOS)—in other words, what science is and how it works. There is a long history of evidence to suggest that many undergraduate students struggle to properly understand NOS. While the specific factors contributing to misinformed views on NOS may be difficult to tease apart, the way in which students learn about science at the undergraduate level is a significant contributor. We implemented a reflection activity in a unique first-year program at a large Canadian university in order to promote student learning of NOS. Through the students’ reflections, we identified how certain pedagogical approaches, many of which deviate from traditional teaching methods used throughout undergraduate science education, can positively impact student comprehension of NOS. Our experiences support the use of reflective practices in promoting critical thinking and the development of more nuanced student views of NOS.

Objectives: Family history is considered as an important predictor of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes. Available research findings suggest that family history of chronic diseases is associated with perceived risk of disease and adoption of healthy behaviours. We examined the association between family history of cardio-metabolic diseases (CMDs) and healthy behaviours among adults without self-reported CMDs. Methods: Cross-sectional data of 12,484 adults, without self-reported CMDs, from the baseline survey of Centre for cArdiometabolic Risk Reduction in South-Asia (CARRS) cohort study were analysed. Results: Family history was positively associated with non-smoking and high fruits & vegetables consumption in the age group of 45–64 years and moderate to high physical activity in the age group ≥65 years after adjusting for sex, education, wealth index, city and body mass index. Conclusions: Understanding perceived risks and cultural or psychological factors related to family history through ethnographic studies may deepen understanding of these associations.

Endometriosis is a chronically painful, invasive, inflammatory disease, with limited treatment options and long delays to diagnosis, which impacts 10% of females in New Zealand.IntroductionAs part of a larger group discussion study, this paper covers three themes associated with endometriosis patient experiences: intensity of pain, diagnostic tool shortcomings and perspectives of treatment options.Materials and methodsThe goal of this research was the inclusion of patient voices to guide research priorities. In early 2022, 50 New Zealand endometriosis patients participated in anonymous, asynchronous, text-based group discussions on the VisionsLive platform. The patients ranged in age from 18–48. The patients answered 50 questions, 23 text-based and 27 quantitative, and then took part in online group discussions.Results and discussionThe average age of symptom onset was 15.3 years, while the average delay from symptom onset to a working or surgically confirmed diagnosis was 7.91 years. The top five reported symptoms within the cohort were pain-based, and the participants discussed the many impacts of this pain on their work and education. The four main diagnostic tools employed on this cohort were abdominal ultrasound (72%), transvaginal ultrasound (68%), laparoscopy (82%) and sharing their symptom history with a medical practitioner (88%). The most common emotions patients experienced following receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis were relief (86%), feeling overwhelmed (54%), and anger (32%). The main treatments offered to this cohort were pain relief (96%), laparoscopic surgery (84%) and the combined oral contraceptive pill (80%). Of these three treatments, only laparoscopic surgery was viewed positively by the majority of users, with 67% considering laparoscopy an effective treatment, compared to 46% of users for pain relief, and 25% of users for the combined oral contraceptive pill.ConclusionsGathering the voice of patients revealed that long delays to diagnosis and dismissal by medical practitioners frequently manifests as a reaction of relief by patients once diagnosed. Results also showed treatment options such as pain relief and hormonal medications were often considered ineffective, but were routinely offered as the first, or only, options for patients. It is therefore important that both quicker routes to diagnosis and more effective treatment options be developed.

Introduction: The prevalence of personal hygiene behavior in the Riau community in 2018 remains below 39.9%. Therefore, this study aims to identify the determinants of personal hygiene in preventing Covid19 among the residents of Bengkalis Regency, Riau. Methods: Data was collected online in March 2021 from 214 respondents regarding their age, gender, educational history, personal hygiene, infrastructure, accessibility, information exposure, family support, social support, and level of knowledge. The descriptive quantitative study was used with a cross-sectional design and the Chi-square test. Results and Discussion: The results showed that from 214 respondents, those with good and poor personal hygiene are 139 (65%) and 75 (35%) individuals, respectively. The factors that have a statistical relationship with personal hygiene (p<0.05) are age, gender, infrastructure, accessibility, information exposure, family support, and social support, with p-values of 0.000, 0.005, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000, and 0.000, respectively. Meanwhile, variables of knowledge and educational history with p values of 0.664 and 0.810, respectively, were not statistically related. Conclusion: Efforts to promote personal hygiene for the prevention of the pandemic include health worker education on Covid19 information, especially the risk factors and how to correctly use masks.
