Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the process of developing an alternative physical education program using restorative justice practices as a transformative approach to social–emotional learning. Method: This study utilizes qualitative case study methods to examine the implementation process and short-term outcomes. Data sources include focus group interviews, student journals, observations, and reflective field notes. Trustworthiness of the findings are supported by triangulation, peer debriefings, prolonged engagement, and external program reviews. Results: The implementation of social and emotional learning was substantiated by student engagement with four class goals in which they aimed to participate in physical education as “champions,” “heroes,” “achievers,” and “peacemakers.” Restorative pedagogy included restorative chats, listening circles, community circles, and healing circles. Conclusion: This study suggests that transformative curriculum, such as restorative justice, offers a transformative approach to social and emotional learning that is applicable to physical education.

The methods of data exchange between CAD and CAE systems are described. The first method is using direct conversion, the second method is using neutral formats. The description of the modular system for designing and analysis the strength and stability of single-contour and double-contour geodesic shells GeoTran is given. The direct translation of geometric models from ArchiCAD to Patran/Nastran / Dytran has the disadvantage of having to develop translators for each data exchange scheme. It is proposed to implement the translation of geometric models in a neutral STEP format, which reduces the number of required translators. It is noted that the STEP format is recognized by various CAE systems that implement the finite element method (Autodesk Mechanical Desktop, Bentley Microstation, CATIA V4, CATIA V5, MSC Patran/Nastran, UGS PLM Solutions NX). The characteristics of the OBJ format used for storing a geometric model in the ArchiCAD CAD system and the STEP format used for data exchange with CAE systems are studied. A translator of geometric models of single-contour geodesic shells from ArchiCAD to STEP format in the Visual Basic programming language has been developed. For this purpose a syntactically oriented approach was used. The translator has a graphical user interface that makes it easier to use. The translator allows you to automate the exchange of data between the ArchiCAD CAD system and various CAE systems designed for strength analysis and supporting import from the STEP format. The applicability of the translator for the exchange of data on geometric models of single-contour geodesic domes with triangular plates between ArchiCAD and the Delcam Exchange converter program is verified. It is demonstrated that the STEP file format generated by the OBJSTEPTranslator is recognized by an external program.

Context.— Continuing education improves the quality of medical care and is a required part of most health care professions. Although a variety of educational modules are available online or at external conferences, completion of these activities can be expensive and time-consuming. In addition, externally produced modules may have limited applicability to a local practice. Objective.— To assess the ability of an economically efficient, locally produced, department-wide pathology educational seminar to efficiently meet education requirements for a large number of employees in a large health system. Design.— A multiday continuing education symposium was produced annually from 2013 through 2019 at no cost to participants. Metrics related to attendance, number of educational sessions available for registration, and participant satisfaction were tabulated, trended, and compared with similar metrics tabulated from an external continuing education conference that was offered from 2011 through 2012. Results.— The production of an internal, hospital-based educational symposium increased employee attendance (mean of 635 attendees per year versus 247 at the external program; P < .001) while reducing mean annual cost per attendee ($51 versus $140, P < .001). The number of sessions produced for the internal symposium was 39 per year on average, compared with 12 per year at the external program. Technical staff, residents, fellows, and faculty all contributed to internal educational programming, helping to build a team culture in the department. Overall employee satisfaction was 96.2%. Conclusions.— An internal educational pathology symposium led to cost-efficient distribution of continuing education credits to a large number of technical staff, with a high degree of reported employee satisfaction.

CO2 injection into subsurface formations is a potential method to reduce CO2 gas emissions in the atmosphere. Geological and geophysical studies are carried out as an effort to analyze the storage capacity and potential risks. The results are then used to analyze the response of reservoir rock to the injected CO2 fluid. The effect of fluid injection on reservoir rocks is complex and involves a coupled system of fluid flow-geomechanics. CO2 fluid injection can increase fluid pressure that affects the local stress conditions of reservoir and surrounding rock. Meanwhile, changes in temperature due to the presence of CO2 fluid also affect reservoir rock stress, although not significantly. The complexity of the subsurface reservoir system includes thermomechanical and hydromechanical analysis involving multi-phase and multi-component fluids. To study these complex interactions, a program which can simulate the coupling between multi-phase and multi-component fluid-flows-geomechanics is needed. To accommodate these needs, Rutqvist et al (2002) have proposed a numerical modeling approach by linking TOUGH2-ECO2N and FLAC3D. In this study we developed an external program that linking TOUGH2 with different fluid modul (ECO2M), and FLAC3D using these approaches to run the coupled THM simulation automatically and seamlessly until the end of simulation.

Abstract Background Burnout in graduate medical education is common and reported in ~70% of Internal Medicine (IM) residents. Most studies have described interventions focused on residency training, but fellowship training suffers from similar challenges and likely similar levels of burnout. After conducting a needs assessment amongst fellows within our Infectious Diseases (ID) fellowship program, we developed a wellness program to address these issues. Methods In Spring 2018, we reviewed the existing literature and consulted with local experts on trainee well-being. Based on our findings, we designed a multi-tiered approach to enhance wellness amongst fellows. An ID Fellowship Well-Being Committee (WBC) was created in September 2018 to lead the intervention. The WBC includes an even mix of fellows and faculty at multiple levels at all three main teaching hospitals associated with the program. Meetings occur every other month, and co-chairs (one faculty and one fellow) report back to the program director quarterly. Topic areas and interventions are described in Table 1. Fellows were sent a qualitative survey to evaluate the impact of the well-being interventions to date. Results Four of 5 first year fellows responded to the survey, and all felt the retreat should be repeated yearly. Themes identified from the survey included benefits of having protected time together, convening in a low pressure and informal setting to provide feedback, and spending quality time in a non-clinical setting with co-fellows. Fellows cited the wellness retreat as a strength at our annual fellowship external program review. Conclusion Burnout is likely high among IM sub-specialty fellows, and interventions are needed to support the well-being of those trainees. We describe a roadmap for the development of a well-being program at a relatively large, academic ID fellowship program led by a mixed fellow and faculty committee. We will continue to monitor data on fellow burnout and make programmatic changes based on feedback. We are hopeful that our work will empower other programs to engage in developing their own well-being programs. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

A final assessment of Carter’s character and musical preoccupations sparked by a 2012 Youtube video of a conversation between the composer and cellist Alisa Weilerstein. At 103 Carter still shows all the musical and intellectual acuity that the author remembers from the time he studied with him over forty years earlier. Carter describes aspects of his Cello Concerto as part of a story that is inherent in the notes themselves, not an external program. Three of Carter’s last compositions illustrate what he meant by “story” and how his sense that every note has life in it defines his distinct musical identity.
